So, ok, absolutely if you go through disposable vape after disposable vape, yes you are literally throwing batteries away…
But if you get a rechargeable, refillable pocket vape, which you can get for maybe the cost of two or three disposables…
Then you are just recharging a battery. Usually a much smaller (in terms of energy capacity) battery than even the crappiest phone.
Obviously you should not pick up vaping as a habit, but it is faaaar less bad for you than smoking, and if you were already addicted to smoking, well switching to a vape is healthier and less expensive.
Myself I spent almost a decade smoking, switched to a vape and my lung capacity is greatly improved, oral health is way better, oh and no more horrific coughing. I am slowly dialing down the concentration in the hopes that one day I’ll be able to quit.
Before that it was years of trying to quit cigarettes, making it a week or a month with none, giving up and getting a pack, feeling like a piece of shit figuratively and literally as they’d make me sick again.
People do not seem to widely realize or appreciate that nicotine withdrawals are as bad or worse than heroin withdrawals.
Another hand grenade you can throw into this is: Sure, smoking weed has varying medicinal properties, but it also has the problem that you are smoking something.
Do you smoke your blunts through a filter?
No?
Oh, ok so thats about the same tar and particulate matter as the same amount of smoking hand rolled cigarettes.
Ive known plenty of habitual weed smokers with the traditionally tobacco associated ‘smokers cough’, and they would tell me that smoking MJ is actually healthy for you as they are weezing and out of breath, hacking up a lung after a flight or two of stairs.
The coughing, holy shit. I used to wake up and sound like I was dying and spit out so much nasty shit every morning. My family could literally tell when I was awake by the sounds I made.
And no, I have not heard about that, do you have a link to something going into that maybe?
If you do I will read it after I wake up, I have been up all night and just wrote a couple hundred words of a short story about Elon Musk being the world’s worst sandwich maker.
Delirium is clearly upon me so I should probably sleep now.
I’ll have a look at it in the morning. I can’t seem to find much usefull by doing a little google search. I know I’ve seen it on tv and it wasn’t some kind of fever dream.
Seems it has to do with the soft tissue.
I’ve head some doctors say it can cause cancer in the soft tissue indide your mouth and cheeks.
[Edit]
Why the hell am I being downvoted? This is confirmed information.
From the link:
“It’s not only tobacco smoking that can affect oral health and have other health risks. When vape juice is heated it can potentially damage enamel and irritate soft tissue. As the ingredients tend to be thick and sticky, vapers may be at a higher risk of developing tooth decay and gum disease,” Dr Brown said.
That is a far cry from cancer, which your link makes no mention of.
It also says:
The oral health risks of dry mouth are compounded if people consume sweetened drinks, such as flavoured milks, energy drinks and soft drinks instead of water to combat the effects, which can then provide a greater food source for bacteria.”
So if this is what you’re hanging your hat on you better fucking only drink water my dude.

Because I’ve watched doctors say it on tv but finding similar articles is harder because you get spammed with other articles you’re not looking for.
But I guess everyone likes to downvote when they don’t like the content because that was before I even shared that link.
Mmhmm.
