Vaping Warning as E-Cigarettes Causes Health Problems in 4 in 5 Users

Vaping is often considered to be a safer alternative to smoking. But that does not mean it is without risks. In a new study, published in the Journal of Public Health, nearly 4 in 5 e-cigarette users reported experiencing adverse health outcomes within six hours of vaping. The results raise serious concerns about the health impacts associated with these devices. [...] However, because of the nature of the study, we do not know for sure that the e-cigarettes themselves were causing these effects. The authors said more work is needed in this area to determine the mechanisms underpinning this association. Even so, the study is an important look at the potential side implications of vaping.
