Safer Than Smoking? Vaping Tied to Alarming Rise in COPD Cases
Learn more about a new study that confirms the multitude of health risks associated with e-cigarettes, including COPD and high blood pressure. By Stephanie Edwards

Vaping and COPD
The study, published in Nicotine & Tobacco Research, confirms the link between e-cigarette use and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This counteracts some claims that e-cigarettes are the “safer” option when compared to traditional cigarettes.
It is well-documented that traditional cigarettes carry a host of health risks, including COPD, heart disease, heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. In the U.S., eight out of ten COPD-related deaths can be linked to smoking traditional cigarettes, as reported by the CDC.
Although the risk of developing COPD while smoking traditional cigarettes is higher than vaping-only, researchers found a significant association between e-cigarettes and COPD. They also found that vaping minimally increases your risk for hypertension, as well.
These results align with previous studies that have found vaping can increase your chances of developing asthma, along with a general higher risk for new respiratory disease symptoms
Largest Vaping Study
A study of this scope and scale has not been conducted before on the health effects and risks associated with vaping in adults. For this analysis, medical information was gathered on a diverse group of almost a quarter-million people ranging in age from 30 years to 70 years old.
Out of the people studied, 3,164 reported that they exclusively smoked e-cigarettes, while 8,316 commonly used both e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes. Another 33,778 were traditional-only smokers, and the remaining 203,932 didn’t smoke at all.
The research team followed up on the medical records of these individuals four years after the initial report. They found that there were 23,745 new cases of hypertension, 13,179 cases of type 2 diabetes, 9,801 cases of heart failure, and 7,925 new cases of COPD.
There was no significant correlation between those who only smoked e-cigarettes and an increase in type 2 diabetes or heart failure. But there was a notable increase between e-cigarette smoking and COPD diagnosis that researchers think deserves long-term attention.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
