Actually enough researches about influence of an electronic cigarette on an organism were not conducted today therefore many worry concerning whether harmfully to smoke vayp or not.
It is worth noticing that many give preference to electronic hookahs, wishing to cope with an addiction. Possibly it thanks to the fact that everyone can control amount of the used ingredients in liquids, gradually reducing amount of nicotine. Thanks to it the person will be able to get rid of addictions.
Whether it is harmful vayp?
The main harm of usual cigarettes consists in tobacco combustion process, but in electronic cigarettes there is no it, and steam is emitted. It also forces many to believe that it vayp does not do harm to an organism. Let's consider composition of smoking liquids, so there enters: nicotine, propylene glycol, glycerin, water and additives for aromatization. The second and third ingredients are necessary to dissolve fragrances and to provoke production of steam.
Speaking about what it is harmful vayp, it is worth paying first of all attention to nicotine which enters also usual cigarettes. Nicotine is the narcotic substance possessing strong neurotropny action. This substance is dangerous to an organism first of all that it negatively affects a condition of heart and vessels. Finding out whether it is harmful vayp to health, it is necessary to mention that nicotine – drug which at the repeated use provokes dependence at the physical and psychological level. It also sets thinking of expediency of use of an electronic cigarette. Besides there are liquids in which concentration of nicotine rather high that as a result can lead to poisoning.
Many people smoke vayp rather often, thinking that it is safe, but long intake of nicotine in an organism can provoke emergence of a number of negative consequences. In that case there can be a hyperglycemia, an arterial hypertension, atherosclerosis, tachycardia, arrhythmia and other problems with heart and vessels.
Also the topic is hot – whether it is harmful vayp without nicotine as at once all negative properties considered above disappear. As it was already told various aromatic additives which are not regulated by standards of supervision in any way are a part of liquid for an electronic hookah, so, in structure there can be carcinogens and other hazardous substances.
One more component is glycerin – triatomic alcohol with sweetish taste. It is actively used in the food industry, for increase in viscosity of many products. Separately this product has the minimum toxicity. At the same time in some situations glycerin is capable to irritate airways that can lead to formation of an allergy. As a small amount of glycerin is a part of liquids for smoking, it will hardly be able to do much harm to an organism.
The following substance which can raise doubts concerning advantage of a vayp – propylene glycol. It represents colourless liquid with viscous consistence. It is used in production of medicine and in the food industry therefore it is possible to claim that propylene glycol does not do harm to an organism, but only if not to abuse it. In high concentrations this substance oppresses the central nervous system and also can worsen a condition of kidneys.
