Yeah but every juice you vape has flavoring

Every "juice" ?

And I know some people who DIY at 25% Total Flavoring. And I know some who Max out at 3 or 4%. And about Everything in-between

And I know some people who Vape Unflavored or HOV (Hint of Flavor).

I quit smoking to be healthier . Not saying vaping is healthy I know it's not, but basically it's still bad for you and i'm worrying about health issues from it. Some will say well dont smoke or vape anything . That's not the case. Just annoying I guess, I'll prolly just start smoking again if that's the case.

Why would you go Back to Smoking? There Isn't Any Question about the Health Risks from Smoking.

Then again, they do also have a see also: "Snuggling With Your Kitten Could Kill You, Scientists Warn" Cat-Scratch Disease: How Snuggling With Your Kitten Could Be Deadly | The Huffington Post

The results are interesting. The results also show conventional cigarettes to be worse than ENDS products. " However, all tested carriers were significantly less toxic to H292 cells than smoke from tobacco cigarettes (table 3A, C)."

And this, which is sorta important " However, an important limitation of our study is that we did not look which of the flavouring compounds (as listed in table 2) caused this cytotoxicity and release of inflammatory mediators. Additionally, only one ENDS liquid product was tested for each flavour name (eg, strawberry). It remains to be determined whether other ENDS liquid products with the same flavour name that may contain an alternate flavour chemical composition yield a similar result." It is kind of tough to point to any particular flavoring when you've not identified it's source or actual composition.

Clearly testing flavorings is important to assure the safest use of vaping. More studies are bound to be published, some more relevant than others. I would like to reiterate that in every case, Strawberry included, they were less toxic than conventional cigarettes. Folks will have to decide for themselves what they wish to do based on this one study, including turning back to smokes.

Because every juice that I like is bad lol

Think of it This Way...

If you had Never Read that article, you would be Happy. Right?

And if something was a problem, you would hear it from Other Sources. Right?

And if something Was Really a problem, you would hear it from a Lot of Sources. Right?

So I say Kick Back, watch the AFC Championship Game, and if you start to see News Stories saying that people are Dropping Dead from Vaping Strawberry e-Liquids, then start to Worry.

I know, I know. Funny thing about it is I have read 5-6 different articles and they all say the same thing. Like the same test and everything so I think that only one test showed that , and who knows, it might be what the vendor put in the juice. Who knows if every strawberry flavor is like that. Yanno! I'm not going to worry though. It's much better than smoking , like y'all said

That article also says vaping at higher wattage is more dangerous. Unless they mean burning cotton that can't be a fact. Vapor is vapor, how fast you get there shouldn't make any difference. If one of their "facts" are wrong then I have to question the validity of the article in whole.

I think there's some validity to that one. Chemicals can break down into byproducts, at certain temperatures, that can be hazardous.

I don't think so because the liquid turns to vapor at a certain temperature and is inhaled. It doesn't stick around to heat up more. Once it gets to the vaporizing temperature it's in your lungs.

So, when you turn your wattage up the vapor doesn't feel warmer to you? It sure does to me.
