Researchers find toxic metals in e-cigarette liquids on Sat, 02/11/2017 - 01:49 admin Since their emergence into the marketplace as an alternative to tobacco, health officials have been conflicted over e-cigarettes.

More troubling, perhaps, was the fact that little research had been done on nicotine vapor created by the devices. But researchers have been busy catching up, and a team at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health reports finding high levels of toxic metals in the liquid that creates the aerosol that e-cigarette users inhale when they vape.
