The ingredients you list are safe for human ingestion. It doesn't follow that they are safe for inhalation.

Your point that they are likely safer than cigarettes is well taken, but your insistence on the ingredients being known to be safe to inhale is faulty.

Please reread my comment - I never claimed that. I very explicitly stated that inhalation of anything is likely to be bad for your health.

Is that what the marketers of the product are claiming as well? I see quite the opposite in the world around me. I feel the vaping industry is just as corrupt if not more so than the awful cigarette companies. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/juul-came-to-a-9th-grade-classr...
