Electronic cigarettes and smoking can accelerate disease within a matter of weeks, according to American scientists. They claim that electronic cigarettes contain substances that can cause serious lung damage when inhaled.


Recently, electronic cigarettes have become popular. These devices are used as inhalers and are designed to simulate tobacco without directly burning it.


Electronic cigarettes contain a liquid pod which typically includes nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. They come in various shapes and sizes, resembling cigars, pipes, pens, and even USB storage devices.

Cofepris emphasized that "lung damage related to the use of electronic cigarette products has been found, as vitamin E acetate cannot be excluded as the sole pathogen for these effects.
