Vape

With Vapor, one describes the activity of converting an liquid liquid into an Clearomizer: by means of an e-cigarette, under the supply of electricity from a battery into Vapor. This Vapor is then inhaled by the Vapers. In contrast to smoking, this happens at a much lower temperature, and there is no combustion process (such as smoking a tobacco cigarette, cigar, pipe or shisha). Due to the lack of combustion process, vapors is very, very much less harmful than smoking.
Recent, recognized studies from the UK confirm that cloud is at least (!) 95% less harmful than smoking. There are even more than 150 other studies that result in a similar result.
The English term  Vape - was awarded the word of the year 2014 by the Oxford Dictionary.

Vapers

Vapers are people who inhale the vapor of an e-cigarette. According to recent studies, most of the Vapers have moved from tobacco cigarettes and have been able to greatly reduce, or even complete, the consumption of tobacco cigarettes. Vapers, which were previously non-smokers, however, according to these studies, there is hardly any. The gateway effect - as mentioned by opponents of vaping - is absolutely negligible (due to the many successful smokers).

Vegetable Glycerin

Vegetable Glycerin (vegetable glycerin) is one of the main ingredients of most liquids. In the case of steamers, the abbreviation VG has been used as a designation. Vegetable glycerin is slightly thick at room temperature, clear and colorless, has almost no smell but a slightly sweetish taste. It is basic building block of all fats and has a moisturizing effect. VG has long been approved as a food additive with the number E 422 and is used mainly as a livestock feed additive, for cosmetic products, but also in the food industry. VG produces a dense and soft vapor, which can not transport the taste of the aromas in the liquid as well as propylene glycol (PG). Therefore, the dosage of the flavor in VG-heavy liquid is usually higher than with PG-heavy liquid.
