I was introduced to vaping in February of 2013 by my friend Kevin who works at Vape Revolution in Cerritos<\/a>. It is called vaping by those who do it rather than call it e-cigarettes because it’s technically not a cigarette or even looks like one. Yes, there are personal vaporizers that look like cigarettes but when you really get into vaping you use devices that look nothing like cigs.<\/p>\n

This past year there has been a meteoric rise in the use of e-cigs and vaporizers. Now governments are getting all crazy and starting to ban them as of the perceived “health risks”. This is bull shit.<\/p>\n

Here is one article talking about how we should not ban vaping and instead should glamorize it.

Are e-cigs\/vaporizers 100% safe\/healthy?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t know for sure but I can say now that i’m completely 100% vapor and no cigarettes at all I feel tremendously better. I don’t stink. My clothes don’t stink.<\/p>\n

I do know for sure that Vapor (juice) has none (or almost none) of any of the harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke. E-juice is made with Vegetable Glycerin, Propylene Glycol<\/a> and Flavorings. The juice is then turned into a vapor and inhaled.<\/p>\n

Why vaporizers instead of Nicotine Patch\/gum\/mint\/etc?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ve tried the gum, patch and mints. They don’t give me the satisfaction. At one time I would use the patch and smoke at the same time.<\/p>\n

Who is behind the “banning” of e-cigs?<\/strong><\/p>\n

IMO it is the pharmaceutical industry and large tobacco.<\/p>\n

Large tobacco is scared that smokers have found a fun enjoyable way to get their nic-fix w\/o buying cigs. Pharmaceutical companies are scared that people wont by nicotine gum\/patch\/mint or take prescription drugs to kick the smoking habit.<\/p>\n

Here is a slide from a presentation done by Lorillard and Wells Fargo<\/p>\n
