Yeah there's the interesting issue of popcorn lung, which comes from inhaling a certain chemical, diethyl. I don't think it's in juul.

- techrat 5y agoThe 'popcorn' issue is pretty much linked to one artificial flavor... Diacetyl... anything that involves a buttery taste. Often found in microwave popcorn, hence popcorn lung. Custards, a popular group of vape flavors, was the main source of it. The catch? Diacetyl is also a byproduct of cigarette smoking. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/10408444.2014.882292?journalCode=itxc20 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/10408444.2014.88... The risk was not considered to be noteworthy among cigarette smokers and food workers who had higher exposure to the chemical diacetyl... > Further, because smoking has not been shown to be a risk factor for bronchiolitis obliterans, our findings are inconsistent with claims that diacetyl and/or 2,3-pentanedione exposure are risk factors for this disease. So basically... vaping causes popcorn lung = FUD.
