• Contain liquid nicotine cartridges
• Nicotine is vaporized then inhaled
• Widely available
• Not fully studied, may lead to unknown health risks
• Nicotine derived from tobacco
• FDA (Food and Drug Administration) wants to

electronic cigarettes
• ENDS (Electronic Nicotine Delivery System) generally emit lower levels of dangerous toxins than combusted cigarettes.
- Can still contain heavy metals, ultrafine particulate, and cancer-causing agents (CDC, 2015)
• Also contain propylene glycol or glycerin and flavorings. Some manufacturers claim that the use of propylene glycol, glycerin, and food flavorings is safe because they meet the FDA definition of “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS). However, GRAS status applies to additives for use in foods, NOT for inhalation. The health effects of inhaling these substances are currently unknown (CDC, 2015).

Monitor the Future, 2015
“One important new finding in 2015 is that very few of the students using electronic vaporizers are using them to help them quit smoking regular cigarettes; only 5%, 7%, and 10% of the users in the three grades indicate this as one of the reasons for their use. More than half say they wanted “to experiment—see what it’s like” and around one-third gave the reason ‘because it tastes good.’”

64.7 percent of 12th graders reported vaporizing “just flavoring” in their last e-cigarette; some didn’t know what they inhaled. E-cigs are unregulated so flavored liquid might actually contain nicotine.
