- Abstract
Tobacco smoke is the leading preventable cause of death worldwide, and smoking has become a less desirable habit in many social segments. Therefore, during the last decade, the tobacco industry has developed some alternatives - ENDS and HNBT products, in order to offer a less harmful option for consumers. E-cigarette manufacturers are referred to the GRAS declaration which refers exclusively to ingestion, while the inhalation of the aerosol itself, which occurs in both of these products, is harmful. E-cigarettes create an aerosol by heating e-liquid, and HNBT devices are based on heating the coated tobacco leaves thus producing harmful compounds although at considerably lower concentrations than conventional cigarettes.
