No. It’s not even up for discussion. Vaping is not healthy for you. The problem, as evidenced so well in this thread, as well as with the public and media, is that people seem to have a very difficult time using science based evidence as opposed to rumours, half truths and fear mongering.


Very little is known about the long term health effects of vaping. Is it 1/10th as dangerous as smoking?1/100th?1/1000th?

Lots of things aren’t healthy for you. But not everything that isn’t healthy is deadly and needs to be outlawed. Can vaping be healthy in moderation? Is it the e-liquids? Coils? Nicotine? Overuse?

The current hysteria is quite worrying. Instead of studying vaping and finding ways to make it safer thru regulation, we’re seeing reactionary blanket bans, which won’t work it’ll just push things underground and make it more dangerous.

For now, I know it’s a better way to deal with nicotine addiction than smoking. Hopefully with further study and education we can avoid the massive overreactions we’re seeing and make a safer product.
