NOT Toxic---The Studies are Starting to Come in and Guess What?

Yep, just what we've been trying to tell the fear mongers all along, the juice we use in our e-cigarette devices is NOT toxic when used properly. Here is a new study that shows that there is hope on the horizon to battle the crazy media bashing frenzy and legislations on vaping:  http://www.ecita.org.uk/blog/index.php/how-toxic-is-e-liquid/

In Summary: European officials have been wrongly labelling e-liquid as extremely toxic. This is the view of ECITA, based on a report by toxicology consultants which has been verified by Professors Riccardo Polosa and Bernd Mayer, and Dr Jacques Le Houezec. The civil servants had been misclassifying e-liquid as either a CLP category 2 product, alongside strychnine, or a category 3 product, alongside formaldehyde. The new report demonstrates that the acute oral and dermal toxic hazards of the strongest consumer e-liquids only merit being classed as category 4 – along with washing-up liquid – while the vast majority of e-liquid (which has nicotine concentrations below 25mg/ml or 2.5%) does not require any type of formal hazard warning. ECITA will still mandate its members to provide clearly labelled e-liquid in child-proof containers
