Ingredients in e-liquids should be modified as needed (if indeed there is even the smallest risk of harm), and the industry should continue to provide healthy evidence for vaping. \u00a0Self regulation is encouraged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, the Royal College of Physicians released a landmark study estimating that vaping is at least 95% less harmful than smoking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more information on how you can start vaping, visit your <a href=\"http:\/\/vaporgalleriapittsburgh.com\/\">local e-cigarette<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1146\" src=\"http:\/\/vaporgalleria.com\/pittsburgh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2017\/03\/Depositphotos_81025068_s-2015-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vaporgalleria.com\/pittsburgh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2017\/03\/Depositphotos_81025068_s-2015-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vaporgalleria.com\/pittsburgh\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2017\/03\/Depositphotos_81025068_s-2015.jpg 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/> store<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just when something arrives on the market to help people quit smoking and give others a pleasurable \u201chobby\u201d that doesn\u2019t cause addiction or weight gain, in comes the FDA! \u00a0The FDA protects us from a lot of things, but they also can take away things that actually have benefits.
