I started vaping in early 2012, dropping a pack a day (at least) habit. Marb or camel menthol and a big ‘ol Burl Pipe was my thing back then.
I’ve heard over and over and over in the last few days more bullshit from people out in public about vaping than I’ve heard in the last couple years. I’m not afraid to correct them, I’m not afraid to use my words to prove them wrong. I do it on the daily.
In August 2011 my pulmonary function was ~10% normal adult function, I was in the process of getting approved for supplemental oxygen, getting tested for sleep Apnea and other medical conditions.
By the beginning of 2013 and one full year of using vapor products, I had recovered to ~95% lung function. Multiple tests were performed at the same hospital over that year. Peace health in Bellingham, WA.
My risk of heart attack and lung cancer are that of a non smoker. My COPD and Asthma are well controlled without the use of anything except a rescue inhaler once in a while. I’m not constantly sick now either.
I don’t want to hear ANYONE say that “vaping is bad for you, it’ll cause popcorn lung, that thing is gonna blow your face off, those things are worse for you than cigarettes“…. or some other Bullshit that has been posted about by media, pseudoscience idiots, fear mongers, uneducated public and those paid by big pharma.
Don’t get me wrong, there are risks involved, there’s risk in everything we do. You take risks walking, biking, running, even eating and drinking.
This also isn’t for everyone. It doesn’t work for everyone. If it works for you, great! If another stop smoking aid works for you, great!
I am living proof that vaping saves lives! I have met some of the greatest people on this planet by being an activist and a vaper.
