Flavors that may contain Diacetyl, are there really this many?

Are you sure?

And what exactly causes emphysema? The most common cause is listed as "smoking". But what component in smoke causes it? I can't seem to find a good answer for this at all.
Like all other smoking "related" diseases, they don't know. Once some epidemiologist links tobacco smoke to a disease that the end. No matter the relative risk (never mind the actual risk), it's just blamed on tobacco smoke. And if any smoker gets a disease, it's automatically blamed on smoking.

Well I for one can completely understand where you're comming from. I have COPD and a bacterial infection in my right lung, so I can't afford to take any unnecessary risks. I too vaped flavor free for a time (for different reasons) and there are still some flavors I won't touch with a 40 foot barge pole!

Using a flavoring that contains diketones should be criminal? What? Maybe I read that wrong and you're saying that not admitting your flavor has diketones is criminal...

Either way... Not sure if I agree there. Particularly with the former interpretation.

There are lots of things in lots of products that we ingest everyday that can cause problems if used in a certain way at a certain amount... Water comes to mind.

Facts are facts... And fact is, we aren't inhaling these things the same way as people in the popcorn factories and there hasn't been anyone getting sick so... Again... Criminal? Come on now.

PS - if anyone is interested in CBD oil a company called Healthy Hemp Oil just sent an email to its customers. Spreading misinformation about the evil ejuices... Of course... These evil ejuices are available elsewhere... Not in their fine products... They even put a link to that Harvard article...

Ya know, that article that basically says some ejuices have diketones but fails to mention there is no evidence to support it being an actual problem...

N E Wayz, if you are scared of diketones, fine, I used to be, I get it, it's easy to be scared into thinking something is bad... But don't push inconclusive nothingness as evidence. Particularly if you are partly doing it to sell your own (less tasty I'm sure) ejuice.

Haven't been scared of the big bad diketones for a long time now... Haven't noticed any negative impact in health. Matter of fact, the longer I've been vaping the better and better I've been breathing... So... Cheers!
