To determine the harmful effects of this type of tobacco, recently, scientists from the University of California (UC), USA conducted a study of five drug samples and found some errors in the body design. , steam sprayers as well as labels; at the same time expressed concern about quality control and other health-related issues.
The researchers concluded that e-cigarettes are a potential hazard and call on managers to remove the product from the market until their safety is adequately demonstrated.
Unlike regular cigarettes, e-cigarettes vaporize nicotine along with other ingredients found in cigarettes in the form of a mist spray for users to breathe air. In theory, they produce less toxic substances when the fiber is burned in regular cigarettes.
However, no one knows the chemical composition of the vapors emitted from e-cigarettes, so some people still believe that the drug can replace safe for conventional cigarettes.
There are currently no scientific studies conducted on e-cigarettes and their safety, so the first study of these UC researchers showed that the product has many shortcomings, which can cause issues serious public health problems in the future if those errors are not corrected.
Researchers also believe that electronic cigarette packs lack important indications about ingredients, usage and essential warnings. The crevice of the casing can release the nicotine out of the way, affecting the environment and the surrounding people.
There is currently no appropriate method of destruction of electronic cigarette products and associated accessories; including a cigarette case, which can make nicotine absorbed into water and soil sources, adversely affecting the environment. Electronic cigarette production, quality control, distribution and advertising are also not strictly controlled.
Kamlesh Asotra , UC's curator of tobacco-related diseases research, said more e-cigarettes needed to be taken to protect users' health, even for those who said no to it.
Contrary to the claims of e-cigarette manufacturers and marketers, in fact, no one knows about the toxicity of vapors released from these cigarettes.
