Good find! Nice getting some positive spin for a change.

The nanny state thinks we are idiots. Is there really anyone out there who thinks I would pick up a vaporizer and begin to vape something without researching the h*** out of it to insure I know what it is and if it's harmful to me?

Apparently so.
 
I disagree with the report and others who suggest replacing PG with VG (or PEG).

IMO, PG is the safest as it is the only one that is completely heat stable (no decomposition).

Obviously there are some people who are allergic to PG and in this case, the risks from VG and PEG are not thought to be significant (certainly not in comparison to smoking).

I use VG to cut PG juices and try not to have VG at over 50% of the total (just my personal surmise of what should minimise VG decomposition; I would n't use VG at all in 5 and 6v mods).

I'm completely shocked people on here keep questioning what has already been reviewed.

If PG worries you, check the labels on your food. You're probably eating quite a bit of it already. Check your hygiene products.

We know a HELL of alot about PG, so what about it makes you "worry"? Its silly.

Also, this is a press release, fwiw.

Yeah, but inhaling PG all day is something we can't be sure about. I can go by how I feel though. I have absolutely no effect from vaping all day long, but you still just don't know.

Regardless, it is safer than cigarettes, but it would be nice to know more.

EDIT: Oh ffs, seriously? Sure, lets just censor links to places with information. Great idea.

Well, I'm pretty sure most of us on here started smoking at some point...
