I wouldn't say the medical proffesion so much but more the corporate pharmaceutical company's who push other nicotine replacement patches/devices also the cigarette manufactures.
It's always the case with dirty tricks/back handers/bungs to try and make a product look bad when the other bigger company's are losing profit from their own product

[bluecow1980]

camperman so true, and combined with the anti-smoking brigade who refuse to even consider "damage limitation" products (like e-cigs or smokeless tobacco), they have a very strong arm

[camperman]

And then theirs the secret handshake brigade the masonics, oh don't get me started on the ways of the world as I could own some eyes with the things I've learnt this past year

I'm not stressing about this.

As for weird stuff vape, I'm sure I remember one of our newer members saying they vaped olbas oil

The Olbas Oil sinner was actually me but I didn't vape it, I added it to Erinmore Mixture (pipe tobacco) and smoked it.

No Foxy, it was Nell, a fairly new member, that said she was vaping Olbas oil because she had a cold

The thought of that makes me feel so ill.Surely that stuff will cause alot of damage to the lungs.I hope Nell is ok and that she has stopped vaping it now.

[Chrissie]

Ian, we did try to tell her it wasn't a good idea

That's what I remember too.

Propylene Glycol, often abbreviated as PG, is a water soluble, thick liquid, that is colorless, clear, and nearly odorless. The CAS Number for Propylene Glycol is 57-55-6. The US Food and Drug Administration classified Propylene Glycol as GRAS, or "Generally Recognized as Safe.

Surely if PG is water soluble, it ain't an OIL >

Dee, Vegetable Glycerine is also water soluble so therefore also not an oil.

[jerryrm]

Vegetable Glycerine:

Vegetable glycerine is a compound that comes from vegetable oil, usually palm or coconut. It has strong humectant properties, meaning it is able to retain moisture. It is clear, colorless and very sweet. Because it is soluble in water and alcohol, natural and easily produced, it is beneficial for manufacturing purposes and is one of the most common additives in a range of products from cosmetics to food. There are many benefits to vegetable glycerine.
