Vaping increases risk of heart failure by almost 20%
Vapers are nearly 20% more likely to develop heart failure than those who never vaped, a new study has revealed.
Experts say the findings add to concerns around the negative health effects of vaping and suggest that e-cigarettes are not a safer alternative to smoking, despite how they are often portrayed.
Heart failure is a condition that causes the organ to become unable to properly pump blood around the body.
More than 64 million people worldwide are currently affected by the debilitating issue, but numbers are understood to be on the rise.
