So apparently e-cigs have 10x more cancer causing ingrediants than cigaretts LOL

[crashhat69]

One of my facebook friends posted an e-cig article and the title of it was "e-cigs have 10x more cancer causing ingredients than cigarettes" . I would like to be there when they "test" these things so I could see how their testing them and what brand of e-cig their testing.

Assume he's referring to the thoroughly debunked Japanese formaldehyde study where 1 of the 10 disposable atties tested (that they insanely overheated, well beyond dry-hit land, and anything a human could tolerate) released large amounts of formaldehyde.

Ask your friend if he understands how the lungs work/their response to toxins, if he does, he should understand that human lungs are irritated by formaldehyde in concentrations as little as 5ppm. In others words no human could ever inhale what was generated in the "study". It's akin to burning a steak till its a charcoal briquet and then saying "Steaks are loaded with carcinogens, and therefore deadly".

If anything, you're able to tolerate higher levels of formaldehyde production (and its most certainly being produced) when smoking cigarettes due to the anesthetic effect that the smokes chemical cocktail has on the lungs/airway.

Only idiots or politicians believe this.

Yep another piece of junk science gaining traction because enough people repeat it social media is the perfect tool for scare mongering rubbish as there is no shortage of "too much time on their hands drama queens" to act really shocked and pretend they are protecting others by spreading manure far and wide.

I hope they all wear numbers or we'll never tell them apart.

I have a feeling that the big cigarette companies are behind 99% of these "studies" just to try and scare people into not switching.

Seeds of dissent grow well in the freshly plowed fields of ignorance and fear.

Yeah, and Johnny Appleseed must have actually planted "seeds of ignorance" all over this country, because it seems about ~80% of the population have eaten those apples.

That's the point.. Maybe they could show how hard you have to try to blow-up a vape. Doesn't really matter since the truth is treated as the worst kind of propoganda these days. It doesn't really matter what proof you have supporting the truth. The sheeple will believe what they are told to believe and be happy. Good liars are almost always the more believable of speakers.

Heres another...

It is the nature of humankind to fear what they do not understand. Their ways are not our ways.

Finding cancerstuff in e liquid is the ANTZ holy grail. So far, after millions of dollars spent, they were only able to produce it through:

- burning the e-liquid
- burning the wicks
- mixing e-liquid with paint

And they become politicians and lawyers

'dissent', 'fields', 'ignorance'. I let 'plowed' go, but if you are English, then that would be 'ploughed' too.

Rarely does a post encapsulate the problem so succinctly.

Don't forget there was recently a "report" circulating, on FB, about a shipment of oranges injected with HIV+ blood.
