(145 posts)Who are these companies you speak of? There are hundreds of companies, and hundreds of e-juice makers. The e-cigarettes are cheaper than buying cigarettes.
They don't have to submit any research to the FDA being an tobacco product, any and all research that is being done is by the e-cig community and for the e-cig community.
Only drug companies have to prove with studies the safety of their drugs or drug devices.
Like I said before the FDA is very limited what they can do as a tobacco product. They can not ban nicotine only Congress can do that and they can not ban tobacco. They are able to regulate for standard and safety.
BTW the levels of nicotine in second hand vapor is less than what you would get from eating a potato. Thats right potatoes, eggplant, red peppers are also in the Nightshade family and have nicotine in them.
The nicotine in the e-cig is FDA approved and is the same Nicotine that you will find in the NRTs, also the levels of chemicals found in e-juice was the same as found in the FDA approved Nicorette inhaler. PG and VG are both FDA approved for internal use, and used in the medical field, drugs, beauty aids, and many more everyday use items.
