Scientists Warn Toxic Metals In E-Cigarettes Risk Brain Lung Damage
Recent studies and health warnings highlight significant risks associated with vaping and e-cigarette use, particularly among youth. The Malaysian Council for Tobacco Control emphasized that despite their modern appearance, vapes pose familiar dangers including addiction and drug abuse, with many vape liquids containing harmful additives and psychoactive substances. Scientific research from UC Davis revealed that some disposable e-cigarettes release hazardous levels of toxic metals like lead and nickel, in some cases exceeding those found in traditional cigarettes. Additionally, research from the Keck School of Medicine of USC found that teens exposed to cannabis and e-cigarette content on social media are more likely to start using these substances, with dual use remaining a concern despite declines in youth vaping rates. The World Health Organization also warned that emerging nicotine products, including e-cigarettes, threaten public health progress due to their aggressive marketing and harmful effects. These findings collectively underscore urgent calls for stricter regulation and enforcement to prevent youth uptake and reduce health risks related to vaping.
