Nicotine does not cause cancer!
Nicotine causes circulation constriction of the arterial lumen in your arteries and that promotes arteriosclerosis, blood clot formation, high blood pressure (caused in part by the narrowing of the lumen (interior tubular diameter of the arteries)) and coronary heart disease. Nicotine users are 10 times more likely to develop PAD (peripheral artery disease) -- blood clots and poor circulation that can cause amputation ) starting in your 50s.
Nicotine will kill you but it wont give you lung cancer. So how would you prefer to hasten your life?
I haven't smoked for 4 years now I smoked cigarettes for 40 some years. It took me 2 years to get over the occasional nicotine ''jones'' and 9 months to get over the hourly urges -- it is not easy to stop an addiction. With ecigs you are just altering the intake method to satisfy your nicotine addiction and all the bad effects of nicotine consumption just continue.
So, if you want to keep smoking or vaping -- make sure you have insurance to pay for the medical treatment you may need -- it ain't cheap ...
