New studies by a group of Harvard scientists found a toxic chemical in 75 % of flavoured electronic cigarettes they tested just recently.

Diacetyl, a chemical which is used as a butter substitute in flavours like Cotton Candy and Cupcake, has been linked to respiratory disease, Bronchiolitis obliterans

Bronchiolitis obliterans is a serious and irreversible condition in which the tiny air sacs in the lungs become scarred.

The symptoms of popcorn lung:

• Cough
• Shortness of breath
• Fevers
• Night sweats
