INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that nicotine pouches such as Velo cause cancer?
Unclear. The retrieved reviews indicate that nicotine pouches contain fewer harmful constituents than cigarettes and that nicotine itself is not classified as a human carcinogen, but they do not directly establish whether Velo or similar pouches cause cancer. The evidence only partially addresses the claim and leaves long-term cancer risk unsettled.
