Disposable vapes are battery-powered alternatives to cigarette used by adult users of nicotine products and adult smokers looking for a potentially less harmful solution to their traditional habit. They work by heating up e-liquid (that often contains nicotine) to produce a vapour that is inhaled by the user. Because there is no combustion involved in the process, no smoke or ash is produced.
Vuse Go vapes are prefilled with e-liquid (there are two nicotine strengths to choose from) and a lithium-ion battery that lasts for up to 500 puffs. All you need to do is take a puff to automatically activate your Vuse Go.

Regardless of whether you are a regular vaper or new to vaping, it’s understandable that you might have safety concerns about using a disposable vape. And it doesn’t help that the internet is spilling over with contradictory information about the safety of disposable vapes and the potential health impacts of using them.
Separating reliable information from fake news can be tricky, but there is credible material online that supports the assertion that using disposable vapes is a reduced-risk alternative to smoking cigarettes**.
Researchers at Kings College in London found that smokers who switch to vaping would experience a ‘substantial reduction’ in their exposure to toxic substances that cause cancer, heart and lung disease. This claim is based on an extensive review of more than 400 published studies, many of which examined biomarkers of toxicant exposure (the levels of toxic substances occurring in the body after smoking and vaping).

The first step to safe vaping is to choose a vaping device manufactured by a trusted brand like Vuse.

Most of the dangers of smoking are linked to the sideeffects of combustion, and not to the presence of nicotine in tobacco.
In the UK, the NHS maintains that vaping – and that includes using disposable vapes – holds a fraction of the risk of smoking cigarettes. Although nicotine is a highly addictive substance, and vaping is not completely risk-free, most of the harm from cigarette smoking comes from the tar, carbon monoxide and other chemicals found in the smoke. When you vape there is no combustion, thus no smoke, and although the e-liquid and vapour produced contain some potentially harmful chemicals also found in cigarette smoke, these occur at a much lower level.

South African law does not currently make provision for the sale of vapes to under-18s but as members of the Vapour Products Association of South Africa (VPASA), we are committed to ensuring that our products are only marketed to adult nicotine users looking for a less harmful alternative to traditional cigarettes.
At Vuse, upholding quality vaping standards is at the heart of what we do. We have contributed to the world’s first voluntary standards on e-cigarettes, AFNOR, and the British Standards Institute. All Vuse products are tightly regulated and comply with UK and EU laws and have been notified to the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

Having a thorough understanding of the benefits – and potential risks – associated with vaping is essential for peace of mind, regardless of whether you’re an experienced vaper or new to the scene. It’s important to remember that disposable vapes are not for everyone. If you’re under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding, have an unstable heart condition, diabetes or hypertension, or if you’re allergic or sensitive to nicotine, vapes (disposable or otherwise) are not for you.
