Hello there fellows, how are you guys :D

Well you don't know that because I never told it here, but I do work on the medical field, and I understand a bit on the investigation on long term effects of Drugs/substances and their impact on the human being.
In the case of the popcorn lung comming from dyacetil well, that is a totally unfunded story, without any scientific proof attached to it, what I mean is in other words, there is no evident or consistent proof that links the Dyacetil inhalation to the effect/risk of contracting popcorn lung disease. Where do I base my conclusion from ? Simple grab a cigar any cigar we can easily get the constitution of the components needed and present on the processing of the tabacco until the final product CIGAR is present for human consumption, one of those components among 2000+ substances capable of harming the human body is the DYACETIL.

Right so In all story life of human kind has in contact with the CIGAR there is NONE, not even one isolated case of popcorn lung reported, and further more there is NO, NONE importance given to the presence of this component they call Dyacetil.

Now comparing combustion to vaping, the first thing that stands out is, temperature vaping temps are way lower than combustion, does this high temperature affect the molecular structure of this dyacetil? I DON'T KNOW!!! WHY? they don't care about it.

This leads me to draw a conclusion, Dyacetil is nothing other than a good escape goat for the anti vape society, and for the pro tabacco companies that FINANCIALLY benefit from humans consuming tabacco products.

What you guys need to understand is that VAPING is now threatening the giants tabacco industry, and when it involves big lobbys like tabbaco companies they will find all lies to deter people from adhering to stuff other then TABACCO.

Well I could go on and on about this, but I have patients waiting for me :P

speak soon friends.


Ps - VIC mentions a few documents that are worth a read boring stuff but worth a read for the most concerned and uninformed ones.
PEACE
 
I’ve got a friend who’s husband stopped smoking and started vaping. A nurse told him he’d get popcorn lung. He stopped vaping and started smoking again. Folk in the medical field should know better

That's so uninformed and bad form of that nurse. I hope she didn't prescribe him carrots to improve his eyesight.

un fookin belivable.
ive worked in a hospital for the past 37 years in xray and must have checked at least 2 million chest xrays.
a nurse could be at the worst struck off for telling a patient that info especially using the term popcorn lung as they are not medically certified and only a doctor can give that info and then they would NEVER call it popcorn lung.
here is the medical terminology https://radiopaedia.org/articles/obliterative-bronchiolitis

@Annelouise send a copy of this thread to your friend to try and get her hubby back off the cigs and back to vaping.
 
I wasn't worried about either of these things, but that's cos i'd never heard of popcorn lung or diacetyl before!
 
I really like diacetyl. And I’m not worried about the popcorn lung rumour.
 
As with most things education is the answer . Do the research and make up your own mind , I know I feel much better vaping than I did after 30 years smoking . Articles like this give you information you need to make informed decisions, keep up the good work .
