A study conducted in the United States has revealed that e-cigarettes cause inflammation in all organs. In a related evaluation, Associate Professor Dr. Mustafa Aydın, President of the Turkish Society for Combating Tobacco (TSSD), stated, “E-cigarettes are as dangerous as regular cigarettes. We must oppose all forms of smoking for the health of future generations.”
Nicotine damages many organs, especially the lungs, and shortens lifespan. E-cigarettes are often presented as an alternative to combat the lethal effects of smoking, but a study in the U.S. has scientifically proven that e-cigarettes are just as harmful as traditional cigarettes.
Evaluating the results of the research conducted at the University of California, San Diego, Dr. Aydın reiterated, “E-cigarettes are as dangerous as regular cigarettes. We must oppose all forms of smoking for the health of future generations.”
“SERIOUSLY THREATENING HUMAN HEALTH”
Dr. Aydın pointed out that e-cigarettes increase the risk of diseases in the stomach and intestines, particularly causing inflammation in the brain. He emphasized, “E-cigarettes, like other cigarettes, seriously threaten human health. For this reason, we as humanity must pay close attention to this issue.”
“DON’T BE FOOLED BY FLAVORS”
Aydın also highlighted the findings of studies conducted on flavored e-cigarettes, warning that these products, made appealing by adding various flavors, should not mislead people. He stated, “Some flavors have numerous negative effects on the heart. Therefore, experts need to seriously investigate this matter.”
Aydın concluded by stating that the fight against smoking is a societal responsibility and emphasized the importance of protecting communities from this poison.
