“Like other nicotine-containing products, HTP leads to a nicotine-related acute increase in arterial stiffness and cardiovascular stress, similar to combustible cigarettes, which associates these products with an increased cardiovascular risk.”.
Note: E-cigarettes and heated tobacco products like Iqos pose a threat to cardiovascular health and are not safe.
