I am 37 years of age I have been vaping a little over a year. I used to smoke menthol cigarettes newporrts in particular. Being a recovering stroke victim and type 2 diabetic smoking was no good for my health. I got introduced to vaping and was skeptical at first but noticed a change after a short time. My breathing became better I was able to taste food better and felt better overall. I’m proud to say that I’m a vaper and although the long-term effect may not be known fully it is kept me from using tobacco which is something that I wanted to do for a long time so please take my testimony into consideration when thinking about these laws that you are enforcing to treat vaping the same as smoking smoking has killed plenty I haven’t heard it reported medical case of someone dying from vaping yet just accidents from Miss educated people about it they made up those rules based off not understanding the science behind vaping which there is plenty of information out there for them to educate themselves I am a full supporter of vaping especially when it comes to someone stopping tobacco usage and prolonging their health I have been smoking for 4 to 5 years consistently with a 7-month break but I was clearly using cigarettes on a daily basis I’m proud to say that vaping has allowed me to no longer use tobacco I have a great selection of flavors to choose from and as long as the diacetyl testing continues to make sure that the liquids are safe for ingestion I will always be a supporter thank you very much I hope that somebody was inspired or even touched by my testimonial thank you
