    I don't think we can win to be honest, and like I've said before I just think people like to complain about anything and everything they can sometimes.

    If we took the doctors advice then we'd hardly have any enjoyment or fun at all!

    Not true, doctors are not your enemies. Like just one poster said, anything unnatural that goes into your body is bound to cause some consequences to your body. Mainly, your liver have to detoxify those things which over few years will lead to various diseases as your liver gets weak. This is true for all unnatural things. But the thing is vaping is much less harmful than drinking or say traditional smoking. You are only going to see the effects if you continue for a long span of time like decades.

    I think if you're already a smoker, transitioning to vaping instead is definitely a good change that could possibly extend your life.
    Otherwise, it's probably best to avoid this kind of thing altogether.

    This is true, even though there has been a lot of hype around e-cigarettes, the truth is that at the end of the day it's still not natural to vape or smoke, and you body shows you that it isn't.

    Well you know, no doctor will ever recommend vaping because of the nicotine in it.

    But if you have a nice MD. then they can show you statistics about vaping vs. cigarettes and also facts that vaping is the smaller bad :)

    Not my doctor, but a doctor friend—he thinks that vaping is definitely the lesser of the two evils when compared to cigarettes, but he's concerned about the amount of vaping among teens in our city.

    That's what most doctors are saying at this point in time. It certainly isn't healthy but it's still healthier then the alternative.

    My doctor told me a completely different fact. He said that vaping has some benefits over actual cigars. Vaping is much safer than cigars. Vaping is considered dangerous only when you take it in more than excessive amount. I am not really 'addicted' to vaping and I don't use it 'excessively'. It's definitely more health-friendly than cigarette.

    I can understand him. Anyway, I'm glad they do vape instead of smoking. At the very least, it makes them smell better. And doesn't affect any bypassers.

    Vaping has its risks, and doctors will always tell you about them. It's their job, after all. It's still smoking, even if healthier. That doesn't mean you should give up on your passion, but just be careful and do it responsibly.

    I think doctors and scientist are still unsure about the effects of vaping. It is a very new tech, relatively speaking. All I can say from an ex-smoker`s point of view, is that, I feel much better since I quit smoking and started vaping and that has to be a good thing.

    They will usually tell you that inhaling anything isn't very good for your lungs, which is true. It's just a matter of the lesser of two evils. Vaping is clearly the better option when compared to traditional cigarettes.

    I never went to a doctor for advise on e-cigs. I can not afford to go to the doctor. I do not have 100 bucks to throw away. I don’t have money to waste. I have heard on the vape forum that some doctors say that e-cigs can cause bronchitis. Now, I do not know if that information is valid. But, every drug has a side effect. You can not have the good without the bad.

    Yes, in fact my doctor have been very opened to me among the course of years about smoking, he also smokes. He told me that switching to vaping isn't too much healthier, but it is some point healthier, also he advised me to quit (ironic, no?) numerous times on cigarettes, and after my switch he still advises me to quit vaping, as he has several patients who are suffering from diseases caused by vaping it seems.

    You are getting to a particular destination but just using a different mode of transportation. You still get the same hit of nicotine. It might not smell the same. It might taste the same. Hell people around you don't mind that you puff it around now, but you are still getting nicotine. Eventually, it will catch up with you.

    Well it just shows that there are some physicians are more open minded. Nobody said that vaping is good for you but if you compare it to smoking it does far less damage to your body.

    But with vaping you can regulate the amount of nicotine you have, that's got to be worth something?

    If a person smokes 20 cigarettes a day they will have a set amount of nicotine that goes in to their body. If they vape the equivalent of 20 cigarettes a day, they can reduce the amount of nicotine so that in theory should make them a little safer at least.

    This is true but most people that vape are trying to quit the intake of nicotine. That's how com there are juices with different amounts of nicotine and most mods can be regulated to reduce the amount of nicotine consumed.
