I asked my sister to try the e-cig and she said that after looking into it, she can't because she's allergic to nuts and one of the sites said you can't vape if you are allergic to nuts...any input? Why not?
Thanks,
Jamie

Hi Jamie, I don't know much about this but there was a thread a while ago here - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...oes-anyone-here-have-nut-allergy-e-smoke.html
Some companies say there could be traces of nuts in their juice but I don't know if it applies to all.

Hi Jamie - In addition to that thread I have since noticed that e-cigs.co.uk specifically state which liquids could be a problem for nut allergies in the descriptions.
im mildly allergic to nuts...i mean i wont go into anaphylactic shock,but i definately get some symptoms...the throat constricts slightly,itching in the inner ear etc...not nice...but let me stress-im only slightly allergic...an antihistamine can usually clear mine up...
i can use most liquids that ive tried without feeling any appreciable effect...but i would avoid 555 liquid for instance...that one really is nutty,and i could feel an effect...
JC also advise people with nut allergies to avoid using their liquid...i used it and it had no problems with the flavours i tried...but if i were more at risk,id heed the warnings...
Smokester in the UK also offers warnings on some liquids to avoid if youre allergic to nuts...
i guess theres something nutty somewhere along the line...at least with some eliquids...
if i was really very allergic,and there was a chance of anaphylaxis,i wouldnt feel comfortable esmoking at all...given that we know practically nothing about the ingredients used in all eliquids,or the conditions under which eliquid is produced....
like a lot of stuff produced in China,its not something anyone seems to know much about...be very careful if youre at serious risk...

Allergy advice: This product may contain nut derivatives.
I presume the rest of his are safe but always best to ask.

Just a thought.
Say you are sitting on a plane vaping away with say Almond or Hazlenut and the person sitting next to you has an nut allergy , would it effect them ?.
Reason I ask
I know a plane was diverted due to someone having an attack and needing immediate treatment.
The crew knew they were allergic and did not give out nuts on the flight, also asked all passengers not to eat anything they were carrying with nuts in the ingredients.
They thought it happened due to peanut dust getting in to the Ac on a previous flight.
Would be a bit worring if excess vapour from an e-cig could trigger a reaction.
Any ideas ??.

Might have PG allergy or any other of a number of things. I doubt there's any real peanut in eliquid, though. You would feel pretty bad, but I would expect someone with that degree of allergy to be carrying around an adrenaline shot with them.
