While the number of electronic cigarette users is gradually increasing in Europe and the USA, striking results were obtained in a study conducted among expectant mothers.
A study conducted in the USA revealed that expectant mothers who use mint and menthol flavored electronic cigarette liquids have a 2-fold higher risk of miscarriage. It showed that they were 227 percent more likely to experience infant death in the womb compared to other flavors. The authors of the study emphasize that the chemicals used to flavor e-cigarettes can cause inflammation in the body and damage cells.
