Blondie Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 A friend of mine who is now vapping has an aunt who is a respiratory therapist. She said that vapping is no better than smoking. Said that nicotine inhaled paralyzes things in the lungs and that vapping is not any better than smoking... Hugh How can that be??? My friend even asked her dr. before she started to vape and he told her " by all means yes, switch to an ecig ". Has any one heard of such a thing??

vapemudgeon Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Eggs are good for you no bad for you. The world is freezing no its warming........ People shoot at anything they aren't involved in. I googled nicotine and lung paralysis and found plenty of information on the subject. Just browsing it seems it was all in regards to smoking. So, is the claim, due to nicotine or any of the other thousands of chemicals in cigarettes. Lets face it chronically ingesting any foreign chemical into your body, whether it be nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, smog or nuclear waste can't be good for long term health.... But neither is driving on the freeway !!! No one gets out of here alive !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speakeasy Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Your friend's aunt who is a respiratory therapist obviously doesn't work for the FDA. Because they approved a nicotine inhaler a few years back that is being sold over the counter by thousands of pharmacies world-wide as a nicotine replacement therapy that they say is perfectly safe. This response was cheerfully provided by a RN with 22 years of professional experience who happens to vape like a mad man while texting on his cellphone at speeds exceeding 75mph. Is that bad? Is that wrong? Should I not be doing that? lol, Nobody gets out of here alive..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacker1229 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Your friend's aunt who is a respiratory therapist obviously doesn't work for the FDA. Because they approved a nicotine inhaler a few years back that is being sold over the counter by thousands of pharmacies world-wide as a nicotine replacement therapy that they say is perfectly safe. it was the clinical trial for the nicotine inhaler that I took part in. It was an 18 month studay at Stanford. They checked my lungs and blood every week. the only problem I had with the studay was giving up 2 test tubes of blood every week -- I now have a fear of needles that didn't exist before the study.

I'm going to use this in every argument myself; you put it in a way that would be hard to deny -- though I can hear it now. Thanks, that's good stuff. I'm so happy to have quit smoking - Today! Finally! - that I'm walking round like I'm king of the planet. No more analogs for this middle aged fat man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rant away my friend. I to am sick to death of the Govt. worming its way into every facet of our lives. I am a proud American and attended as many T-Partys as I could. If I choose to vamp who is Congress to tell me I can't. Hell, half of them don't even pay their taxes. You can bet whenever the Govt. says its going to protect you its code for control you.
