It can be contaminant in consumer products; this has resulted in numerous epidemics of poisoning since the early 20th century. Dr. Frank Leone, a pulmonary expert at the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center, said, “A top concern is the nicotine delivery rate, with nicotine patches and gum, nicotine is regulated, but with e-cigarettes, heat creates free base form of nicotine that is more addictive.

What this is saying is that smoking marijuana, although not great for your lungs, has less of a negative impact.
