Electronic cigarettes consist of three elements: a heater (also known as a stick holder), a tobacco stick and a charger. The sticks contain reduced tobacco, glycerin and propylene glycol. Cellulose fibers, guar gum and flavorings may also be added. The stick contains a hollow acetate filter, behind which there is polylactide, which should reduce the heating temperature]. It is almost impossible to prevent the process of harmful substances entering due to the design of the cigarette.</em></p> <p><em>The purpose of the work: to study the effects of harmful substances and decay products of electronic cigarettes on the human body.</em></p> <p><em>Material and methods: analysis of the collected literature, scientific articles and recommendations, study of the chemical composition of electronic systems for smoking.</em></p> <p><em>Results: the study showed that e-cigarettes can cause serious organ disorders and diseases in humans, as well as increase the risk of secondhand smoke.</em></p> <p><em>Conclusion: Smoking conventional and electronic cigarettes negatively affects human health, causing changes in the functioning of all organs and tissues, stimulating the development of severe systemic diseases and increasing the risk of cancer. E-cigarettes also contribute to the development of nicotine addiction. Quitting smoking is the most correct decision to maintain health.</em></p>toxinnicotinepropylene glycolfurfuralglycerinresinsmokingelectronic cigarettesтоксиныникотинпропиленгликольфурфуролглицеринсмолаэлектронные сигареты1.1.Başaran, Rahman et al. “An Overview of iQOS® as a New Heat-Not-Burn Tobacco Product and Its Potential Effects on Human Health and the Environment.” Turkish journal of pharmaceutical sciences vol. 16,3 (2019): 371-374.2.2.Дзюблик Ю.Ф., Ландер Н.М.
