According to Public Health England;

“Only one in three adults in England knows that vaping is far less harmful than smoking. Yet in 2018 the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) found that the available evidence suggests e-cigarettes are “far less harmful” than conventional smoking.

Public Health England’s 2015 independent evidence report, concluded that: “While vaping may not be 100% safe, most of the chemicals causing smoking-related disease are absent and the chemicals which are present pose limited danger.”

More research is needed into the relative harms of e-cigarettes. Last month PHE commissioned the final and most ambitious report in the current series of e-cigarette updates. A team that combines authors of PHE’s previous reports with other international experts are starting work on a wide range of systematic reviews, including one on safety, to permit our most authoritative assessment in 2022.”

According to Public Health England; 

“Four out of 10 smokers and ex-smokers wrongly think nicotine causes most of the smoking-related cancers, when evidence shows nicotine actually carries minimal risk of harm to health. Although nicotine is the reason people become addicted to smoking, it is the thousands of other chemicals contained in cigarette smoke that cause almost all of the harm.”

An article from Public Health England;

“The evidence is clear that exposure to second hand smoke is harmful, which is why the UK has laws prohibiting smoking in enclosed public places and workplaces. These laws do not cover vaping and organisations are free to make their own policies on vaping on their premises.

E-cigarette liquid is typically composed of nicotine, propylene glycol and/or glycerine, and flavourings. Unlike cigarettes, there is no side-stream vapour emitted by an e-cigarette into the atmosphere, just the exhaled aerosol.

Our 2018 report found there have been no identified health risks of passive vaping to bystanders and our 2022 report will review the evidence again.  People with asthma and other respiratory conditions can be sensitive to a range of environmental irritants, and PHE advises organizations to take this into account and make adjustments to policies where appropriate.”

Yes, the whole industry is regulated! Canada has been a leader along with countries such as the United Kingdom to get regulations put forward quickly. Even though Canadian governments are not as forthcoming about vaping as the United Kingdom, rest assure that all “Specialty Vape Shops” in Canada has stringent guidelines they need to follow.

All e-liquids, vape juices and nic salts carried at Your Highness follow some of the most stringent manufacturing guidelines possible. Most are manufactured at GMP, ISO 9000 clean rooms  and only include four ingredients. Propylene Glycol, Vegetable Glycerine, Nicotine and Artificial Flavouring.
