      I don’t know, but inhaling anything into your lungs other than air cannot be good for you.

      So there has been studies that says that because the vaper that is inhaled can be too hot and damage/burn your throat… But that’s all I know.

      Yes. First of all, you still vape (smoke) nicotine, which is harmful. And then I heard that hot steam itself can damage your lungs.

      It is likely. While it is probably not as bad for you as regular smoking, there simply hasn’t been the research into the safety of vaping for us to know. The problem here is that unlike things like food, there isn’t the same level of safety laws in place to require testing before being sold to the public. So what will probably happen is in 20 years time we will find out vaping is really bad for you in some way, just like what happened with tobacco.

      Well its a variation of smoking/soft smoking-so although not as bad as smoking itself, it probably isn’t something you’d want to be doing over a long stretch of time.
