Dear Genie community,
In today's post we would like to address an extremely important topic that affects us all - the currently very popular vapes. In recent years, more and more people have started smoking e-cigarettes to replace hookahs and cigarettes. Vapes are considered convenient and easy to use, especially while driving or meeting friends.
However, using e-cigarettes is not without risk. As I learned firsthand, they can even have serious health effects. Due to ongoing health problems, I had to have a complete blood test done some time ago. My family doctor initially couldn't find any abnormalities, but when I still didn't feel any improvement, I decided to make an appointment with a blood count specialist.
The results were shocking: it turned out that my blood contained exceptionally high levels of mercury. The doctor asked me directly whether I smoked e-cigarettes because more and more patients are coming to him with similar problems and he now suspects a connection between the use of vapes and high mercury levels in the blood.
This realization made me rethink my attitude towards e-cigarettes. While I appreciate the benefits of vapes , I now realize that they can also pose significant risks. I would encourage all readers to think carefully about using e-cigarettes and educate themselves about the potential risks before making a decision.
Have you had similar experiences or do you have concerns about using e-cigarettes ? We look forward to your comments and opinions.
Best regards,
The Genie team

Erstmal: Ich dampfe schon etwas länger und habe sowohl große E-Zigaretten, E-Zigaretten als Podsystem und Einweg E-Zigaretten ausprobiert. Zu dem Thema habe ich eine ganz klare Meinung zu den Vapes/Einweg E Zigaretten: Die gehören alle samt verboten. Warum? Ganz einfach: Alleine nur, wenn man sich den Umweltaspekt rauspickt, dann sieht man bei den Einweg E-Zigaretten: Die Akkus in den verbauten Geräten sind eigentlich mehrfach wieder nutzbar zu machen. Stattdessen werden die E Zigaretten, nachdem sie „leer gedampft“ wurden, abgegeben. Abgegeben schreibe ich bewusst, da die Dinger nicht in den Hausmüll gehören. Ich könnte aber drauf wetten, dass die Dinger zu 90% irgend wo hingeschmissen werden, anstatt sie ordentlich zu recyceln. Es gibt außerdem mittlerweile auch keinen Grund mehr, sich eine Einweg E Zigarette zu kaufen. Es gibt genug wiederverwendbare Pod Systeme, die man eben aufladen und mit Liquid befüllen kann. Liquid und eine „Mehrweg“ E-Zigarette währen wahrscheinlich sogar günstiger, als sich andauernd diese Umweltverschmutzung im Miniformat zu kaufen. Da aber die Dinger zu teilst Billigpreisen quasi aufgezwungen werden (Shisha Shops, Shisha Online Shops) kauft man natürlich ein. Meiner Meinung nach sollte jeder Shisha Shop eine passende Alternative (eben ein Mehrweg Podsystem) im Sortiment anbieten.

Es kommt darauf an unter welchen Aspekten man Vapes raucht. Als Entwöhnung fürs Rauchen ist die Vape eine hervorragende Alternative zu herkömmlichen Zigaretten oder Shishas. Nichtsdestotrotz kann man sagen, dass die Vape für Viele ein Einstieg in das Rauchen ist, vor allem bei jungen Jugendlichen.
Ich persönlich halte meine Finger fern davon.
