1.In electric cigarette liquids contain propylene glycol or glycerin, nicotine, and flavor enhancers.
• Propylene glycol or glycerol serves to produce water vapor. Research shows that inhaling propylene glycol may cause
respiratory irritation in some individuals.
• Nicotine is found in different concentrations, between 0-100 mg/mL in one electric cigarette.
• Flavor enhancers, such as chocolate, vanilla, fruit, and others, so that electric smokers can enjoy a certain flavor
sensation in each suction.
• Other components are tobacco-specific nitrosamine (TSNA). TSNA is a carcinogen compound found in tobacco and
tobacco cigarettes. Nitrosamines in small amounts are found in electrical cigarette liquids. The higher the nicotine
content, the higher the TSNA level. In addition to TSNA, also found the content of metal compounds, such as
chromium, nickel, and tin.

  1. The biggest danger of tobacco cigarettes is smoke and electric cigarettes do not burn tobacco so it does not produce
    smoke but water vapor. Research shows that the levels of harmful chemicals present in electrical cigarettes are a
    fraction of the content contained in tobacco cigarettes. But the content of these hazardous materials can vary.
    The study found that endothelial cells in the heart arteries show a clear stress response when exposed to tobacco
    smoke, but not to electronic cigarettes. This shows the danger of fewer electric cigarettes than tobacco cigarettes.
    However, this still needs further investigation. Experts are still debating whether electric cigarettes are better or worse
    than tobacco cigarettes.
    Electric cigarettes also contain nicotine which is one of the addictive substances that are also found in tobacco
    cigarettes. When you stop using it, you will feel like always wearing it again, and can cause feelings of irritability,
    depression, anxiety, and anxiety. It is dangerous for people suffering from heart disease.
    Still, using electric cigarettes does not keep your body safe from the health hazards it causes. Using both electric and
    tobacco cigarettes, both cause adverse effects on your health, whether in the short or long term. The only way to
    maintain your health is to quit smoking, whatever type of cigarette it is. Smoking once a day can even harm your
    health. Maybe now the users of electric cigarettes have not suffered health problems, but for the long-term impact
    may arise. The health effects of new cigarettes appear within the next few years.
  2. How dangerous is the electric cigarette for our body?
    On the other hand, some studies show that electric cigarettes are almost as dangerous as tobacco cigarettes. Based on data obtained by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), several studies have shown that:
    • Nicotine in an electric cigarette is absorbed by the body of its users and the people around it.
    • Nicotine is very dangerous for young electric cigarette users because it has a negative impact on brain development.
    • Nicotine is very harmful to the health of pregnant women and fetuses in the womb. Using electric cigarettes or even
    just being around people who use electric cigarettes can make pregnant women exposed to nicotine and other toxic
    chemicals present in electric cigarettes.
    • Steam generated from electronic cigarettes is not water vapor. It contains nicotine and can contain other chemicals
    that can interfere with health and contaminate the air.
    • Steam generated by electric cigarettes and fluids present in dangerous electric cigarettes. Children and adults can be
    poisoned by swallowing, inhaling, or absorbing the liquid through the skin or eyes.
    • Harmful additional chemicals have been found in some electric cigarettes. These chemicals, such as those containing
    metals, volatile organic compounds, and nitrosamine. This level tends to be lower than tobacco cigarettes, but there
    is no way to know how much harmful content of electric cigarettes because it has not been set.
    Other studies also show the dangers of electric cigarettes (vape). Reported by science news, research shows that chemicals in electrical cigarettes can damage lung tissue and reduce the ability of lung cells to keep the lungs from germs and other harmful substances. This is because the content of nicotine in cigarettes causes lung cells to be easily penetrated by substances from outside the body.

So, do you still want to keep smoking after knowing the dangers of vape? Love your body and those around you.
