Good morning my friends . . .
I hope you have a wonderful weekend . . .
So, the question I have today is this . . . why are so many people "vaping" these days???
Well . . . let's take this week to better understand . . .
Now . . . the street names for "vapes" are . . . E-cigs, e-hookahs, mods, vape pens, vapes, tank systems and Juuls or Juuling.
And the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) says . . .
The reason people "vape" is due to E-cigarette MARKETING and ADVERTISING the availability of appealing flavors, social influences . . . and the effects of nicotine . . .
Which ALL plays a role in why our youth start and/or continue to "vape".
And that "vaping" . . . is the act of "inhaling" an aerosol produced by an "electronic device" called an e-cigarette . . . or vape pen.
Which "heats" a liquid containing NICOTINE, flavorings and other CHEMICALS into a vapor that is inhaled into the lungs . . .
So . . . in essence . . . it's a way to continue consuming NICOTINE "without" burning the tobacco.
Alrighty then . . .
Now . . . the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) says . . . "vaping" can be harmful to the lungs.
The American Cancer Society says . . . no young person should start using any tobacco product including e-cigarettes.
The American Lung Association says . . . e-cigarettes contain "chemicals" that can cause "irreversible" lung damage and disease!
And even though . . . the FDA states . . . "vaping" can be harmful to the lungs . . .
They've STILL authorized and approved some "vaping" products . . .
So, what wrong with this picture PEOPLE???
Are they "TRYING" to kill us???
You see . . . the FDA's Premarket Tobacco Product Application . . . reviews these new tobacco products to see what is "suitable" for the market . . . and they've already approved 23 new tobacco products.
So, to make up for this (in my opinion . . . BAD decision) approval to the market . . . they "require" consumers to be at least 21 years of age to buy "vape products" . . . due to these products containing "HIGH" levels of "NICOTINE" . . . which is a "HIGHLY ADDICTIVE DRUG"!!!
AND. . . that's OKAY . . . right???
Because the person is over 21 . . . and has all the LOGIC and WISDOM in the world and makes such good choice these days . . . right?!?!?
So, how many kids are doing this to their body's you ask???
Well . . . statistics show . . . it's in "epidemic" proportions with nearly 30% of high school students using an e-cigarette in 2024 . . . and 12% reported using an e-cigarette daily.
So, tomorrow . . . let's continue
