In a report released last year, the FDA said it conducted a preliminary review of a few e-cigarettes and found poor quality control. Some cartridges that claimed not to contain nicotine actually did, and one of the 18 samples had trace amounts of diethylene glycol, a chemical used in antifreeze that is toxic to humans. The FDA says the amount of nicotine delivered varies and isn't standardized, which also raises safety concerns.
If that's what they are concerned about, why don't they go make the manufacturers of food supplements standardize quality and accurately label the vitamins and minerals in their products and leave us alone?
