Cancer and cardiovascular problems are"almost a certainty" from long-term exposure to vapes, according to a study conducted by the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland .
Speaking on Today With Colm Ó Mongáin, Prof O’Shea called for several flavours currently on the market to be limited in order to restrict the number of chemicals available in vapes. He explained that heating the different flavours to a high temperature can result in a single chemical breaking into 10-20 different compounds.He added:"In any flavoured vape there could be anywhere from half a dozen to 20 different chemicals to make up that commercial flavour.
"I think your risk of disease will be significantly higher and we will see this developing in ten to 15 years' time," he said. A research team at RCSI examined 180 different chemical flavours with artificial intelligence to see what would happen when the flavours were heated.
