Not a good idea.: Vaping even 1 nicotine-free electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) “can produce transient changes in blood vessels similar to those seen in early atherosclerosis” REF: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/917031. E- cigarettes may contain nicotine, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals (like lead, tin & nickel), ultrafine particles (which may be drawn deep into lungs, diacetyl & Nicotine.
