A research in Japan has come to the conclusion that e-cigarettes contain 10 times the level of cancer-causing agents compared to the ordinary tobacco cigarettes. Believing that hitting e-cigarettes as a less risky alternative for smoking real cigarettes made e-cigarette such a popular trend. Electronic nicotine products were thought to pose little health risks compared to normal cigarettes that is why most people would go for e-cigarettes instead of tobacco based ones.

Aside from the Japanese Research, the Food and Drug Agency in America reviewed 18 different e-cig cartridges. They found out that all of them had in fact carcinogenic chemicals. This is most probably because there is no existing agency that can look at and provide standards for making e-cig contents.
