Here's what I have so far. I know I'm a little crappy with them in it, but it's because I know how these two are. And they are totally closed minded.
You might not have tried a "good" e-cig Ryan. There's tons of crap ones, and a few good ones. The only real way to find out which ones are good is to find a forum on them and read up.
Second, all those ingredients, may be in certain liquids. But not all of them at once, lol. And even if, just because it has a funny name, or is labeled a chemical, doesn't mean it's bad for you. I mean, s***, waters technically a chemical.. No one buys liquids from China either. There are plenty of trustworthy US vendors that make quality liquids.
And for Chantix, well, I'll just google that like you did with "what is bad about e-cigs" and paste it:
All patients being treated with CHANTIX should be observed for neuropsychiatric symptoms including changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, and suicide-related events, including ideation, behavior, and attempted suicide. These symptoms, as well as worsening of pre-existing psychiatric illness and completed suicide have been reported in some patients attempting to quit smoking while taking CHANTIX in the post-marketing experience. When symptoms were reported, most were during CHANTIX treatment, but some were following discontinuation of CHANTIX therapy.
These events have occurred in patients with and without pre-existing psychiatric disease. Patients with serious psychiatric illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder did not participate in the pre-marketing studies of CHANTIX and the safety and efficacy of CHANTIX in such patients has not been established.
