        Your "Any volunteers" video once again doesn't say WHAT supposed "brain damage" #nicotine does. If #nicotine was the enemy, then the patch, gum, and lozenges (flavored, by the way) wouldn't be approved for LONG TERM USE in kids as young as 12.

        That entire site is nothing but propaganda and falsehoods. The way to gain trust and respect is to start telling the #truth about #vaping It is, by definition, #safe. Period. #VapingSavesLives

        Wow... what a load of tripe that link is. Can you please tell us EXACTLY what "harm [to] the developing brain" nicotine does? I mean seriously. I clicked our link, but saw the same BS about Ultra Fine particles and diacetyl. WHAT HARM, EXACTLY?

        Interesting - pre 1960 everyone exposed to cig smoke everywhere - yet highest smoking rate never much above 50%. Similar to 97 million opioid Rx/yr, vast majority of those patients don't turn into addicts.

        Benzene is well below toxic levels (if present at all) and 40x lower than smoking a #cigarette. #HarmReduction https://www.vaporfi.com/blog/latest-study-confirms-benzene-produced-when-vaping-is-not-at-toxic-levels/ …
