E-cigarettes are used by millions of people worldwide, all with the belief that they are a safer alternative to tobacco products. However, according to research conducted by Japanese scientists, e-cigarettes contain 10 times more cancer-causing ingredients than regular cigarettes.
The groundbreaking study is the latest blow to an mass marketed product once heralded as less harmful than smoking tobacco.

In the research commissioned by the Japanese Ministry of Health, it was found that formaldehyde and acetaldehyde carcinogens are present, and prevalent, in the liquid produced by many e-cigarette products.
Furthermore, it was determined that e-cigarettes can fuel potentially life-threatening drug-resistant pathogens. This discovery comes from a lab study that tested the vapor from e-cigarettes on live methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and human cells.
According to a Japanese Ministry of Health official, the formaldehyde carcinogen is much more present in the e-cigarette liquids than in the chemicals used in regular cigarettes.
“In one brand of e-cigarette the team found more than 10 times the level of carcinogens contained in one regular cigarette. Especially when the wire (which vaporizes the liquid) gets overheated, higher amounts of those harmful substances seemed to be produced”, said researcher Naoki Kunugita.
Kunugita also added that the levels of the formaldehyde carcinogen varied in the final results.
“You call them e-cigarettes, but they are products totally different from regular tobacco. The government is now studying the possible risks associated with them, with view to looking at how they should be regulated.”
In 2015, the World Health Organization (WHO) advised governments to ban the sale of e-cigarettes to underage people because they posed potentially serious health risks.
The UN health agency said that although there’s a lack of evidence regarding the damage caused by e-cigarettes, there’s still enough evidence “to caution children and adolescents, pregnant women, and women of reproductive age” about their use.
According to the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) more than a quarter of a million youth who had never smoked a cigarette used electronic cigarettes in 2013. This number reflects a three-fold increase, from about 79,000 in 2011, to more than 263,000 in 2013.

Lol what bull shit. I wonder who funded that. The tabbacco company’s. stupid fuckers.
I have to agree. I moved to E-cigarettes from traditional tobacco 5 years ago. Use to constantly get bronchitis, colds, sinus infections, etc.; however, since vaping, I have not been sick once.
If it’s the WHO or CDC making these claims, you can guarantee they are an absolute lie. This same group will tell you that vaccines containing mercury and other toxic substances are perfectly safe to inject into a baby.
I tend to agree as well.. Vaporizers have actually helped many people get off cigarettes and sometimes you have to go by how you feel over whats being thrown at you. Hacking due to regular cigarette smoke then utilizing a vaporizer will tell you that there are benefits to cutting regular cigarette usage. I believe the cigs have more carcinogens.
Yeah, except the part that we don’t use mercury in vaccines anymore, and even when we did, it was a very MINIMAL amount.
OK, suppose for a moment that there’s something to this. So what about the “second-hand-smoke” effect on other people?
I am not disagreeing with the “freeman” chain of comments posted here previously.
So you used a news article from 2014 that has been shown to be extremely inaccurate for a news article in 2017 with no supporting evidence? Well done Baxter, very thorough
