Nearly 11 Million US Adults Are Using E-Cigarettes A new study says roughly 10.8 million U.S. adults are currently using e-cigarettes. The study adds more than half of them are under 35 years old, and one in three users are vaping daily. Research shows that 5.9% of men reported current e-cigarette use compared with 3.7% of women. The study goes on to say that people with chronic medical problems are also more likely to vape than individuals <br />without health issues. Overall, 1.4 percent of people in the study who never smoked traditional cigarettes used e-cigarettes. E-cigarettes containing nicotine can be addictive like traditional cigarettes. Even without nicotine, research says ingredients in e-liquids could be linked to serious breathing problems.
