    If the FDA says it hasn't tested vaping PG, what about the PG in analogs? It's always been there as a humectant, and analogs have been tested to death for years.

    Well - I really don't think we want them referring to that research - do we?

    A better path would be the use in Asthma and other medical inhalers - The FDA did approve them in nebulizer type devices which are very similar to vaping - To say PG is unsafe for vaping would be an admission of improper approval for medical use and they would would end up contradicting themselves on the issue of inhalation if they present such a view - They would have to say something like - "Well sure it's safe to inhale if you have respiratory ailments - but - not if you are healthy" - Who would buy that?? - If something is safe for an asthma patient to inhale - How could it be unsafe for others? Keep in mind these statements will most likely be made in a court or hearing setting and any decent lawyer would rip that stance to shreds -

    What I find shocking is that in their language they do not say only that the FDA has not tested them - They actually say that there has been NO KNOWN TESTING done on PG for inhalation and both statements are blatantly false - FDA has approved PG numerous times for multiple purposes - This is not about science it's about money and politics - The political battle lies in the exposing of the false and contradictory statements being made by the FDA - The scientific battle does not even exist - PG has been tested again and again with uses so similar to vaping that the argument is plain ridiculous

    I agree, The FDA is out of Gas on PG not being safe. It will be intresting to see what they will say in the SE case that needs a answer today.
