By Archita Mittra
You may have seen celebrities like Leonardo Di Caprio and Katy Perry with vaping devices and wondered what it was all about. Yes, vaping culture is gradually doing the rounds, but people are still confused and even misinformed about it. How is a vape different from an ordinary smoke? Are e-cigarettes also detrimental to your health? What’s the deal with so many flavors?
Whether you’re planning to get a vape or you’re just curious as to how it works, this article has it all covered.
1. So What Exactly Is Vaping?
To put it simply, vaping is the act of inhaling vapor from an e-cigarette or a vaping device. It gives you the impression of tobacco smoking except that the liquid that is heated to generate the “vapor” may or may not contain nicotine.
2. How Does A Vaporizer Work?
The vaporizer is an electric device comprising a battery, main console, cartridges and an atomizer. The heat generated by the battery in the atomizer turns the vaping material into an “aerosol” or a “vapor” which you can then inhale.
3. What Flavors Can I Try Out?
Vaping materials are usually made from e-juices (also called e-liquids) which are made up of a vegetable glycerin base, propylene glycol, assorted flavorings and even nicotine. Dry herbs, and waxy concentrates are other common materials, and there are even specialized marijuana vaporizers available. Depending on what you like, you can pick flavors as varied as Banana Nut Bread, Watermelon Wave and even Peach Green Tea!
4. Is It Less Harmful Than Smoking?
The short answer is yes. If you’re trying to give up cigarettes, switching to a vaporizer might help. In fact, most studies indicate that vaping is 95% safer than smoking and it can even help people to quit smoking by gradually decreasing the nicotine strength in the vaping material. However, you still have to be careful about your vape batteries and chargers and low-quality vaporizers may pose several health risks. Unlike passive smoking, vaping doesn’t pose any risks to bystanders, but effects of long-term use are yet to be conclusive. With how influential vaping has become, it has lead to some people hiring a juul attorney, or someone who can fight for their clients when there is potential damage associated with vaping.
5. Yes, Vaping Lounges Are A Thing
However, you must take care that you don’t use you vaporizer in places where smoking is prohibited. Nevertheless, vaping is now perceived as a safe alternative to smoking and as a recreational activity. Vapemeets and vapefests where vapers from different cities can meet and socialize are now being regularly organized. Some vape shops even have an attached vape bar to try out different blends of e-juices and flavors. Your locality may even have a vaping lounges or a vaporium where you can socialize with other vapers, instead of going to a pub or a bar.
So if you’re planning to get into vaping culture, make sure you do your research first and buy a high-quality vaporizer and try out different flavours to see what suits you best. Try to cut down on nicotine intake. There are several online communities dedicated to vaping that you can join and learn more about the vaping lifestyle.
