According to studies, they contain nicotine and cancerigenic.
The National Institute of Cancerología left to the passage to the promoters the calls electronic cigarettes to them in the country, when warning that not only they do not help to leave the
tobacco, but contain dangerous substances for the health. These stainless steel cigarettes, that work with reloadable lithium
batteries, contain a camera that lodges liquid nicotine cartridges in different concentrations. These
devices do not produce smoke, but a hot vapor that the smoker inhales and is absorbed in the lungs. " This one contains cancerous nicotine and toxics like the nitrosaminas. The single nicotine produces respiratory diseases, cerebrovascular neoplasias and problems cardiovascular and, that can cause the death of users" , it assured the Institute. In agreement with Carlos Vicente Road, director of the Institute, is preoccupation by the increasing publicity that the manufacturers and distributors of these cigarettes are doing in Colombia. " Some usually describe them like a aid for the people who want to stop smoking; others have gotten to suggest, even, that the World-wide Organization of the Health (the WHO) considers a treatment legitimate of substitution of the nicotine, but to the own she has denied it organization.

They show that these devices do not promote the product to stop smoking but to reduce the consumption and that the debate on its use has allowed its commercialization in EE.UU., Europe and Japan.
