Electronic cigarettes contribute to the increased risk of atherosclerosis

The use of electronic cigarettes can even help cut the addiction , but does not reduce the risk of atherosclerosis , the major cause of heart attacks worldwide . Study in tissues of rats and humans showed that exposure to nicotine - the addictive substance main cigarette and is also present in electronic cigarettes - can cause damage to heart cells .
" The results suggest that electronic cigarettes do not reduce the risk of smoking to heart disease," said Chi - Ming Hai , a researcher at Brown University in the United States , and author of the study recently presented at the annual meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology .

The increased risk of developing atherosclerosis in smokers of ordinary cigarettes because of other chemicals have been proven some years ago , but still do not know what mechanism caused the nicotine was related to the invasion of vascular smooth muscle cells - cells found on the inside of the blood vessels. Now , tests at the vascular smooth muscle cells of rats and humans have shown that there is a direct relationship between nicotine and atherosclerosis .
Typically , vascular muscle cells are around the blood vessels to help maintain blood flow and blood pressure under control. The nicotine and other chemicals cigarette , however , makes these cells act as " bits " in the bore of the protection of the heart vascular cell layer , thereby forming the process of atherosclerosis , plaque blocking the blood flow.electronic cigarette wholesale supplier
In the study, appeared as nicotine conductive increase invasion of vascular smooth muscle cells from the medial layer of the arterial wall to the inner layer of the arterial wall , which increases the plaque formation in atherosclerosis .

The study of Chi - Ming Hai contradicts what is said about electronic cigarettes , promoted as safe nicotine delivery systems for health . In the electronic cigarette , different from ordinary cigarettes , nicotine is provided in the form of steam and without agents , known as carcinogens , in tobacco smoke .
The scientist says that on the one hand , the use of nicotine in the treatment helps to mill the common cigarette, on the other , the long-term consumption of nicotine through the electronic cigarette increases the risk of developing atherosclerosis . " Still , I believe the understanding of the mechanisms between nicotine and atherosclerosis may lead to new therapies to minimize the harmful effects of nicotine on the vascular system , "he said .

Electronic cigarettes are out of control, may open the door for the introduction of legal highs - alert scientists.

Electronic cigarettes are out of control, may open the door for the introduction of legal highs - alert scientists. After a series of our publications Pomeranian Voivode Ryszard Stachurski took a closer look at shops offering electronic tobacco substitutes. "Official Baltic" first came to the details of the latest report by the Trade Inspection. Experts have discovered a number of irregularities.
In late November, the Trade Inspectorate informed about the control of one of the selling points in Gdansk. Then it turned out , inter alia, that on all four batches checked e - cigarette kits was vain to seek instructions and warnings in Polish. Not all the aromatic fluids , constitute "contributions " of devices possess the necessary determination.wholesale e cigarettes

In the last quarter of this year - as a result of the report of the Regional Inspectorate of Commerce in Gdansk - checked a total of four points offers e - cigarettes: two in Gdansk and two in Slupsk. Inspectors were , among others, on a fork 140 lots of fluids , contributions to the devices.
Samples from three batches of liquids for filling of e-cigarettes went to the lab in Lodz.
- Completion of the study is planned for January 2014 - according to Roman Nowak .
- The subject of e-cigarettes Polish Society of Health Programmes dealing with for several years . I watched the process in which these devices began to be popular. And this is a problem, especially in Poland, because they are not subject to any regulations , even one that includes even the usual tobacco products - says Dr. Luke Balwicki of the Polish Society of Health Programmes . - Often - as indeed show the results of the checks - that users of e-cigarettes do not know what 's in them , how it is distributed , where it comes from ... - He added.

Balwicki notes that the Polish Society of Health Programmes received notification that " what is written on the packaging of e- cigarettes has nothing for their content ."

- The point is Various concentrations of the composition of the contributions to the security devices or liquids , which can easily spill - explains doctor . I said: - But what outraged me the most , especially as a doctor, a widespread availability of this product, without any age restrictions. For this reason, I am glad that the voivodship office , using their powers, ordered the inspection of e-cigarettes .

Meanwhile, the report of the Institute of Market Economy Research shows that e- cigarettes are already up to 900 thousand . Poles. In comparison to the previous year, the number of e - smokers increased by one hundred percent.

Officials predict that electronic cigarettes will be inspected next year as well .
