Research

The New England Journal of Medicine formaldehyde study made a lot of people scared about formaldehyde in e-cig vapor. The research was heavily criticized, but the authors brushed off issues as "speculation." They can't do that anymore. Now yet another peer-reviewed study has clearly demonstrated that the original study's method was massively flawed.

A new study from CDC researchers has revealed that vaping is the most popular quitting smoking aid in the US. It might not sound exciting, but when you take a look at the numbers, the study strongly suggests that vaping is helping more smokers quit than FDA-approved treatments.

The CDC is reporting that the number of calls to poison control centers relating to e-cigarettes increased from one per month in September 2010 to 215 per month in February 2014.

Regulators’ decisions need to be based on sound science rather than unsupported assertions and media-driven hysteria, but we increasingly see more weight given to the latter when it comes to e-cigs.

A new study reports that “E-cigarette secondhand smoke has increased levels of toxic metals.” Are vapers exposed to smaller quantities of harmful components than smokers?
