Is nicotine bad for you? I thought it was just what made cigarettes addictive, and all the other stuff is what made them unhealthy. Happy to be proved wrong -- I'll let some eCig friends know ;)

The main problem with nicotine is that it increases your risk for heart disease. It’s also somewhat carcinogenic.

It's also extraordinarily addictive. That's an ethical problem in and of itself.
