Hello! Although the e-cigarettes on the market are advertised as nicotine-free products, researchers have found that the products themselves still contain nicotine and other potentially harmful active ingredients. Nicotine can increase inflammatory reactions, oxidative stress ... increase the risk of atherosclerosis, causing heart attacks and strokes later on.
