Vaping is HEAVILY marketed to us as a SAFER & BETTER alternative to cigarettes... …..but that isn't the truth. These toxic chemicals and metals have been found in vapes and e-cigarettes: • Propylene glycol - a common additive in food; also used to make things like antifreeze, paint solvent, and artificial smoke in fog machines Carcinogens - chemicals known to cause cancer, including acetaldehyde and formaldehyde Volatile organic compounds (VOCs). • Cadmium - a toxic metal found in traditional cigarettes that causes breathing problems and disease. • Acrolein - a herbicide primarily used to kill weeds, can cause irreversible lung damage. • Diacetyl - a chemical linked to a lung disease called bronchiolitis obliterans aka "popcorn lung". • Heavy metals such as nickel, tin, lead Benzene - found in car exhaust. Research shows that vapes and e cigarette usage are linked to: -Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) -High blood pressure -Asthma and respiratory infections -Lung inflammation -Cardiovascular disease and stroke -Cancer. Vapes aren't harmless. They're just rebranded addiction in a shiny package. The damage doesn't wait until you feel it. It's happening silently... cell by cell, breath by breath. Ready to quit? Don't wait for a diagnosis.
