CDC makes 'breakthrough' on vaping crisis, names vitamin E oil as potential culprit

A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is the first to identify a "potential toxicant of concern" in the vaping crisis. Here's what you need to know about vitamin E oil.

As cases of vaping-related illnesses reach 2,051, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has announced a “breakthrough” in the search for a cause — the first identified toxicant: vitamin E acetate.

The news comes in a study released Friday in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, which analyzed fluid from the lungs of 29 patients with e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury (EVALI) in 10 different states. While the majority of those analyzed tested positive for either THC (82 percent) or nicotine (61 percent), the only substance to be “universally detected” in every sample was vitamin E acetate.

“These new findings are significant because for the first time we have detected a potential toxin of concern,” Anne Schuchat, MD, principal deputy director of the CDC said on a call with reporters Friday morning. “These findings provide direct evidence of vitamin E acetate at the primary site of injury within the lungs and the samples reflect patients from states across the country to date.”

Schuchat was quick to point out that vitamin E acetate may just be one of many toxins fueling EVALI cases — 39 of which have proven fatal — but she noted that the health agency tested for many other substances, including plant oil, mineral oil, petroleum-based oil and MCT oil — to no avail. “No other potential toxins were detected in the testing conducted so far,” Schuchat said.

pretty amazing in that the CDC just learned this & you knew the culprit all along

And it's not just those containing THC.

The news comes in a study released Friday in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, which analyzed fluid from the lungs of 29 patients with e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury (EVALI) in 10 different states. While the majority of those analyzed tested positive for either THC (82 percent) or nicotine (61 percent), the only substance to be “universally detected” in every sample was vitamin E acetate.

That means that 18% & 39% that didn't test positive for either THC or Nicotine still contained the Vitamin C & caused lung damage.

CDC has known Vitamin E was in there from the get go

 

[WhatKnot]

I wonder what the point of Vitamin E is in vaping?

From what I been reading its being added in addition with THC and it was all illegal none of the stuff I vape or anyone I know has any Vitamin E in it nor do the thousands of legally sold

CDC has known Vitamin E was in there from the get go

but they hadn't linked that to the lung issues until just recently - and - they are finding vit E to be the cause of the problems - and - they are finding it in ALL CASES of lung disease not just with THC & Nicotine brands of vaping materials
