The Growing Risk of Heart Disease in Smokers and E-cigarette Users
Smoking and e-cigarettes are major risk factors for heart disease with increasing cases in young adults, according to Indian TV.

According to India's New Delhi Television, the incidence of heart disease among smokers has increased exponentially and electronic cigarettes are not exempt from this trend. They are also a major risk factor for heart disease.


Individuals who smoke have a higher risk of developing heart disease, with the quantity of cigarettes being directly proportional to the risk. Compared to non-smokers, smoking a pack of cigarettes a day doubles the risk of a heart attack. It's a common misconception that smoking, or using e-cigarettes, isn't harmful. However, the public's knowledge about these issues is limited, with few knowing that even e-cigarettes can pose a threat to health and potentially lead to serious heart disease. In comparison to non-smokers, 34% of e-cigarette users may develop heart disease.


Over the past few years, there has been a growing number of heart disease patients between the ages of 20 and 30, with cases increasing each year. Research indicates that diabetes is the main risk factor for these patients developing heart disease, followed by many patients also suffering from high blood pressure as a result of living with excessive stress and tension. Additionally, being overweight or obese, consuming unhealthy food, and not engaging in enough physical activity are some other factors that increase the likelihood of developing heart disease.
