Is Vaping Low Risk?
Electric cigarettes are electronically powered appliances that heat a fluid to form a vapor that you inhale. While that vapor does not contain the tars associated with traditional tobacco cigarettes, the vapor does indeed carry various other chemical compounds that may bring about injury.
The liquid ordinarily includes mixtures of propyleve, glycol and glycerin. Liquids could also come with varying levels of pure nicotine and flavors that will be transmitted along with the vapor for inhalation.
Interenational cigarette manufacturers are trying to restore its image, moving into the flourishing electronic cigarette market while continuing to sell theie regular deadly cigarettes. It has kept public health officials in Canada, Britian. and the United States concerned.
Many hundreds of clinical trials have already been done on electronic cigarettes. The majority are modest clinical trials and many are studies that lack a satisfactory placebo.
Unfortunately, many of those clinical tests have been subsidized by e-cigarette companies. They tend to review only one brand of e-cigarette, and frequently just one model. The data that is analyzed is likely to bias the outcomes, favoring e-cigarettes and demonstrates a severe conflict of interest. This lowers the reliability in their results.
While there are age limits for purchasing electronic cigarettes, that fails to hinder young adolescents from picking up these devices. Over the past Five years their use by underage teens (and even younger children) has expanded significantly. Way back in 2015, 1 out of 6 high school students said they had experience vaping in the last month.
From the adolescents in one study who had been non-smokers before using e-cigs, a fifth had started to smoke regular tobacco cigarettes.
