Dear all vapers,

I'm Matteo, a new member, and hopefully a new Vaper very soon

As I'm young (24) and extremely sporty I decided to quit smoking (ANALOG), I have smoked since I was 15-16 yo. My strategy so far worked out rather well: from 15 analog fags average (Chestefield blue), I decided to quit by smoking Silk cut ultrasoft (3 per day) in the first week (I only bought a pack of it). The second week I decided and purchased a DISPOSABLE Habana look a like e-CIGAR from NUCIG website with low nicotine 6mg cartridge. This week I vaped only when desperate for some nicotine 3-4 times per day and for rather shorty periods (1-2 minutes max) but intensely inhaling the vapour. Now I'm pretty happy about the overall outcomes of this choice (as I'm saving good money) and start thinking to continue vaping and purchsing a proper vaping KIT.

Nevertheless I train almost everyday (jogging, ciclying, rowing), and I have to admit I found no satisfactory results on my respiratory function so far, on the contrary if compared to the week I smoked 3 Silk Cut pday, my respiratory, and in turn running performance are definitely worsened. I know my body and I feel like if I'm smoking 10 Analog P/D. After I vape I feel a bit heavy- chest .

So I started ask a question to myself.. why I'm smoking this sh*t that nobody really/empirically knows what effect has on my lungs and it proves to be not that good to me from my empirical test.....so I thought perhaps is better to Smoke... as the effects of Smoking are at least well know (extremely negative but well known)...while vaping...what if in ten years an impartial scientific research comes out stating that all that liquid is indeed toxic extremely carcenogic and it melts your lungs??.....perhaps I'd better to smoke some light Analog from time to time rather than explore and risk with this new stuff ???......well maybe that was a bit of a crisis.....but I have resisted and so I'm now writing to you....for your advise and objective feedbacks

Thus, my questions to you all are:

-is it possible that all this is a problem with my DISPOSABLE device/CIGAR? as I also noted a liquid spill from the junction between the Liquid cartridge and the upper body.....

-does vaping really and completely eliminates all the lung issue of smoking, like heavy chest, caugh, airways mucus and so forth?

-Do you honestly have had an appreciable improvement in Lung and respiratory functions from vaping in the long term?....

-is any of you an heavy sport addict like me and can convince me with his/her feedback?

I'm sorry for my poor English as it is not my native language, I'm Italian and in my country vaping is an extremely innovative topic, after receiving your unbiased feedbacks I really wanna become an early adopter and converse many people also there..where most of the (especially young ) people smoke like trains.

I thank you very much in advance for all your feedbacks and your help,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
and congrats to the forum that looks really like a helpful community
