Vaping with the doctor on Steve Wright (radio 2)

[Deleted]

Should be on here - www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006wr4r sometime soon. Reckon it was after about 1 hr 30-35 minutes? Don't know

Pretty positive . But still not quite there

However - another media medic saying 95% safer than stinkies - that'll do me!!!

Heard it just now. The Doc confused smoking with vaping..said smoking to cover all. Then went to the default nothing is safe (who'd of thunk it?). And then backed the 95% better than 70 odd combustion ingredients.

So they (BBC Wright prog) promoted vaping...unlike the EU and Govt who promote smoking with a blanket TPD.

oh..was looking for a coconut recipe and saw this on a comment to a coconut recipe: (TheVapeBook.com)

"I notice that there is a note on the Perfumer's Apprentice website specifically discouraging their vanilla Custard flavor for use in vapeing due to the presence of harmful chemicals.... quoting from website...

"*** contains both "Custard" ingredients (acetoin and acetyl propionyl) -

Please see our information section on these ingredients in the Flavorist Corner (lower left of the screen)


****** This flavor should only be used in Food and Cosmetic applications.
****** This flavor (no matter what company makes it) has inhalation risks if it contains either Acetoin or Acetyl Propionyl!"

Cant say Im really worried about these chemicals being included in e liquid. What most people miss when quoting these things is that they are also found in tobacco smoke at between 10 and 100 times the concentration found in vapour.
Its probably a good enough idea to avoid them if we can but I like that buttery creamy flavour. Even if there is a small risk its still miles better than smoking.
