A new study warns that Vaping or electronic cigarettes cause DNA mutations that cause cancer.
Researchers make copies of the bladder and human lung cells by testing on vaping vapors designed to avoid carcinogenic byproducts from tobacco.
They found the cells mutated and became cancerous at a much higher rate than expected, and smoke-exposed mice also experienced significant DNA damage.
The University of New York team warned their findings, published Jan. 29, 2018, questioned popular belief that nicotine voting is a safe alternative to smoking in the cigarette itself.
It comes just days after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rejected a healthy iQOS electronic vault Philip Morris product, saying it was no healthier than tobacco.
E-cigarette smoke (ECS) delivers nicotine through aerosols without burning tobacco.
While tobacco smoke contains nitrosamines and many carcinogenic chemicals from combustion, the ECS contains nicotine and some relatively harmless organic solvents. Consequently, vaping, commonly called colloquial, has been promoted not carcinogenic; safer tobacco substitutes.
A recent study, as reported by the Daily Mail, even found that electronic smokers have a 97 percent less lung carcinogen in body fluids compared to tobacco smokers.
However, experts warn that it does not mean safe and not at risk of getting cancer.
The new study by Moon-shong Tang, from the department of environmental medicine, is an investigation into the belief that other tobacco products, not nicotine, are drugs that cause cancer and damage other health.
They concluded that although vape provides fewer carcinogens than tobacco smoke, electronic smokers may have a higher risk than nonsmokers developing lung, bladder and heart disease.
The FDA voted against Philip Morris International's claim that electronic cigarettes can predict lower rates of illness and death in humans. This vape device has been sold in over 30 countries and Philip Morris aims to make it the first "risk reduction" tobacco product approved by the United States.
The opening of the FDA will mark a major milestone in efforts by industry and government officials to provide alternative tobacco products to US smokers. Adult smoking rates have dropped to an all-time low of 15 percent, although smoking remains a major cause of preventable illness and death in the country.
