They may look like travel shampoo bottles and smell like bubblegum, but after a few hundred puffs, some disposable, electronic cigarettes and vape pods release higher amounts of toxic metals than older e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes, according to a study from the University of California, Davis. For example, one of the disposable e-cigarettes studied released more lead during a day’s use than nearly 20 packs of traditional cigarettes.
Do these threats exist in the exhaled smoke? It seems like people around me don’t GAF about the exhaust from vapes.
Those people are jackasses and should be shamed. I quit a 6 year cigarette smoking habit with just one year of using an actual vape, not these shitty gas station things. One of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. The potential for smoking cessation is there. But stupid and obnoxious people set the basis for stereotypes.
The amount of nicotine one gets per puff in a vape is greater than a cigarette. As cigarettes are generally being made illegal, big tobacco needs to circumvent the law (which governments usually give multiple years notice to relevant companies). Sadly, using vapes is not giving up cigarette smoking but merely moving addiction from one nicotine method to another. Teens vaping causing a life-long addiction is no different from teens smoking and doing the same.
Yeah, I know where my vape came from and it wasn’t “big tabacco”.
Saying vaping is worse than cigarettes is unbelievably fucking stupid.
I just said I used a vape for smoking cessation and so do countless others.
Nice try Marlboro Man!
It’s so fucked that every single actor in the Marlboro commercials died of lung cancer. All of them.
Where? Why? Is it a quality control issue or an inherent danger of the technology?
People want to ingest a harmful drug and not see that as a threat to their health?
Nicotine isn’t really harmful, aside from the rediculously addictive nature it’s what a vasoconstrictor?
Much like caffeine it has some decent properties for focus / cognitive abilities.
The main downfall is how it’s consumed by the majority of the population. Durries are overall awful. The stench, accidental burns and all the inhaling burning plant matter leading to cancer thing.
Nicotine can be bad for your cardiovascular health. It can lead to hardening of arteries over time. Vasoconstrictive effects of nicotine are also really bad for oral health and can encourage development of gingivitis/gum disease, a reminder that loss of gums can be permanent. I vape, been trying to quit, been on and off. It’s an insidious habit to kick. I won’t discount that it can be good for focus tho, lol.

lobby harder.
Hard to argue with a solid argument such as “lol.” You really showed them who’s right.
lol #3
(It was such a stupid statement, one doesn’t need to).
Yeah it’s totally because everything is “stupid” and not the fact that you have no argument outside of superficial fearmongering which falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. It’s so stupid that you keep replying with nonsense talking about how anyone else’s statements are unworthy of replying to 🙄
superficial
You’re right. Cancer is superficial damage. Speaking of which, enjoy your cancer.
