Research suggest vapour contains carcinogens. Mail and globe

New research suggests some e-cigarettes deliver a puff of carcinogens - The Globe and Mail

Its the age old argument that 'they dont know'.

I will take my chances with vaping and place my trust in my suppliers that its 'pure' ingrediants in the juice i buy.

I see it as a push towards getting us vaping on the medically approved ecigs that are going through at the moment. Notice Njoy is mentioned. The researcher is a well know ANTZ and previous studies have been set up really poorly.
It shows the agenda when crap like this is published and the study hasn't even been released yet!

Notice the Name drop for Njoy?, obviously a friend of big T...

I am supprised the tobacco companies havent jumped and set up a veiled company and produced a decent ecig, they have the money, are able to do the research and get it all underway!

I really wish it was more about protecting consumer than protecting cash / revenue that is lost

 

[Gonloopy]

I'm sure they're working on it right now.
We already have I think 2 companies going through the medical regulation process at the moment with cigalikes I think. ( could be stood corrected on that )

 

[tartanthing]

Be nice to know who paid for the study.

Also...
Goniewicz, an assistant professor of oncology at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York, said people using the systems
“want more nicotine, but the problem is they’re also getting more toxicants.”

Really? what about zero nic users? I am deeply cynical about this whole puff piece.

Yet more rot. And I only read the opening statement.

Electronic cigarettes appear to be safer than ordinary cigarettes for one simple - and simply obvious - reason: People don’t light up and smoke them.

With the e-cigarettes, there is no burning tobacco to produce myriad new chemicals, including some 60 carcinogens.

But new research suggests that, even without a match, some popular e-cigarettes get so hot that they, too, can produce a handful of the carcinogens found in cigarettes and at similar levels.

It says they appear to be safer, then says, no burning so no new chemicals, including some 60 carcinogens.
Then says research suggests that, NOT, research has found that some carcinogens are produced.

In plain English, Yes e-cigs are safer, but there might be some chemical reaction when you burn your juice.

The tobacco companies, like the pharmacos, have no interest in giving vapers what they actually want. I'm still pretty convinced that the Vype, for example, was a spoiler product: very poor quality, but with enormous distribution and availability, which would be tried and thoroughly disliked by curious smokers, who would then think they had given ecigs a chance, and go quickly back to smoking.

Once it becomes clear that ecigs cannot be killed that way - a point which certainly ought to have been reached by now, but you never know - they'll come up with something slightly less terrible, but I wouldn't expect to see anything that would compete with RBAs. As we know, the ongoing costs to the consumer with RBAs are so ridiculously low, and the necessaries so generic, there isn't enough profit (or dependency) built in to that game...

Scaremongering again. See the quote "& i definitely wouldn't drip" Funny that eh ? Considering it would be the hardest area to regulate for them owing to the fact that the devices hold & non specified amount of e liquid. Well, screw them all, i can't get through the entire thing.
