More than a decade ago, electronic cigarettes (vapes) began to be marketed in Malaysia with sellers claiming that they were safer than smoking cigarettes. Vaping is said to help smokers quit and does not pose a risk of cancer. But the latest study from researchers in Australia now says that vaping now poses a risk of cancer.The study, which reviewed medical literature, case reports, animal studies and biomarker data, found that vaping is almost certainly carcinogenic. Among the evidence found is that cell DNA can be damaged by chemicals, flavors, and metals in vaping. Meanwhile, oral and respiratory tissues show inflammation and damage that can potentially increase the risk of cancer.However, researchers emphasize that the real risk has not yet been determined. Longer-term studies like those conducted on tobacco cigarettes are needed to determine the true level of risk.In Malaysia, the sale of vaping will be completely banned by the middle of this year or the end of this year at the latest. It is not because of the risk of cancer or health but because of the recent addition of vaping with dangerous drugs. Tobacco products can no longer be sold openly.The research paper was published in the journal Carcinogenesis.
