Some studies have actually shown that nicotine in moderation might be good for your brain. But if you start using nicotine, there’s a good chance that you will become physically dependent on it before long. And that is one of the main reasons people don’t recommend vaping to non-smokers.

Young non-smokers are being advised not to take up vaping.
A recent survey by Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) found vaping in people aged 11-18 had doubled from 4% in 2020 to 8.6% in 2022. However, smoking figures for the same age-group had gone down slightly from 6.7% in 2020 to 6.0% in 2022.

Why did you start vaping with zero nicotine?

My girlfriend never smoked and she hits my vape every now and again. I wouldn't call her a vaper, but she does enjoy it once in a while.

I don't see anything wrong with it at all, especially at 0 nic. Look at it this way, as long as she vapes y'all will always have something to do together!

I smoke cigars once in a while but dont smoke cigs. I loved hookah but hated how you have yo set it up everytime amd it takes up too much space. I love how I can use my mod and just turn it off when im done. plus my wife loves the smell of juice rather than cigar smoke.

I discourage it but yes there are people who begin vaping even though they never smoked. When I used to work in a vape shop they would come in and say they just want to try it and some would buy it with 0% nic juice.

Should you be concerned? Maybe. There's no doubt that ecigs do not share the same dangers as analogs, but the real long term effects are still unknown. If they are truly inconsequential, then there's nothing to worry about.

There are some people that I have met that come into the vape shop that haven't smoked in while or haven't smoked at all in their lives. I'm not sure why you would want to start vaping but I guess to some people they think this is just a cool new fad. I know some hookah smokers and cigar smokers that have made the switch.
