In the realm of vaping, there is a minefield of myths and misunderstandings. At Grabit, we have heard it all; from outrageous misinformation to understandable apprehension. It’s time to cut through the clutter and take an honest look at vaping, what it means for health and highlight how our technology has been developed to provide a better product for vapers.
Health Risks of Vaping
Existing studies indicate that vaping can expose the user to fewer toxic chemicals compared to cigarette smoke. Dr. Lisa Chan, a pulmonologist we consulted, explained: "Vaping is associated with a lower degree of damage to lung tissue compared to smoking".
One of the main selling features of vaping was positioning vaping as a safer alternative to smoking. It is less harmful in terms of the number of chemicals when compared to the thousands of chemicals found in cigarette smoke. As pointed out by Dr. Chan, especially tar and carbon monoxide; however, "safer" certainly does not mean "safe".
● Fewer Harmful Chemicals: Vaping is associated with fewer harmful chemicals compared to smoking cigarettes, specifically tar and carcinogenic agents, making them less harmful than traditional smoking; not less harmful and /or completely safe.
Vaping vs. traditional smoking
For smokers contemplating a switch to vaping it can be both exhilarating and frightening at the same time. According to many the experience can be identified as initial adjustment followed by better lung function and all-around improved health.
