That's what the electronic cigarette flavors do with your cells and your heart

The 19459003 experiment Electronic cigarettes, sweetened with aromas like clove and vanilla, can destroy the cells of the blood vessels and even the heart when they are devoid of nicotine.

which borders the arteries, veins and heart, to the popular types of electronic cigarette flavors during laboratory experiments. They tested the effect of various doses and concentrations of nine popular chemical flavors: bananas, butter, cinnamon, clove, camphor, mint, strawberries, vanilla and "burnt" taste that impart a similar taste to popcorn or tobacco

High concentrations of these flavors destroyed the cells during the laboratory examination and revealed that five flavors of flannel, mint, cinnamon, clove and burnt flavor weakened the secretion of Nitric oxide. "The loss of nitric oxide is dangerous because it is related to symptoms of heart disease such as heart attacks and strokes," says Jessica Wittermann of the Boston University School of Medicine and University of Boston. lead author of the study

. "This study is developing into heart disease and is an early indicator of toxicity."

"Our study suggests that added flavors damage the heart and blood vessels even in the absence of products and other elements that burn (cigarettes)."

The big American tobacco electronic cigarettes are devices The work of the heat battery source turns the liquid nicotine and aromas into a cloud of steam is inhaled.

and even with the existing fluid does not contain electronic cigarettes and nicotine, the lungs are exposed to chemical aroma remain in the vapor inhalation. In the present study, researchers examined cells from nine non-smokers and 12 normal cigarette smokers and examined cover cells from a human heart. 19659003] Laboratory tests have shown a decrease in the ability of cells taken from smokers to excrete nitric oxide even before exposure to chemical aroma

Non-smokers have reduced their secretion of Nitric oxide after exposure to chemical flavors. Better or worse Human health compared to nicotine, which also severely affects the blood vessels and the heart. (Reuters)
