Unless he's vaping juice without nicotine, there is still a cancer risk.
I used to chew nicotine gum to enhance my concentration but after reading research that nicotine by itself causes lung cancer I stopped.
- masonic 8y agoresearch that nicotine by itself causes lung cancer Reference, please? I haven't heard of a causal link between non-inhaled nicotine and lung cancer.
- uncoder0 8y agoI've tried to do research on this before and found very few studies looking at nicotine alone. I also never saw anything about a link between oral nicotine and lung cancer so I'm suspect of this claim as well.
- LinuxBender 8y agoThere are indeed some shady vape juice providers as I mentioned. Some even included heavy metals. People should research what they are buying and where it comes from. As for vaping itself causing cancer, I would be interested in seeing the studies and who is funding them. Applying any heated material to your tissue can increase the probability of cancer, just about as much as walking in the sun for a short period of time. This is still substantially lower risk that sucking tar/smoke that is radio-active, which all cigarettes are. If someone outlaws vaping, I will help my son avoid said laws until such a time that people snap out of it.
- esturk 8y agoNicotine by itself is not a carcinogen. There could be other substances that causes cancer inside the gum.
