• Carcinogens- chemicals known to cause cancer, including acetaldehyde and formaldehyde
• Acrolein – a herbicide primarily used to kill weeds, can cause irreversible lung damage
• Diacetyl – a chemical linked to a lung disease called bronchiolitis obliterans aka "popcorn lung"
• Diethylene glycol – a toxic chemical used in antifreeze that is linked to lung disease
• Heavy metals such as nickel, tin, lead
• Cadmium – a toxic metal found in traditional cigarettes that causes breathing problems and disease
• Benzene – a volatile organic compound (VOC) found in car exhaust
• Ultrafine particles that can be inhaled deep into the lungs

There are facts and then there's Skidmark

Fuck off skidmark, you wanker.

A but like stating that Arsenic is safer than Strychnine, but then it's Skiddy so to be expected.

Next time you see a bunch of Koreans in Thailand (or anywhere for that matter), the massive suitcases they are carrying will almost always include Korean rice...

That is not objectively true at all. But whatever. I wont waste much of my time debunking shit that is driven by pure sentimentalism.

Vaping is 95% safer than smoking

ATHRA: Vaping is 95% safer than smoking. Fact or factoid?

Where did the estimate come from?


This estimate is based on comprehensive, independent reviews of the scientific evidence by both Public Health England (the English Government Public Health agency) and the Tobacco Advisory Committee of the UK Royal College of Physicians.


Both organisations came to the same conclusion, PHE in 2015 and again in its second review of the evidence in 2018, and RCP in 2016.


The Royal College of Physicians put it this way:


"Although it is not possible to precisely quantify the long-term health risks associated with e-cigarettes, the available data suggest that they are unlikely to exceed 5% of those associated with smoked tobacco products, and may well be substantially lower than this figure"

Most of the harmful toxins in smoke are completely absent from vapour. Those that are present are at much lower concentrations, mostly at levels below 1% of what they are in smoke.

What you don't seem to understand, skidmark, is that neither are healthy
