How have I missed this? NIH concludes e-cig emissions pose no apparent risk - from Oct. 2012?!?!

[Barbara21]

Here's a link to the abstract in PubMed from Oct. 2012. Comparison of the effects of e-cigarette vapor... [Inhal Toxicol. 2012] - PubMed - NCBI (Go ahead, read it - it's short.)

The byproducts measured were VOCs, carbonyls, PAHs, nicotine, TSNAs, and glycols.

CONCLUSION

For all byproducts measured, electronic cigarettes produce very small exposures relative to tobacco cigarettes. The study indicates no apparent risk to human health from e-cigarette emissions based on the compounds analyzed.

(bolding/italics mine)

The NIH is the National Institute of Health, part of the U.S. Department of Health. The abstract actually comes from NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), a division of NIH.

I thought I'd done my research but missed this one until yesterday. (Please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't know about this.)

The real problem is the affect of ecigs on big pharma.

The real problem is the affect of ecigs on big pharma's campaign money.

Barbara, Nice catch!

 

[TLS01]

Big Pharma and most of the media will not report positive research findings. It's a damn shame really.

SALVATION IS NEAR!

Fear not the future of your ecigs.

Big tobacco is buying up ecig companies and developing their own ecig products.

The white night, in the form of BT, will arrive soon.

NOBODY MESSES WITH BT!

Of course, there may be slight cost for this valuable service.

That's the IVAQS study sponsored by the National Vapers Club...

Here is another article covering it. This website several other articles on PG and electronic cigarettes.

This was a great find. Now we can quote that the government and even better National Institute of health claims there is no risk from second hand vapor.

OOPS. my mistake it wasn't an NIH study.

Fixed the link. At first I had that message and then it went it the right page. I didn't notice the url when I copied it.
