Vapes harm health: danger to well-being

Many experts note that even limited use of vapes leads to a number of serious consequences. Users may experience chronic cough, shortness of breath, and inflammatory processes in the lungs. Flavorings are particularly dangerous, capable of causing 'popcorn lung,' a condition in which alveoli rupture due to chemical exposure. Within just five minutes after starting to vape, increased blood pressure and heart rate are observed. In addition to physical symptoms—such as anxiety, depression, and sleep problems—long-term risks include DNA damage and cancer development. Experts recommend protecting health from an early age by avoiding the use of electronic cigarettes.
