Description

Nayeli Vázquez-López, Ramcés Falfán-Valencia, and Gloria Pérez-Rubio review what flavors in e-cigarettes do to health. Their 2026 paper gathers studies in animals and in people. Flavors drive much of the draw of vaping, above all for the young, so their risks matter for policy.

The team searched a major database and kept only first-hand studies that met their aims, leaving out cell-only work and work tied to the tobacco trade. Fruit, mint, and sweet flavors raised nicotine use and liking in animals, and tracked with swelling, cell harm, and heart changes. In people they were linked to cough and worse lung scores, plus DNA harm in mouth cells. Brain reward paths lit up as well.
