what do you think about vaping?

I don't like the word "healthier" to describe vaping. Healthier implies it's nourishing you in some way. It's safer than smoking, but it's not healthy for you to vape.

I stopped smoking 9 years ago because of bronchitis or something every year. The last year was really bad. Plus it's too expensive. Picked up vaping and haven't had any lung issues since. I make my own liquid that's 2.5% nicotine so not sure if I'm even feeling it or if it's a placebo.

I don't think we fully know the long term effects since it's still relatively new. People can smoke cigarettes for decades before getting serious health problems/death.

I quit smoking but chew a ton

currently having blackbull (twist mixed with ash)
but even getting tired of chewing tbh

My dad got throat cancer after he started dipping. He smoked when he was younger, quit for years, then started doing Copenhagen. Got the throat cancer treated then picked up cigarettes again. Eventually died of copd/covid.

another thing. When I'm at work I respect the employer's wish that I do not be on my phone during working hours so I expect my employer to respect my time outside of work by not trying to contact me through phone or e-mail. I barely have time to myself so I would appreciate not having to worry about work when I get a day off. Not fair that my phone has to put away in a locker, but an employer still expects me to have my phone with me 24/7. People saying VAPING is helping them feel better after quitting smoking instead of saying NOT SMOKING is helping them feel better after quitting smoking.

it makes cigarette/tobacco makers shit their pants, so they're kinda good on that department

Enjoy popcorn lung in exchange for your money

Except there has never been direct evidence of vaping causing popcorn lung, and even there were, the chemical that causes it is no longer used in vape juice. So how does it feel to be so wrong?

Hmm. I have this guy tagged as bad faith. No idea why.

The study itself states the liquid causing it has been removed from products. Did you even read your own study you posted.

I think we need research on popcorn lung for people who started vaping after the removal of said chemical.

If your claim is that vapes used to have a chemical that is linked to pop corn lung I dont disagree with that at all.

Again this might be a US vs UK thing where we have better regulations in place.
