A very very very
Off topic thing…..
I do not smoke….. I do sport (CrossFit a lot), but I also like my fine dinner and parties from time to time…. Some in here will know…
Now this party thing goes accompanied by things not always good for health but I’m aware of those….
Question what I don’t know …………. I did some “vape” use on the Parties which evolved to using vape’s in normal weeks as well…. Is this damaging or not “grey area” imo ….
Who can tell me something more about if vapes are bad or not (could easily quit them)
Do you mean e-cigarette vapes, or cannabis vaping?
These are some of the risks for e-cigarette vapes.
It can damage your heart's health, and if I remember right you recently had some sort of heart operation. There's also a risk of asthma, among other things.
https://www.healthline.com/health/is-vaping-worse-than-smoking-cigarettes#takeawayBoth smoking and vaping irritate your airways and lungs, which can contribute to several health conditions affecting your lungs, including:
asthma
chronic bronchitis
emphysema
Certain vape products may contain diacetyl, a chemical that manufacturers use to add a buttery flavor to some vape “juices.” Diacetyl links to the development of popcorn lung, a condition involving permanent scarring to your airways.
Smoking links to high blood pressure, heart rate, and a general worsening of cardiovascular function. ... A 2020 World Health Organization brief noted that 20% of heart disease-related deaths link to smoking.
The effects of vaping on heart health are less clear, but research links it to similar increases in blood pressure and heart rate.
A 2022 study compared exercise stress test results among people who vape, smoke, and those who neither vape nor smoke. People in the vaping group consistently performed worse than those in the control group but slightly better than those in the smoking group.
E-cigarettes haven’t been around long enough for experts to fully understand the link between their use and cancer risk. But many products contain some of the same carcinogens that cigarettes do, including:
formaldehyde
acetaldehyde
nitrosamines
E-cigarettes tend to contain lower levels of harmful chemicals. If you currently smoke cigarettes, vaping can reduce your exposure to these chemicals and potentially decrease your cancer risk. But if you don’t currently vape or smoke, using e-cigarettes may increase your cancer risk.
