The scary problem of vape
From the beginning, vape was marketed as "cigarette substitute" or "smoking cessation product", but it was still harmful. It is true that vapes contain less harmful substances than ordinary cigarettes, but vapes always contain nicotine. Nicotine can make smokers feel euphoric, thus making people dependent and addicted to smoking.
The US CDC believes that vapes may contain harmful and potentially harmful substances, including: nicotine, ultra-fine particles that can be inhaled deep into the lungs, flavorings (such as diacetyl, a chemical associated with serious lung diseases), volatile Sexual organic compounds, carcinogenic chemicals, heavy metals such as nickel/tin and lead. The respiratory system of adolescents is not fully developed, and substances such as nicotine will cause greater harm to the body.
Compared with cigarettes, vapes are often modulated into various "flavors", and are added with various food-derived or non-food-derived flavors and other additives, and even the added ingredients are not clear, which brings more inconveniences. predicted risk. "The oral metabolic pathway and the inhaled metabolic pathway are completely different things. There are no problems with adding some additives to food, but it does not mean that the inhalation pathway is also without problems, and the lungs may not be able to withstand it at all."
Even if vape may have certain harm, the current consensus is that the harm of vape is very light, but this should exclude some problematic vapes, and the harm of problem vape is not mine , its harm depends on e-liquid additives. It is more common that some black-hearted businessmen will add drugs to e-liquid, in order to obtain huge profits. Some time ago, 9 students were sent to Nanjing Medical University one after another. Affiliated Shaw Hospital Emergency Department. After detailed examination, emergency doctors found that these patients may have a lot to do with inhaling some kind of vape. Fortunately, after symptomatic treatment, these students all recovered and were discharged from the hospital the next day, and did not cause serious adverse consequences to their own health.
The reporter learned from the emergency department of the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University that a student of the vape department bought it and shared it with others for a novelty. After admission, the hospital has reported the case to the public security organ. Shao Danbing, chief physician of the Department of Emergency Medicine, Yifu Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University, told reporters that vape, also known as vape alkali delivery system, is a kind of vape smoke liquid that is atomized by an atomizer to deliver nicotine to the respiratory system or other substances. Many people think that vape is less harmful than cigarettes. In fact, it is not necessarily true. The ingredients added to e-liquid are complicated. Some illegal businesses may add some prohibited ingredients to e-liquid.
The most common is the so-called "top vape". Everyone must stay away from this kind of vape. Even if it is covered with the shell of some brands of vape, many people think that these are products from regular companies. However, the facts are often not what they think. hangbooe-liquid is very well-known in China, so it has also become a victim of this. In 2019, some customers used the standard packaging of hangbooe-liquid to order a batch of e-liquid After the liquid, the banned ingredients are added to the e-liquid, and it becomes the so-called "e-liquid on the top" for sale. However, this standard package of e-liquid hangboo is sold to many customers, so there is no way to locate which customer behavior is. , so I hope everyone wake up and stay away from the so-called "top vape" and "top e-liquid".
The so-called top vape or top e-liquid is the addition of tetrahydrocannabinol to the e-liquid, which is actually the cannabis extract THC Tetra Hydro Cannabinol is also an addictive harmful substance that may exist in the vape. Smoking marijuana can affect the function of the central nervous system, causing patients to experience hallucinations, anxiety, depression, mood changes, delusions, mania, confusion and other reactions. Long-term smoking can lead to low immunity and induce mental confusion and suicide. Cannabis is a strictly regulated product in the United Nations Anti-Drug Convention, and its abuse can cause hallucinations and even threaten life.
