Tek MCT oil (medium-chain triglycerides)

[Tranquility]

Fun that this old thread pops up again, as in the current context, I would be very wary of using MCT based liquids.

cf. >> http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/teens-vaping-and-lung-collapse.43079/

tl/dr: the likely culprit or so it seems are long chain lipids

Don't you see? These are "medium" chain lipids. That must make all the difference.

Is this also related to eating it in edibles? :-O

I've heard of nothing that would indicate eating MCT is dangerous to the lungs. (Or, the suspected culprit for that matter.)

Probably not: MCT is digested normally AFAIK...it’s not a heated aerosol breathed deep into the lungs, so probably not related to the deadly lung issues cropping up

@OldNewbie: until we know more, maybe it's safer to stick to water-based products like PG/PEG (or even VG but it doesn't seem to work well)

...for inhalation of course. Ingestion should have no effect on lungs whatsoever.

I'm going to try Distillates for first in a few weeks. Now I'm using carts from dispensary. 250 mg carts with mct in cart also.Ive actually been pretty happy with them. But like as others have experienced, g d they can go quick.
Will Distillate give me more bang for my buck??? Man I hope so.
