Study links e-cig flavors to fetal impact
A study shows that the flavors of electronic cigarettes, especially vanillin, may affect fetal development when used by pregnant women. Laboratory experiments confirmed that exposure to high concentrations of vanillin causes stem cell death or loss of their ability to develop, which could disrupt normal fetal growth and increase the risk of miscarriage. Researchers cautioned that the laboratory findings might not directly apply to human pregnancy, but physicians advise pregnant women to avoid using electronic cigarettes to prevent potential risks.
