    My two concerns are that, you wouldn’t hold the vapor in your mouth long enough for it to actually be helpful, and with some people vaping occasionally, and others doing it constantly, it would be difficult to keep the fluoride levels high enough for casual users to get a benefit, but low enough that all-day every-day folks don’t OD.

        Why make them illegal? I used a vape to limit my nicotine intake and weaned myself off of smoking (and vaping) completely. It still sucked for the first 6 months and the occasional random craving that comes from being a smoker for over a decade, but at least I fought each part of the smoking addictions separately which made it bearable.

        For clarity, I got 0% nicotine vape juice for a month or so before I quit puffing completely so let the withdrawal from the substance run its course, and then had to deal with the psychological side of things. Which was VERY annoying. Everytime I’d do anything where I’d normally smoke triggered a craving.

          What we REALLY need to do is limit the concentration of nicotine in vape juices to no higher than that found in a “standard” cigarette. Part of the problem right now is that you can easily buy vape juice with waaaay more nicotine per puff than any tobacco product so it’s much easier to get addicted.

        Vaping was integral to me quitting smoking. Vaping isn’t the problem, advertising and accessibility of nicotine to youths is the real issue.
