A message from Dr Farsalinos to us ECIGSSA vapers

I hope Dr F gets on it quickly and finds some flaw in the study. This is not encouraging news.
 

Thanks for this @Johnny2Puffs

Dr Farsalinos is a champ

For those who dont want to read the link he says he cant understand why the aldehydes from certain flavours (watermelon, bluberry and coffee) should be more than that from unflavoured ejuice. But he cant see anything glaringly wrong with that study.

So he is going to try replicate the study himself and will report back

We are right behind you Dr Farsalinos. Thanks for all you do!
 
Here's a recent response by Konstantinos Farsalinos and George Lagoumintzis about toxins in flavours.

According to them, the important factor is not the mere presence of toxins but the quantity, which is hazardous.

What I find particularly interesting is that the article quotes Paracelsus (Swiss physician and alchemist 1493 -1541).
"All things are poison, and nothing is without poison, the dosage alone makes it so a thing is not a poison"

Wisdom from the past, still relevant today and applicable to vaping, which didn't exist then!

The good Doctor continuing his great work in the fight for vaping!

The European Commissioner for Climate Change, and scientific organizations, continue to ignore the strong evidence on the health benefits of nicotine-containing harm reduction products for smokers. A recent study published in the official journal of the European Society of Cardiology, examining 18.000 patients, reported that smoking patients with coronary heart disease who switch to e-cigarettes had a STATISTICALLY IDENTICAL and NUMERICALLY STRONGER REDUCTION in the risk for future adverse cardiac events, than those who quit smoking without using any alternative. Reductions in the risk of respiratory disease, cancer and all cause mortality were also observed among those who swiched to vaping.

Another systematic review and meta-analysis found that vaping is associated with a similar risk reduction for cardiovascular and respiratory disease as quitting without the use of any alternatives for 5-10 years.

It is unacceptable for European Health Officials and scientists to "ignore" such strong evidence. Disinformation is always disinformation, even when it is politically convenient.

The above post by Dr Farsalinos was in response to The European lawmakers continuing to consider harsher measures against vaping.
 
Well, guess what I am doing this weekend?
I am going to dive in headfirst and read as much of this work as I can. You can expect a blog real soon.
