E-Cigarettes Are Extremely Harmful
You might be under the impression that smoking an e-cigarette instead of a real one is safer. However, according to a research author for BMJ, “no safe level of smoking exists for cardiovascular disease”. One study done in 2017 proved that smoking just one cigarette a day can lead to heart disease and stroke in the future. E-cigarettes don’t lower these odds. Rather, adding e-cigarettes into your routine can increase them. A lot of states started banning e-cigarettes in 2019 once they discovered a lot of illnesses that were contracted from vaping. E-cigarettes increase the risk of heart attacks and developing coronary artery disease.
Stay Away From Secondhand Smoke
Standing near people who are smoking and inhaling their secondhand smoke can seriously impact your heart health. In a study done by Secondhand Smoke Exposure and Cardiovascular Effects, it’s been found that inhaling secondhand smoke still increases the risk of heart disease by 30%. Try limiting your interaction with smoke in general, whether it’s smoking or being near someone who’s smoking. Secondhand smoke can cause you to inhale over 7,000 chemicals. 70 of which can cause cancer.
