From what I’ve read, most of the damage from cigarettes comes not from nicotine but other carcinogens present along with the combustion. Of course more research needs to be done on nicotine itself as well as the other compounds present in vaping liquids.. but nothing I’ve read has indicated that nicotine is even close to being as dangerous on its own. It’s probably not harmless, but then again, many things people consume on a daily basis, like coffee, probably aren’t either.
- carbocation 8y agoYes, for people making bold claims about a major public health threat, I don’t see why I shouldn’t. The subtext is that this is a field that I’m very familiar with, but I’m willing to have someone show me evidence that I have missed. It’s hard to keep up with it all.
