RE: How I Easily Quit Smoking After 15 Years (If You've Thought About Quitting, Please Read)

in #health7 years ago

Nicotine isn't carcinogenic but it is highly toxic, one jar of candy flavoured e-juice is enough to kill a child or for that matter an adult. Another thing to worry about is those fruity flavours, look up POCORN LUNG!

Sort:  

Yup, thanks for reminding me, I actually need to cover all this.

Popcorn lung is a condition caused by diacetyl(?), a chemical that flavors stuff like microwave popcorn. It's okay to eat, but apparently very bad to inhale...Personally, I try to avoid the buttery flavors (found in a lot of the creamy desert flavors).

And yea, if you're mixing your own e-juice, the nicotine MUST ALWAYS BE child/pet proof and secured!

When I read about popcorn lung they warned about fruity flavours I think berry not sure though.

the popcorn lung is from diacetyl, but personally, i would be wary of anything i was unfamiliar with or didn't trust. it's nice to have a choice though :) you can vape 100% VG and ramp up the risk from there as much as you're comfortable with XD
