What do we actually know about vaping and your health? Researchers in Australia combined the world's evidence from 400 research papers. They found conclusive evidence that vapes can cause poisoning, seizures, and burns from faulty devices. Young non-smokers who vape were three times as likely to start smoking tobacco. But for heart disease, cancer and mental health, the evidence is still too thin to judge. Vapes are new and changing fast, so their long-term effects remain largely unknown.
