The first study of its kind has found that people who vape have the same mix of gut bacteria as non-smokers, whilst smokers have significant changes to their microbiome.

RaysWay- I dunno how good that study (really) was, but 1) Gut Bacteria is sure a big deal these days and 2) yeah, no surprise that it`s another area where smoking tobacco is worse than inhaling vapor. But, uhm..."10 smokers".. without any details?!? Heh heh, guess I shouldn`t cast aspersions on a study whose results I like, but still..

I`ll take any piece of ammo to fight the big tobacco fake news

Heh heh, no argument there even if I do kneejerk about "two wrongs don`t.."

Even though they`re supposedly disrupting the Vaping Industry, I can see some good in Big Tobacco getting on the Vaping bandwagon. Wasn`t all that long ago that there was a push to ban vaping, but with Big Tobacco involved that`s not gonna happen.

Why didn`t I know about steeping liquids until now?!?!

RaysWay- Heh heh, all sorts of stuff to know about, huh? Yeah, with some liquids it makes a *huge* difference. I always let stuff sit for at least a little while whenever feasible.
