One of the latest reasons for the downturn of cigarettes had been the rising popularity of the electronic cigarette (e-cigarette). However, a new study finds electronic, or e-cigarettes, may not be as safe as advertised. In a new study in the medical journal "Chest," found participants who used the electronic cigarettes showed restricted airways and inflammation after only five minutes.
