Hello wightdaisy and welcome to the forum

[Ripshod]

Welcome aboard wightdaisy. Good to see you researching, you've found the right place now.

You'll find the main concern here is to help ourselves, and others, enjoy something that although hasn't been proven 100% safe, in the safest possible way. If we know something is wrong we speak up.

Hello & welcome wightdaisy

I've been vaping for just over 6 years & had no health issues from doing so - in fact the opposite

Hiya wightdaisy and a warm from me too

[djs]

I just want to say hi!

You'll be ok in my opinion. Almost nobody with an open mind is worried about vaping. Scientists without reason to be anti seem happy enough.

Hey there and welcome from new member to new member.
I have been vaping for a while now and did my research before and after.
I think it is important to make up your own mind whether it is for you.
In my opinion and from my research the vapor can not be worse than carbon monoxide, but thats just my opinion.

Little rant...
I understand the argument that glycerin is used in food, but do not believe that to be a good enough argument to say it is 100% safe. Reason being that the stomach can handle different things than your lungs. The argument of vaping for x years also does not provide much assurance as most smokers smoke for decades before they see the problems.

Please understand that I am not trying to make vaping look bad, as I am a huge fan myself. However, I do believe that each one of us needs to do some research and then weigh up the pros and cons to come to a decision.

One last little thing is that i tend to stick to the better known juices as bigger manufacturers tend to have better controls an process in place to prevent bad ingredients from being used. My thinking here is that they have more to loose and therefore need to be more careful than Fred in his shed.

i have to say even in the 3 months i've been vaping my health has really improved, just wish i found it sooner, but you have already given up the smokes, so i hope vaping will keep you off them and help you through your stressful time,

we are not saying it's 100% safe but better than the alternative smoking, we don't know what the outcomes of vaping will be in x number of years, but to me the proof it's better for me than stinkies is how much my health has already improved.
