Vaping just once ‘increases your risk of cancer’, shock new findings reveal

VAPING just once increases your risk of cancer and other disease, a new study has revealed.

The shocking research found just how quickly vaping can affect the cells of health nonsmokers.

Just a single 30-minute vaping session can increase cellular oxidative stress.

This happens when there is an imbalance between free radicals – molecules that cause damage to cells – and antioxidants – which fight free radicals.

Dr. Holly Middlekauff, a professor of cardiology and physiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, said: “Over time, this imbalance can play a significant role in causing certain illnesses, including cardiovascular, pulmonary and neurological diseases, as well as cancer.”

“We were surprised by the gravity of the effect that one vaping session can have on healthy young people.

“This brief vaping session was not dissimilar to what they may experience at a party, yet the effects were dramatic.”

The scientists used 32 men and women, ranging in ages from 21 to 33.

They were divided into three groups – 11 nonsmokers, nine regular tobacco cigarette smokers and 12 regular e-cigarette smokers.

The experts collected immune cells from each individual before and after a half-hour vaping session to measure and compare changes in oxidative stress among the groups.

‘CONCERNING’

The researchers did the same thing in a control session where the participants spent 30 minutes “sham-vaping,” or puffing on an empty straw.

They found that in nonsmokers, oxidative stress levels were two to four times higher after the vaping session than before.

Dr Middlekauf said: “While there’s a perception that e-cigarettes are safer than tobacco cigarettes, these findings show clearly and definitively that there is no safe level of vaping.

“The results are clear, unambiguous and concerning.”

Vaping is the process of smoking e-cigarettes, allowing a person to inhale nicotine without other harmful substances in tobacco.

The term is used as e-cigarettes do not produce smoke – instead releasing a vapour. The vapour is produced from a material such as an e-liquid.

While it does have benefits when compared to smoking, it is increasingly being found the vaping also does significant damage.

It comes after a recent study found vapers are 19 per cent more likely to suffer from asthma.

The study also showed that vapers with asthma beforehand had increased risk of a asthma attack by 24 per cent.

The World Health Organisation recommended earlier this year that vaping be outlawed in the UK.

The Government is undertaking it’s own review into vaping.
