۲۰۱۵کی تحقیق کے مطابق الیکٹرک سگریٹ میں پروپیلین گلائکول اور گلیسرول کو گرم کرنے سےایسے مرکبات بنتے ہیں جو فارملڈہائڈ خارج کرتے ہیں،بین الاقوامی ایجنسی برائے تحقیق کے مطابق فارملڈہائیڈ گروپ 1 کا کارسنجن ہے،یعنی یہ کینسر کا سبب بن سکتا ہے، #vapelife https://t.co/fUaTzCE5k5

@cholicacid @robertoaxelrod No dije que la nicotina fuera el problema, a lo que iba es que las afecciones respiratorias no vienen solo por el uso de THC o CBD. Mira te dejo uno de los tantos papers que salieron en NEJM https://t.co/aOcCj4wPgE

@doctorhumano Uno de los componentes del vapor en estos dispositivos es formaldeído,epigenético asociado con cancer. Es muy interesante ver como "voluntariamente" una gran cantidad de personas se incluyen en un estudio observacional que causará cancer en muchos de ellos https://t.co/N0YO2Z3iXN
