The British sources tend to be better rounded and studies tend to be independently funded. Most American 'studies' are low key funded or sponsored by big tobacco or one of their affiliates, which is why you generally only hear the bad and ugly about vaping.

IMO...vaping isn't best thing in the world and there hasn't been enough time to know the longitudinal health effects yet. But with that said, there's a lot worse habits a person can have and it has to be less harmful than smoking

Yeah, I agree. Was living in Asia in a city where smoking was pretty prevalent, picked smoking back up (smoked when I was younger many moons ago) and when I came back I had a hard time stopping so switched to vaping. Now working on that. And then I work my way down the tree to the other bad habits I have :-)

Thanks all. I will check out the links and the podcast today!

I don’t understand vaping. You look like a douche, and you’re inhaling chemicals into your lungs. Very smart.

The truth will only come out from longitudinal studies. But, I’d stick with common sense that your lungs weren’t made to inhale artificial minuscule particles. Worry about things like blood clots.

The idea of inhaling vapor (aka a liquid based molecule in its gaseous state) scares me—all that liquid getting stuck in your lungs can cause pneumonia. If I vape for more than a month I get bad phlem. Just my uneducated point of view.

What if we taught students (and ourselves) to humbly subordinate to an objective truth about the world?

What if we spent more time studying and conforming to that truth than reflecting on our feelings about it?

I believe we'd see a lot less anxiety and depression. Questions like "Who am I," "Why am I here," and "Where am I going" wouldn't be so crippling and terrifying. We could look beyond ourselves and marvel at the beauty of a universe greater than ourselves.
