Vaping has 'immediate' negative impact on the body's circulation, warns new study
Vaping has 'immediate' negative impact on the body's circulation, warns new study
American researchers have identified the acute effects of smoking cigarettes and vaping on vascular function - even without nicotine.

No shit, nicotine like all other stimulants like vyvanse or Adderall or even coffee are all vasoconstrictors. So are 5-HT2A psychs like shrooms and LSD.
The findings in nic free juice are interesting though. I'd also like it if there was a study on nicotine salts specifically.
Older vapes used freebase nicotine, quite unpleasant in high doses, like 6mg/10ml, so we vaped a lot of juice with a smaller nicotine concentration.
On the other hand nic salts are a very different ballgame, elfbars have like 24mg/10ml strength and you feel no throat hit at all. It feels "unnatural" and vibes tell me to worry.

Yeah, this "study" feels a lot like "science finds that the sky appears blue" right up until you get to the nic free stuff. The heck?
I'm curious to say the least.
I too would like to see the nic salt differences.

Raynaud's, Nic, caffeine and Elvanse - no better combo for having feet cold enough to be a weapon.

During three separate sessions, participants had two MRI scans each—one before and one after smoking or vaping episodes, which included tobacco cigarettes, e-cigarette aerosol with nicotine, and e-cigarette aerosol without nicotine.
Should be noted these results are present for cigarettes too.

Yeah, but that doesn't make for catchy headlines.
So far the "negatives" for vaping is almost always something that already happens for smoking, but it's overshadowed by the fact that smoking via combustible products is carcinogenic, and "gives you cancer".
Anything that can be said negatively about vaping, is generally 100x worse with smoking, plus, smoking gives you cancer, so......
Long story short: vaping is less bad than smoking.
This does not and should not imply that it is good for you. It is simply less harmful.

Plus you look dumb. Ought to be enough of a deterrent right there!
OP: I don't mean you!

Remember “popcorn lung” whatever happened to that?
-
One of the only situations where an entire industry self-regulated out diacetyl(sp?) due to common sense.
I personally couldn't believe it when I saw it happen. Everyone just kinda agreed and started pulling all of it. Extract companies started labeling shit... I was flabbergasted.

Wasn't that from a specific additive? Reputable sources wouldn't include it.
-
Certain flavorings contain a diketone chemical. They were mostly used in butter or cream flavors.
Orignal vape juice contained Nicotine, Vegetable Glycerin, and Propylene Glycol. Then a flavoring was added to make it taste.
The flavorings are used in baking or even making popcorn. "Safe" to eat but not to inhale.
People that worked in movie theaters would develop "popcorn lung" from breathing in the butter flavoring all day. That's where the term comes from.
Any reputable vape juice company would not use these flavorings today.
