Vaping is now the biggest threat.
It’s time to get smart. Get the facts and reACT.
Did you know:
• 99% of vapes contain nicotine
• 100*% of JUULs contain nicotine
• 1 JUUL pod = 20 cigarettes/1 pack worth of nicotine
It’s an aerosol NOT harmless water vapor.
Get this: vaping is NOT water vapor (yeah, the ads forgot to mention that). It’s actually an aerosol you’re inhaling. With a cluster of dangerous particles and chemicals, like:
• Nicotine: which is highly-addictive, AND it changes your brain chemistry
• Ultrafine Particles: which can be inhaled deep into your lungs)
• Flavoring (chemicals): like diacetyl, a chemical linked to a serious lung disease
• Volatile Organic Compounds
• Cancer-Causing Chemicals
• Heavy Metals: like nickel, tin and lead
Plus, there’s no way to know for sure what’s in them—because they aren’t regulated. For example, some vape products marketed as “0% nicotine” have been found to contain nicotine in tests.
Vaping is still fairly new, so the exact dangers—short-and long-term health effects—aren’t yet known. You’ve seen the news about hundreds of people with serious illnesses from vaping. Some have already died.
Our reACTion? We’re not gonna be the “lab rats” for the Vaping Industry. Nope!
