E-cigarette use raises heart attack risk by 53%, especially in former smokers, a new study finds.
A new study in BMC Public Health finds e-cigarette use is associated with a 53% higher risk of heart attacks, particularly among former smokers, who face more than double the risk.
Overall, users had a 1.53 times higher heart attack risk and a 1.05 times higher stroke risk.
The analysis of 12 studies suggests e-cigarettes may not be a safe alternative for quitting smoking, despite being marketed as less harmful.
Researchers urge caution and further study, especially given rising use among former smokers in the UK and globally.
