Vaping May Cause 'Substantial' Heart Failure Risk Increase

While vaping may be a safer alternative to smoking tobacco, previous studies have associated e-cigarette use with an increased risk for lung disease, asthma, damaged blood vessels and heart disease, particularly among those with preexisting health conditions. Now, a large study lead by MedStar Health in Baltimore has shown that e-cigarette users may be 19 percent more likely to develop heart failure compared to those who have never vaped.

  1. Compared to those who never vaped.
    Okay, but what about compared to those who continue to smoke?
    The bottom line is that vaping is effective for reducing harm in smokers and effective for helping smokers quit through the use of progressively lower nicotine concentrations in the cartridges.
    It is not a safe alternative for people who want to smoke but don't want the risks of smoking.
