Heart Institute Dean cautions on VIB risks for youth
The Dean of the Heart Institute, Dr. Mohamed Abdel Hady, warned about the spread of electronic cigarette "vape" smoking among children and young people, especially in ages starting from 9 and 11 years old. He explained that using "vape" leads to an increase in nicotine levels in the body, which causes a rapid heartbeat and high blood pressure, and raises the risks of acute heart attacks and other diseases. The chemical compounds produced by heating also affect the respiratory system and increase the likelihood of cancerous tumors, with heavy metals like lead and chromium depositing in cells over the long term. He warned of the quick addiction caused by high nicotine amounts, emphasizing that some countries have already begun criminalizing and banning its use. He also stressed the importance of family supervision and raising awareness among young people about the health risks of these products.
