Everyone who uses an ecig should read this report.

I don't know how I stumbled on this report, but I found it in an old thread here on ECF. Health New Zealand did some extensive lab tests on Ruyan e-cigarettes, and this is the report:

I know this report is old, and the original thread can be found here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/105617-nicotine-exhaled-vapor.html

Tons of good info on everything that goes in, and out, of an ecig. I found it amazing that propylene glycol vapor is bactericidal.

I apologize if this is old hat, but I found it absolutely fascinating.

Actually this is the report that got me looking into e-cigs, had never heard of them before Reuters did a story on this.

I do not like this part of said report

. Glycol fogs in
particular were associated with acute cough and dry throat. Those with greater proximity
to fog source showed significantly decreased lung function.

I have noticed that my lungs have not 'bounced back' and cleared themselves out like the other three times I've quit smoking in my life... I do notice an increase in lung function, but not of the same level that I experienced every other time I quit smoking analoges... which makes sense now reading that passage... guess inhaling anything other than clean air can be considered 'bad' for you though.
