Scientists from Israel insist that carcinogens contained in electronic cigarettes may pose a threat to human health. No in-depth studies of such cigarettes have been conducted.

The Israeli Ministry of Health stated that the safety certificates of electronic cigarettes from manufacturers and importers do not inspire confidence, because no in-depth studies have been conducted on the effect of this product on the body. By the way, there are studies that have proven the danger of electronic cigarettes of some brands to health. That is why consumers of this type of cigarettes should know that their production is not regulated and does not have a quality standard.
