ellsworth2375 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 a few seconds agoI saw on a site that there were 31 chemicals in e cigs. Also found on another that there are 9 very unhealthy chemicals. One being led. What do you all think?Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adversarious1 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 What site was this? Doubtful it was credible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 We think it's a bunch of hooey unless we see this article (so called research) for ourselves. Sorry, but I don't trust hearsay, I'd rather be able to see the actual thing and then do some research/digging around to get more information.

Bebop Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Take your e-cig. Throw it on an open fire and roast it like chestnuts... ... I'll bet you can get a 100 nasty chemicals from it. Tam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRich Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 There probably is more nasty chemicals in the air of a large city than there are in a e-cig. I even had one person try to tell me the LED light on the end of a cigalike causes cancer, there's a lot of misinformation on vaping being taken as fact.

Christopher Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I'd be interested to see a source on the article. You have to keep in mind there are many brands of e liquids from many parts of the world. Most decent vendors will provide you with a certificate or analysis (these days) and MSDS when requested. That way you can set your mind at ease and decide for yourself if you're willing to purchase said product. (And for the record, we have both) Here is a list of ingredients inside a cigarette (Source: http://www.rjrt.com/commercial-integrity/ingredients/cigarette-ingredients/) Acetanisole Acetic Acid Acetoin Acetophenone 2-Acetylpyrazine l-Alanine Alginate, Ammonium Ammonium Hydroxide Amyris Oil trans-Anethole Anisaldehyde Anisyl Acetate Apple Juice Concentrate l-Arginine Ascorbic Acid l-Aspartic Acid Beeswax Absolute Benzaldehyde Benzaldehyde Glyceryl Acetal Benzoin Resin Benzyl Alcohol Benzyl Cinnamate Brown Sugar Buten-2-one, 4-(2-Furyl)-3- Butter Starter Distillate n-Butyl Isovalerate Butyric Acid Caramel Color Carbon Carbon Dioxide Cardamom Powder Cardamon Oil Carob Bean Extract Carvone l-Carvone beta-Caryophyllene beta-Caryophyllene Oxide Cassia Bark Oil Castoreum Extract Cellulose Cellulose Fiber Chicory Extract Chocolate Liquor Cinnamyl Acetate Cinnamyl Alcohol Citric Acid Citronella Oil Clary Sage Extract Cocoa (Extract, Powder, Extractive) Cocoa Extract Coffee Beans, Ground and Extract Cognac Oil Coriander Oil Corn Syrup beta-Damascenone beta-Damascone delta-Decalactone gamma-Decalactone Decanoic Acid Dextrose Diammonium Phosphate 2,3-Diethylpyrazine 4,5-Dimethyl-3-Hydroxy-2,5-Dihydrofuran-2-one 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine delta-Dodecalactone Ethyl Acetate Ethyl Alcohol Ethyl Benzoate Ethyl Butyrate Ethyl Caproate Ethyl Cinnamate Ethyl Cyclotene Ethyl Heptanoate Ethyl Isovalerate Ethyl Lactate Ethyl Levulinate Ethyl Maltol Ethyl Pentanoate Ethyl Phenylacetate Ethyl Vanillin Ethyl-2-Methylbutyrate 2-Ethyl-3,5(or 6)-Dimethylpyrazine 5-Ethyl-3-Hydroxy-4-Methyl-2(5H)-Furanone 2-Ethyl-3-Methylpyrazine Eucalyptol Fenugreek Extract Fenugreek Seed and Absolute Fig extract Fig Juice Concentrate Furaneol Geraniol Geranium Bourbon Oil Geranyl Acetone Ginger Oil Glucose Glycerides, Mixed Decanoyl and Octanoyl Glycerin Graphite Guaiacol Guar Gum gamma-Heptalactone Heptanoic Acid omega-6-Hexadecenlactone Hexanoic Acid Hexyl Acetate High Fructose Corn Syrup Honey Hydrogenated Glucose Syrup 4-p-Hydroxyphenyl-2-butanone Immortelle Extract Isoamyl Acetate Isoamyl Isovalerate Isoamyl Phenylacetate Isobutyl Cinnamate Isobutyl Phenylacetate alpha-Isobutylphenethyl Alcohol Isobutyraldehyde Isobutyric Acid Isovaleraldehyde Isovaleric Acid Lactic Acid Lemon Oil Terpeneless Licorice Licorice Extract and Extract Powder Lime Oil Linalool Linalyl Acetate Lovage Extract and Root Lovage Oil l-Lysine Hydrochloride Malic Acid Malt Extract Maltodextrin Maltol Mandarin Oil Mate Extract Menthol l-Menthol 2-Methoxy-4-Methylphenol Methoxymethylpyrazine Methyl Acetophenone 2-Methyl Pentanoic Acid 6-Methyl-3,5-Heptadien-2-One 2-Methylbutyric Acid Methylcyclopentenolone 2-Methylpyrazine 3-Methylvaleric Acid Molasses Myrrh Absolute Myrrh Extract and Oil Neroli Bigarade Oil Nerolidol gamma-Nonalactone Nutmeg Oil gamma-Octalactone Octanoic Acid 1-Octen-3-ol Orange Oil Orange Oil Sweet Terpeneless Orange Oil Terpeneless Orris Root Extract 2,3-Pentanedione 2-Pentanone Peppermint Oil Terpeneless Peru Balsam Oil Phenethyl Acetate Phenyl Acetic Acid Phenylacetaldehyde Phenylethyl Alcohol Phosphoric Acid Pineapple Juice Concentrate alpha-Pinene beta-Pinene Piperonal Pipsissewa Leaf Extract Potassium Carbonate Potassium Sorbate Propenylguaethol (Vanitrope) Propionic Acid Propyl Acetate Propylene Glycol 3-Propylidenephthalide Prune Juice Concentrate Pyroligneous Acid, Hickory Rose Oil Turkish Rosemary Oil Rum Ether Specially Denatured Rum #4 Sage Oil Salicylic Aldehyde Sandalwood Oil, Yellow Sodium Bicarbonate Sodium Carbonate Sodium Citrate Spearmint Oil Specially Denatured Alcohol #4 Styrax Sugar Sugarbeet Juice Concentrate Tangerine Oil Terpeneless Tartaric Acid alpha-Terpineol Terpinyl Acetate 5,6,7,8-Tetrahydroquinoxaline 2,3,5,6-Tetramethylpyrazine Tolu Balsam Gum p-Tolyl Isobutyrate p-Tolyl Phenylacetate Triacetin Triethyl Citrate 2,6,6-Trimethyl-2-Cyclohexene-1,4-Dione 2,3,5-Trimethylpyrazine delta-Undecalactone gamma-Undecalactone Valerian Root Oil Vanilla Extract Vanilla Oleoresin Vanillin Veratraldehyde Water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other three places that occasionally I get/got juice from are also certified (VT,VW and CV) SO, I have absolutely no concerns as to them being thousands of times safer than cigarettes.

So my understanding is most brands now are like that. Not the cheap brands. Do u agree? Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some (or even many) of the "cheap" brands also use the same ingredients but, like I said, you'll need to double check each one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRich Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The only thing that I put in my DIY juice that may contain chemicals is the flavoring, Most flavor makers list the ingredients of their flavors. I use Flavor West mostly, and they have MSDS sheets on their products, also certificates of analysis which lists what is in the flavor.

I also use flavor west or TFA and they also have MSDS sheets or list any questionable ingredients in their product overview then it's at purchasers discretion.
