This is not a hardcore drug, it will not ruin your life. You do not need to detox from vaping when you quit. Vaping has allowed me to leave ciggarettes, and because of that I will have better health. VAPING IMPROVES HEALTH OVER CIGGS. I am not saying vaping is healthy. not by any means. I am saying that it is better for you than ciggs. So if you really want to lower the cost of insurance vaping should be a requirement for people who smoke ciggs. Ciggs should be illegal and vaping promoted. Not the other way around.

    I don't know much about vaping, but from what people say, it's a step down from smoking, so that's a good thing. I just hope there can be some kind of safe industry standard, as with all products, so people stop getting sick from it.

    Again. People are not getting sick from vaping. Tthey are getting sick from illegal marijuana vape cartridges. not regular vape.

    these days because industry lobbyists and other insiders have been installed to "run" them (mostly into the ground!). So IMO we have to do a little more looking out
    for ourselves until hopefully (?) the current situation gets resolved. And it may not, if more people don't start paying attention. :rolleyes: When industries of ANY kind are
    the ones testing their products & promising "safety", do you really think they'll tell you the truth? Or worry most about their profits? Just saying...

    You are speaking as if Vaping is controlled by the same big companies that control Ciggs. Where I go to get my juice is a small group of stores, maybe 20 in total. and they have been selling vapes for about 8 years. They haven't had one person in 8 years come forward and say I got sick from vaping. Despise what you think they are not out to make us sick, in fact most people that own vape stores are doing it because the actually believe in vaping and what it can do for everyone who smokes ciggarettes. Where I go to get my juice uses 100% vegan and natural ingredients.

    Vaping saves lives. Plain and simple.

    Surely we won’t know the true extent of damage done by vaping for another’s ten or twenty years ?


    I still worry what those super high temps ( up to 250C apparently) are doing to all the different additives/ fluids/ flavours.

    getting upset over someone elses view is just stupid. everyones views is based on their experiences. you have to accept that others wont always agree with you.

    The sad thing is that this forum is practically unique in that we can always discuss things and like this and remain civil .. . It’s nothing like that in many other places
