Lets be clear about the recent news..


I think it is really important we clear something up about what is going on in media and social media about these “vaping” incidents.

First off, it has nothing to do with e-cigs or nicotine products. Vaping has LITERALLY saved millions of lives worldwide. I had the honor of helping new smokers get off cigarettes quick. I also had people that have smoked for 40 years get off cigarettes with vaping when everything else failed. It HAS been proven that vaping is ATLEAST 95% safer than smoking. The only people that gain from flavor bans and anti-vaping policies are big tobacco companies. The same companies that are losing millions to an industry that is saving lives. Cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 480,000 deaths per year in the United States, including more than 41,000 deaths resulting from secondhand smoke exposure. This is about one in five deaths annually, or 1,300 deaths every day. On average, smokers die 10 years earlier than nonsmokers.

The second blame I am seeing is that the cause is THC. I have seen ridiculous and absurd accusations by ill-informed people. Such as, butane from some extraction processes is the cause. Others stating it is the actual THC that is causing these issues. Both are wrong. Marijuana and it’s byproducts have NEVER been the direct result of illness or death. Marijuana products have helped the lives of millions and provide an abundance of medical benefits. The ONLY people to gain from setting back that industry is the ones losing millions… The pharmaceutical industry.

Added vitamin e acetate is the leading cause of these incidents. These products are easily determined to be unlicensed underground manufactured products. These are products that have unknown and unclaimed ingredients with packaging to deceive for legitimacy. In no way should these “products” be categorized with either credible industry.

What we don’t need: We don’t need people spreading false information. We don’t need fear-mongering to set back two positive and emerging industries that are proven to be beneficial to people.

What we do need: We need people to research any claim they see. We need people to take responsibility for spreading false information and correct their ill-informed statements. We need to support these live-saving industries. We need to stand up against unfair and illegal sanctions and bans. We need to stand up to these “leader” spreading false claims. We must speak up.

I beg of you. Do your research. Question the accusations. Stand your ground for what is right. Do not let fear-mongering and lies set back two incredible industries that are helping millions of lives. Spread facts and research like wild fire. Inform the misinformed.

E-cigs, the FDA and your opinion.

E-cigs, the FDA and your opinion.

A public health focus post at the FDA’s site this past month outlined their plans to regulate the e-cigarette industry.  E-cigs as we know it may be close to changing if we do not speak up and talk about what e-cigs have done for you.  Below is the summary of the proposed rule.

Summary
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to deem products meeting the statutory definition of “tobacco product,” except accessories of a proposed deemed tobacco product, to be subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act), as amended by the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control Act). The Tobacco Control Act provides FDA authority to regulate cigarettes, cigarette tobacco, roll-your-own tobacco, smokeless tobacco, and any other tobacco products that the Agency by regulation deems to be subject to the law. Option 1 of the proposed rule would extend the Agency’s “tobacco product” authorities in the FD&C Act to all other categories of products, except accessories of a proposed deemed tobacco product, that meet the statutory definition of “tobacco product” in the FD&C Act. Option 2 of the proposed rule would extend the Agency’s “tobacco product” authorities to all other categories of products, except premium cigars and the accessories of a proposed deemed tobacco product, that meet the statutory definition of “tobacco product” in the FD&C Act. FDA also is proposing to prohibit the sale of “covered tobacco products” to individuals under the age of 18 and to require the display of health warnings on cigarette tobacco, roll-your own tobacco, and covered tobacco product packages and in advertisements. FDA is taking this action to address the public health concerns associated with the use of tobacco products.

E-cigarettes could save millions of lives

ecig-hardware Switching to e-cigarettes could save millions of smokers’ lives, a conference on the increasingly popular devices heard Tuesday, though some experts warned more research on the health effects is needed.

The merits of e-cigarettes were thrashed out at a one-day gathering of some 250 scientists, policymakers, industry figures and enthusiasts at the Royal Society in London.

The use of electronic cigarettes — battery-powered devices that simulate smoking by heating and vaporizing a liquid solution containing nicotine — has grown rapidly, with tobacco manufacturers jumping on the trend. Continue Reading →
