BACKSTORY: An electronic cigarette or e-cigarette^{[note 1]} is a handheld electronic device that simulates the experience of smoking a cigarette. It works by heating a liquid which generates an aerosol, or “vapor”, that is inhaled by the user.^[2] Using e-cigarettes is commonly referred to as vaping.^[7] The liquid in the e-cigarette, called e-liquid,^[8] or e-juice, is usually made of nicotine, propylene glycol, glycerine, and flavorings.^[9] Not all e-liquids contain nicotine.^[10]

The health risks of e-cigarettes are uncertain.^[11]^[6]^[12] They are likely safer than tobacco cigarettes but are of unclear effect in relation to other methods of stopping smoking.^[13]^[14]^[15]^[16]^[17] Their long-term health effects are not known.^[18]^[19]^[20]^[21]^[22] They may help some smokers quit.^[9]^[23] When used by non-smokers, e-cigarettes can lead to nicotine addiction, and there is concern that children could start smoking after using e-cigarettes.^[24]^[13] So far, no serious adverse effects have been reported in trials.^[9] Less serious adverse effects include throat and mouth irritation, vomiting, nausea, and coughing.^[25]

The majority of toxic chemicals found in tobacco smoke are absent in e-cigarette aerosol.^[26]^[27] Those present are mostly below 1% of the corresponding levels in tobacco smoke.^[28]^[29] The aerosol can contain toxicants and traces of heavy metals at levels permissible in inhalation medicines,^[30]and potentially harmful chemicals not found in tobacco smoke at concentrations permissible by workplace safety standards.^[28] However, chemical concentrations may exceed the stricter public safety limits.^[25] (SOURCE: Wikipedia)
