For many, it may be the reason that they begin to vape or use e-cigarettes.
What many don’t know is that vape juice can contain a variety of
things that can be toxic, such as flavors, dyes, nicotine, THC (the
ingredient that causes the “high” in marijuana), and other substances. Once
experimentation begins, young people are vulnerable to becoming addicted to
the nicotine found in vaping devices.

Currently, the long-term effects of e-cig use are not known. Take the time to learn the facts and health risks so you can make informed decisions and health choices for your mind, for your body, and for your future!
