Currently there are no findings published on the long term health effects on humans of inhaling EVA co-polymers. Results of tests conducted on rodents show the risks associated with 'Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymer emulsion based adhesive' include triggering the cellular proliferation necessary for tumor development.[4]
It should also be duly noted that burning any organic material without sufficient Oxygen increases the production of Carbon Monoxide. So, whether or not the additional added chemicals have any direct impact on long-term health, repeatedly inhaling the fumes of an Oxygen starved ember greatly increases long-term Carbon Monoxide exposure. Many of the symptoms reported by smokers are (coincidentally, or not) known side-effects of Carbon Monoxide exposure.
