Vaping Risks - What Vaping Can Do to Your Mouth

For those of you who don't know IQOS is the newest device for smoking cessation. It has been cleared by the FDA for sale in the United States for summer of 2019.

#IQOS uses heetsticks to heat tobacco to 350°C, without combustion or smoke. Because the tobacco is not burned, the amount of harmful chemicals are significantly reduced compared to traditional cigarettes.

FDA
The aerosol produced by the IQOS Tobacco Heating System contains fewer toxic chemicals than cigarette smoke, and many of the toxins identified are present at lower levels than in #cigarette smoke. For example, the carbon monoxide exposure from IQOS aerosol is comparable to environmental exposure, and levels of acrolein and formaldehyde are 89% to 95% and 66% to 91% lower than from combustible cigarettes, respectively.

As for vaping, studies conducted by the Royal College of Physicians that show that e-cigarettes available today are unlikely to exceed 5% of the harm from #smoking tobacco.

Also, there is a new study as of January 2019 conducted by the New England Journal of Medicine. The study shows that for people trying to quit tobacco, switching to e-cigarettes was nearly TWICE as effective as using other forms of Nicotine Replacement Therapy.

The rise of teens smoking e-cigarettes has been alarming, especially because many of these kids are not using their vapes to quit smoking tobacco, they are following a trend.

We all know that smoking is not good for you. However, if you are trying to quit smoking cigarettes vaping or IQOS can be a much healthier option for those people.

Warning: All of these products contain nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.

I quit juuling about 5 months ago, now I feel the need to smoke an occasional cigarette. I’m not sure what’s better.... having a juul in your back pocket that you smoke constantly, or having a pack of cigarettes that lasts you over a month. Thoughts?

I started smoking in 1986 and switched to vaping a few years ago. Lowered my nicotine over time and eventually quit. Haven't vaped in about 6 months. Good luck everyone.

I smoked regular cigarettes for 20 years (1 Pack a day), then switched to IQOS (half Pack a day) for 1 year, and then finally felt able to quit completely smoking for now about 1, 5 years. So its possible to stop. Just do it. 😊

It's the first time that I see an ACTUAL comparison between smoking vs vaping. We all know it's better to not do any, but for those who are already hooked on tabaco this information is gold. Thanks a ton !!

[irfanbrohe]

My father quit smoking when he saw me smoking for the first time. 😌

I could remember several years ago I was addicted to cigarettes. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

Started smoking as a rebellious yet very troubled 12 year old. Been smoking for 10 years.
Completely switched from cigarettes to IQOS this year. It's so, so much better!
Our home doesn't smell as bad as it used to, the there's no more smoke residue on the walls and surfaces anymore, my clothes don't smell as they used to.
I sleep better now since I used to get up and go on the balcony for a smoke in the middle of the night and I'd end up smoking 2-3 cigarettes since I'm there anyway and I don't feel like getting out of bed later. Now if I wake up it's one heet and I'm done, back to sleep!

Now I've started being bothered by cigarette smoke! I didn't realize how bad the smell impregnated everything until now. TMI probably but it wasn't just my breath that smelled like smoke but my urine as well. I used to just say "Well, I smoke so I should just expect stuff like that."

And there's a weird side effect for IQOS I didn't expect but is greatly welcomed : I drink more water now. The heating system dries my mouth up so I'm always reaching for the water bottle.

I also like that the chances of making the people around me second hand smokers are low. I can just have a heet a lil bit away from a family member and they won't be coughing up a storm. I can just sit with them now.
I can have a heet inside now, no more walking outside to sit in the rain at the coffee shop or hang half way out the window during the winter at home.

I can just do stuff now, no need to take a break after having a smoke! With IQOS I am not gasping for air anymore.

If you want to quit smoking, or at least reduce harm, just try IQOS.

Well done Britains healthcare system, instead of dancing around the fact trying to warn people away from vaping, they say it is not good for you but is 95% better than cigarettes. That is the info I need. Thanks Joe a great video.

[saimon]

Thanks! This actually answers the question in title, usually these videos just rant about how everything is harmful.

[markisaki]

A great video with a very unbiased point of view. I always suspected that the IQOS would not be safer than vaping, but be somewhere in the middle, but I didn't expect it to actually produce almost no aerosol when it is puffed. No flavours would still be a turn off, as I switched to a vape for that purpose over IQOS, as I can imagine the latter still tastes like a stinky cigarette. Whatever you choose though, it's better than staying on the path of accelerated death.

[theobaldmathew]

The great thing with IQOS I found was that it made me no longer like the taste of tobacco this was not the same with vapes. So it was really good in helping me quite smoking cigarettes. However the downfall of IQOS is that it is 8 pounds for a 20 pack of IQOS heats. IQOS is being heavily promoted because Philip Morris owns the brand so with the fall in cigarette consumption Philip Morris is aiming to get a large market share in the new vape industry. For example Philip Morris have raised the price of the cigarette products and puts advertising inside their products to smoke IQOS instead.
