More than a third of young adults are vaping and many of them are doing it even though they know vapes contain nicotine, Cancer Council data shows
You're viewing a single thread.
This article is total bullshit.
It claims at one point that vapes are being marketed as "nicotine-free" "despite containing nicotine" and then links to another article on their own site that makes the claim that vapes marketed as "nicotine-free" "most likely still contain nicotine" to support that assertion.
This definitely doesn't belong in a science community.
Additionally, there are nicotine free vapes and they're easy to identify if you spend 5 seconds looking at what you're buying. This is just another hit piece against vaping, citing itself as a reputable source, and making absolutely no point. They don't really say anything meaningful and instead just waive their hands around, acting as if what they're saying is troublesome. Even their headline is misleading and vapid.
Wait, aside from THC vapes what other nicotine free vapes are there? I'm assuming they're for people trying to quit?
There are many options that are the same flavor as a regular nicotine vape, but they're 0mg nicotine. Yes, for people quitting, or for people who just like vape but not nicotine.
That's kinda neat actually. Prolly still not great for your lungs though lol, and I say this as a stoner
I vaped 0 nicotine with peppermint flavor for about a year or so after I tapered down from the highest possible nicotine I could find using a box mod.
I've only been completely off the vape now for about 2 months but I allowed myself about 6 years to eventually work down to the 0 nicotine mix and I feel zero negative effects on my lungs. (Anecdotal, of course.)
I really only finally quit because I lost my favorite vape and decided I didn't really miss it all that much.
I definitely feel it on my lungs, but it's not anywhere near as damaging as cigarettes were.
Yup.
On par with any war on drugs funded prohibitionist drivel.
Yeah they even included the fearmongering tropes about colorful packaging and stores being near schools.
"They clearly are marketing directly to children!"
Bitch, I better never see you eating a piece of candy again in your life.
Raisin bran and black coffee only for you for the rest of your life, since according to you a) adults aren't allowed to like tasty things and b) noone is allowed to ingest something unhealthy.
Fuck, there is a strong argument that the cotton candy is worse for you than the cotton candy vape juice (provided its an actual non-black-market well made vape juice, and not the shit the Chinese black market has been spreading that is full of heavy metals).
Raisin Bran has more sugar than many “kids” breakfast cereals, so it’s even more hypocritical.
If you live in a decent city then everything is near schools. Schools should be sprinkled throughout your community, providing ease of access for people in different parts of town.
