A despicable habit. Who in their right minds would want to kill themselves by smoking something that smell like Chewits, Vanilla or some other sort of godawful sweet smell.

I'll stick to smoking twigs me, like a REAL MAN.

Still nowhere near as bad for you as cigarettes overall. DNA damage is just one aspect of the health hazards of cigs.

There is a lot of Japanese research into vaping. Cellular damage appears to be just as likely as smoking cigarettes and it's the cellular damage that results in the cancer. Besides "professional vapers" are utter unicorns who should die off with their big cloud competitions and all that guff.

Vaping is a hate crime.

They are a bigger threat to humanity than ISIS

Imagine the damage car fumes are doing, to us all, smoker or non smoker.

Prof Chris Griffiths Knows the score.

NEA.

I went from smoking every day to vaping and my health has without question improved remarkably since then. My lung capacity is miles better than it was, I can run for longer and I just generally feel way better than I used to.

Maybe when I'm 60 or 70 the negative effects from vaping will appear but then that would probably happen if id continued to smoke.

All the evidence in my day to day life suggests vaping is considerably less harmful than smoking tobacco.

I am sat here smoking my Marlboro feeling suitably smug....


...and not looking like a pillock.

Does my tits in whenever anyone quits smoking and they start on these things, shoving it my face telling me all the benefits of using it and and insisting I try the boss flavour they're using. I always get a chemical taste on my lips off almost every one I've tried and they nearly always make me cough as it seems I'm smoking the equivalent of abar 10 ciggies in 1 pull, and I can see them looking on enviously as I chug on my Marlboro golds, It's not uncommon for them to be talking about how boss Connor McGregor is either.

Would be interested to see their method, whether they were pushing the vape so hard the coil was burning. 100 puffs is a lot of vape. That's been the case in studies like this previously.

His DNA was already beyond repair anyway.
