A new study on e-cigarette use shows that a significant amount of cancer-causing chemicals are absorbed into the body while vaping.  Researchers at the Desert Research Institute and the University of Nevada analyzed the breath of 12 people before and after vaping to determine how much the concentration of aldehydes in the breath would increase.  The researchers found that the concentration was over 10 times higher after vaping.  They suggest that those cancer-causing chemicals are being absorbed by the lungs.
