I was watching the news today and I guess e-cig companies are now trying to sell you on smoking your vitamins.  Anything that advocates smoking is a big NO to me personally.  Have you heard of this?  

Hey, if I use my patches, roll veggies and smoke them do I get a double dose?

I vape for many reasons, one, it is a thing I enjoy, as well as getting good tasting things without eating or drinking them. I was on nicotine but now I am not, due to upcoming WLS. But this still bothers me. Have they tested this? What are they using for a base? Vegetable Glycerin and Propylene Glycol most likely, as that is the base for most ejuice. But, with a cheap ecig like that, are you REALLY getting what you need? Again, this worries me. Vitamins are serious. I wouldn't trust this.

 

BTW, vaping is not smoking. I've many stories of how it saved lives. (For the ones who just couldn't give up smoking, this helped them) Don't listen to all the media crap, they are not educated on the matter. Some"Studies" that have been done are backed by BigTobacco and all kinds of other reasons why one should do their own research before switching to vaping. I have seen xrays that show clear lungs after a year of switching to vaping. It doesn't have all the other toxins and carcinogens and tar... but some people do have a sensitivity to PG or VG, so it shouldn't be taken lightly. And they do take some learning.

Not wanting to argue, just a friendly word :)

I have not been unable to find the new flavor here but looking forward to trying it.  Costco has the best price and I like the chocolate and vanilla.  I find the strawberry is gritty and don't drink it.

Smoked veggies? Blech. But smoked meats are great.

I know you can get the E-cigs minus the nicotine.  My only concern is how much of the vitamins you are smoking is actually absorbed into into your system.  Has it ever been studied that vitamins can even be taken successfully via this method. I know some people would be highly likely to want to ingest their vitamins in this manner...if it turns out to be safe and actually works.  But I would rather take things the old fashion way
