Vaping industry blog VaperSoul.com has questioned the validity of the recent e-cig formaldehyde study that claims vaping could be more cancerous than smoking.

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, January 28, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Vape blog, VaperSoul.com has strongly criticized the recent study released by the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) which claims e-cigarettes are dangerous due to hidden levels of formaldehyde.

The study has been disputed by many in the vaping world, including VaperSoul.com who believe the facts about vaping have been misrepresented to deliberately cause alarm and panic.

"The problem with studies like this is that they don’t present the whole picture. The researchers used e-cigarettes with seemingly little knowledge of the device or the safety precautions, and then rang the alarm bells," said, Abhi Chatterjee, co-founder of VaperSoul.com (http://www.vapersoul.com)

Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen and as a result the study concluded vaping is likely to pose a higher cancer risk than smoking.

VaperSoul.com is crying foul. NEJM researchers found formaldehyde when the device was used at very high voltage settings. High temperatures result in unpleasant tastes and damaged devices - an uncommon situation most e-cig users are unlikely to enjoy.

Vaping devices used at recommended, lower voltage settings are unlikely to cause this issue. VaperSoul.com encourages new vapers to always follow safety instructions for their e-cigs.

"Like many others in the vaping family, at VaperSoul.com, we’re always encouraging smokers to kick the tobacco habit. Unfortunately, misleading studies like this undo a lot of our work because smokers think vaping is no different to smoking, which is simply untrue", concluded a frustrated Chatterjee, of VaperSoul.com.

Vaping and e-cigarettes are hotly debated topics, within and outside the industry. Lawmakers are increasingly making efforts to regulate a growing but still-nascent industry. Many in the vaping community also continue to actively campaign against big tobacco.
