The UK assessment on vaping said it probably is about 5% as bad as cigarettes. (Cigarettes are really bad for you, more than 3x as bad being obese)
So an entire day of heavy vaping probably takes about 9 minutes off your life, a little less time than eating a piece of bacon, a hot dog, or driving for half an hour.
- throw10920 4y ago> a little less time than eating a piece of bacon, a hot dog Sources for these? I've never heard this one before...
- srrr 4y agoThe 5% (or rather 95%) comes from: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/e-cigarettes-an-evidence-update https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/e-cigarettes-an-e...
- throw10920 4y agoI was specifically curious about the evidence that bacon/meats are that bad for you, any source for that?
- JamesBarney 4y agoThere isn't really much evidence that meats in general are bad for you. There is some evidence fatty meats or red meats aren't good for you. There is more evidence that fatty red meats are bad for you. And there is a lot of evidence that heavily processed(specifically cured) red meats such as hot dogs and bacon are bad for you. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacon Or you can just google cured meats mortality, bacon mortality, etc...
