LIES THE MEDIA TELLS YOU – A LOOK AT HALF TRUTHS AND FALSEHOODS

How many of you come into disputes with relatives about vaping? There’s a pretty high chance that you’re going to find yourself bickering with a relative somewhere down the line who’s been given an incorrect set of facts from the media about vaping. Unfortunately, the media is a breeding ground for lies and half truths. This isn’t good if you’re trying to convince people of the benefits of vaping, because you’ve got to work against the news. To try and help clear the air, and provide some proper facts, we’re going to be taking a look at some of the lies the media will tell you.

Vaping Is Worse Than Or Equal To Smoking 

One of the most annoying things that the media will try and tell you is that vaping is somehow on an equal playing field with smoking when it comes to the damage that it can do. However, that’s simply just not true. Smoking is a real detriment to your health. It’s often been regarded as being one of the biggest killers around, and it’s fairly easy to see why. Carbon monoxide and tar are chemicals which should not be in our system, but the cigarettes that we smoke make it so that they are. Vaping, in comparison, is absolutely harmless. It’s a very limited set of chemicals and flavourings, none of which do serious damage to the body. Any effects suffered from vaping are negligible, which most people don’t know.

Vaping Is A Gateway Drug 

It seems like this particular lie is one which we can never clear up often enough. One of the biggest concerns about vaping is that it is a way for kids to get into smoking. But that just isn’t true. In the U.K., vaping has the same age restrictions that normal cigarettes do. That means that anyone under the age of 18 can not buy them, at all. We have age restrictions on energy drinks now for goodness sake. No one is going to sell a vaping device to teenagers or young children, because it’s both highly immoral and also illegal. Most people in the vaping community understand that kids don’t know what they’re doing or getting into. This is why it’s really not a good idea to try and promote anything vaping related to kids. All of the childish flavours? They’re just part of the appeal, and not a deliberate ploy to sway the young and ignorant.

Overall, these are just a few of the different things that the media will try and tell you about vaping. Obviously, none of the things you hear are true, but it’s quite easy to get caught up in what is and what is not correct about vaping. It’s often a case of facts which have been incorrectly interpreted, or a misconception which has been repeated so many times that it sounds true.
