What IQOS hides from its customers

1

I would not like to specifically complain about IQOS but to express my own observations on this topic. As it seemed to me, based on my personal experience, when I switched to IQOS, I started smoking more. That is I gave up cigarettes, but now instead of two packs of cigarettes in 3 days as I used to, now I smoke a pack a day of IQOS. Maybe because you don't smoke like real cigarettes. It seems that IQOS positions itself as if it is a way out of tobacco addiction but in fact it turns out that I started smoking more. Accordingly, spend more money. According to IQOS, their "sticks" contain 95% less harmful substances compared to cigarettes.

Well .. well if that's the case, but I tried to find information about this and it turned out that there are no independent studies, but only studies made by Phillip Morris themselves. It's strange why no one has done independent research so far, maybe the company influences their concealment? Or maybe it's not so easy to do... In general, there are some questions that were initially hushed up in IQOS advertising. I do not rate this time, I ask resource users to share their impressions of using IQOS. And perhaps the company itself will shed light on these issues

That's right I also definitely started smoking more when I switched to iqos. Sometimes I even buy a pack of regular cigarettes because iqos does not replace cigarettes in effect. I also have doubts about the advisability of switching to iqos... : /

Yes, these IQOS are complete crap! I don't understand why anyone would smoke them. There is no normal smoke/vapor, it doesn't make you smoke normally and after it you quickly want to smoke again. And of course, we shouldn't forget about those "tests" without independent experts. A lot has already been said about this here. Don't give your money to these scammers. Or better yet, boycott all Philip Morris products)) it's difficult but theoretically possible... )

I would like to add that contrary to popular belief that IQOS is much less harmful to those who are near a smoker - this is simply a blatant lie. For those who are near a smoker, IQOS is almost as toxic as regular cigarettes. But due to the fact that the smoke from Iqos does not have such a distinct smell as cigarettes, it seems that it is not as harmful to others. Because of this, smokers begin to smoke IQOS much more than near others. I will tell you from my own experience - if before I went out on the balcony and tried to keep my family as far away from cigarette smoke as possible, then I have been using IQOS completely calmly right in the room for almost six months. Of course, until I learned the truth. This is an excerpt from an article published by independent researchers: "Releases more toxic substances than the manufacturer claims. Scientists have identified 62 compounds, with only 10 of them reported by the manufacturer. Among the unaccounted for are three highly toxic substances (diacetyl, acetylacetone, hydroxymethylfurfural) and one carcinogenic (diethylhexyl phthalate). Researchers from the University of California also found that when heating tobacco, the plastic filter of the device melts and releases formaldehyde cyanohydrin, a toxin that is dangerous even in small quantities. Researchers found 84% of the nicotine of a regular cigarette in the vapor of the device, as well as other toxic compounds. This refutes the myth about the safety of iQOS for people near the smoker: they still suffer from the effects of passive smoking." In addition, it turns out that if you smoke near a child, the child begins to slowly get used to nicotine and his risk of becoming addicted to smoking increases. F**king Iqos did not warn about this, but rolled out its lying "research" ...

    Wow, dude! I didn't know about this sh*t. I just googled it and you're right about passive smoking. So I've been smoking my family for almost a year now! The official Iqos websites don't even mention it! What a load of crap...
