In recent weeks, there have been numerous news media reports linking vaping (the use of electronic cigarettes or “e-cigarettes”) to serious lung damage and multiple deaths. A closer look at these reports suggests that some of these cases may involve certain vaping cartridges or liquids – possibly from the black market – that contain THC (the chemical in marijuana that causes intoxication), along with a vitamin E additive. Vitamin E can become toxic when heated up in vaping devices, but vitamin E usually isn’t present in nicotine-based e-cigarettes sold commercially.To get more news about E-cigarettes supplies, you can visit univapo official website.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1,479 cases of lung injury associated with vaping have been reported in 49 states and 1 U.S. territory, and 33 deaths have been confirmed in 24 states as of Oct. 15, 2019. While the exact cause of the lung injury is not known, all reported cases have a history of nicotine-based e-cigarette use, and in most of these cases, patients report also recently having used e-cigarettes containing THC.
In short, it’s unclear whether standard, nicotine-based e-cigarettes played a role in the reported deaths and lung damage. Either way, the media coverage has prompted new conversations about the safety of nicotine vaping and concerns that teenagers are becoming addicted to it. In many cases, teens begin vaping without ever smoking traditional cigarettes, highlighting the fact that vaping isn’t only being used to kick the smoking habit. That said, recent evidence suggests that e-cigarettes help people quit smoking traditional cigarettes, though their addiction to nicotine continues in the majority of cases.
What are E-cigarettes?
E-cigarettes first hit the U.S. market in 2006, and many people were excited to try vaping as an alternative to traditional cigarettes. As part of Lung Cancer Awareness Month in November, we examine the science on vaping and what research says about its risks.
First, a clarification: the terms “vaping” and “e-cigarettes” generally mean the same thing. The term “e-cigarette” more commonly refers to the smaller, often cigarette-shaped and in some cases disposable “pens” or cartridges that are commonly sold at chain retail stores. There are other vape products that are larger handheld devices, which have a refillable tank that accepts nicotine-based liquid that often is sold in bottles at specialty vape shops. Both styles of devices use batteries to heat up nicotine juice, or “e-juice,” until it produces a vapor, which is then inhaled by the user.
