ceramic heating element?

[tha del sound]

for a while now i've been using primarily vaporization to smoke as i figured it's the healthiest way, ya know? well, i've heard rumors that you get small doses of metal ions in your lungs because of the metal heating element. somebody told me that they are now using ceramic heating elements because of the metal ions. anyone know if this is true? sounded kinda like some bullshit to me the first time i heard it, but maybe. hopefully not too many metal ions get in if it is true.

Vaporizers have had ceramic heating elements for a while now. They break down pretty quickly.

Metal ions? Maybe, but probably about as bad as drinking out of an aluminum can.

really? i wonder why the shops around me still carry metal heating elements.

sounds kinda BS to me about those ions

i know, right? as soon as i finally replaced my old bong with a new one, everyone starts telling me to vaporize so i invested in a volcano because it's the healthiest way (even says so on the box lol). and now they tell me that the volcano is putting metal ions in my lungs?
