Honestly, I completely fell into line with tobacco being the worst shit you could possibly do to your body. It was plastered everywhere how it was absolutely going to give you cancer and the thousands of chemicals inside a burning cigarette would make you into some kind of tumor laden mutant.
Then e-cigarretes came out. A product that removed all the negative chemicals I was told was the main contributing factor to all negative effects of smoking. You would figure that would be the chance for the health community to say, "If you are going to smoke, use this because it is dramatically safer" instead it was treated JUST as bad if not worse because it was flavored.
That was an incredibly odd stance to take. So now that a flag was raised that I might have been fed bullshit, I started to do some digging.
