Mom Warns Parents After 17-Year-Old Daughter Develops ‘Popcorn Lung’ from Secretly Vaping cafemom.com/parenting/teen…

Vaping is harmful in 3 ways: 1.) To the user, as harmful ingredients are not disclosed. 2.) To others, as vape clouds contain cancerous chemicals, heavy metals, and nicotine, which can be inhaled by nearby people. 3.) Through thirdhand aerosol exposure, as the chemical... 1/2

"What is happening to our children and their health and their lungs, which means vaping is causing these dangerous reactions?" @edballs questions Dr Jayesh Bhatt, a consultant in Respiratory Paediatrics at Nottingham Children's Hospital.

Experts Warn About Irreversible 'Popcorn Lung' As Vaping Risks Become Clearer: There’s symptoms everyone should be aware of 😳👀 thatviralfeed.com/popcorn-lung-v…

Do you vape? Maybe our herbal lung and sinus cleanse spray can help…

There have been no safety trials on vaping, the product went straight to market as a safe alternative to smoking tobacco. The result is more and more people, especially young people, admitted to hospital suffering from popcorn lung. Vaping is probably more dangerous than smoking... Of course it is, and it comes in all different flavours and colours.

The Chinese are putting WHAT in the vapes? Is RFK even allowed to say this? Unreal.

There are high schools in America now where kids are saying half of the kids are addicted to these vaping products. We cannot get burned again like we did on opioids.

Also known as vapes, e-cigarettes may seem safe to use, but they are not. Bilal Bangash, MD, of @BayhealthDE, shares more about vaping. ama-assn.org/delivering-car… (via @AmerMedicalAssn)

Are you still vaping?

My statement on the next #MFF ⤵️

3/4 #MFF For the first time ever, we acknowledge that new #tobacco and nicotine products pose health risks comparable to traditional ones. With new market developments and the need to protect future generations, rates should be further assessed.

💥L’armée ISRAÉLIENNE aurait retrouvé 21 barrettes de DROGUE sur le « Handala » navire pour Gaza abritant Emma Fourreau, eurodéputée LFI.

Mia O'Brien, a 23-year-old British law student with a spotless record, made a devastating error by possessing a CBD vape cartridge while traveling in Dubai—a substance legal in the UK but classified as a serious narcotic under the UAE's zero-tolerance drug laws. Influenced by misguided friends who downplayed the risks, she unwittingly carried the item in her luggage, leading to her arrest at the airport and a swift conviction for drug possession. This impulsive oversight, described by her heartbroken mother as a "very stupid mistake," resulted in a life sentence, which in the UAE equates to 25 years of imprisonment, transforming her bright future into a nightmare of isolation in Dubai's central prison amid harsh conditions and emotional turmoil. To fight for Mia's release, her family has launched urgent fundraising campaigns to cover soaring legal fees and enable expert lawyers to file an appeal, challenging the severity of the sentence in Dubai's courts while highlighting her lack of intent and clean background. Simultaneously, they are urging diplomatic intervention from the UK Foreign Office to negotiate with UAE authorities for a potential pardon or prisoner transfer, coupled with public awareness drives to garner international support and pressure for mercy, offering a lifeline in what feels like an insurmountable battle against rigid justice.

MAKARY: VAPING IS THE NEXT OPIOID CRISIS 🚨 “For years, the medical establishment downplayed opioids—until it was too late. Now they’re asleep again on vaping. CDC says 5% of kids use vapes... This is the next epidemic, and we’re ignoring it.” — Dr. @MartyMakary

Do you use a "Vape" "E- Cigarette" or do you know someone that does? This is residue left on the inside of this vehicle's windows. This is what causes "Popcorn lung".

Polnischer Präsident nimmt Drogen vor laufender Kamera: Der polnische Präsident Nawrocki nahm ein Snus-Kissen von einem Helfer bei der UNO und steckte es sich in den Mund. Es handelt sich um eine Droge mit konzentriertem Nikotin, ein Kissen entspricht 5-7 Zigaretten. Es gibt Snus mit Zusatz von narkotischen Substanzen. Wen wundert das noch

While high school student current vaping declined from 2020-2024, daily use among vapers increased from 15% to 29%, and unsuccessful quit attempts increased from 28% to 53%, suggesting youth who vape is hardening. ja.ma/4hG6Qal

Thousands of anonymous pro-tobacco comments poured into an EU consultation on raising cigarette and nicotine taxes — a surge that anti-tobacco campaigners say was engineered by the industry to drown out public health voices. politico.eu/article/eu-tob…

Aggressive marketing of e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches is fueling a new wave of addiction among young people. This is not harm reduction – it’s profit-driven tactics by companies seeking to keep our kids addicted to nicotine. @WHO has released a new position paper on tobacco control and harm reduction. We call on all countries to regulate every nicotine product as strictly as tobacco – including newer products like e-cigarettes – and to expand access to cessation support. Read the full position paper here: who.int/publications/m… #TobaccoExposed

And many who are younger erroneously believe it is safe or at least safer than smoking cigarettes I have had this convo w/ so many under 30 and the vaping is so bad in some middle and high schools bathroom doors must be kept open and cameras used

In November, we bring awareness to the leading cause of cancer deaths in Ontario – lung cancer. Last year, I rose in the House to speak on this important topic, and the health risks that vaping can have on young people. Since then, our government has enacted a ban on vaping in schools and required the existing curriculum to educate students on its dangers.

The Institute has today relaunched the ‘Every Vape is a Hit to your Health’ campaign. This year's campaign includes additional key messages about the health harms of #vaping on brain development, mental health and oral health. ➡️ Learn more: cancer.nsw.gov.au/what-we-do/new…

This lung damage from e-cigarettes is permanent — and entirely preventable. Flavored e-cigarettes, aggressively marketed with candy-sweet names and bright packaging, are proving far more dangerous than their playful image suggests. A chilling new case underscores the threat: an American teenager, who vaped secretly for three years, has been diagnosed with bronchiolitis obliterans—better known as “popcorn lung.” This rare, irreversible disease scars and blocks the lungs’ tiniest airways, condemning patients to lifelong shortness of breath, wheezing, and chronic cough. First identified in microwave-popcorn factory workers exposed to the butter-flavoring chemical diacetyl, the condition is now resurfacing among young vapers exposed to the same and similar compounds when flavorings are heated and inhaled. E-liquids can contain more than 180 different flavor chemicals, most of which have never been tested for safety when aerosolized and breathed deep into the lungs. While many are considered safe to eat, inhaling them bypasses the body’s natural filters, allowing potentially toxic byproducts to reach the delicate lung tissue and bloodstream. This latest case has reignited urgent demands for stricter regulation of flavored vaping products and better education—especially for teenagers who are the primary targets of the industry’s marketing. The message is stark: the sweet clouds that taste like dessert can quietly destroy a young person’s lungs for life.

Important Warning! New research has officially confirmed that vaping is linked to rare and irreversible lung disease. While e-cigarettes have been marketed as a safer alternative to traditional smoking, scientists warn that the chemicals in vape liquids can cause severe lung damage over time. Cases of vaping-related lung injury have been rising globally, with many patients experiencing permanent respiratory issues. Doctors emphacise that even occasional use of e-cigarettes can trigger serious health complications. The latest studies reveal that harmful substances like vitamin E acetate, heavy metals, and synthetic additives in vape products are responsible for triggering inflammation and scarring in the lungs. Unlike traditional smoking, vaping damage can appear suddenly and progress rapidly, often leaving patients with limited treatment options. Health experts are urging governments and communities to educate young adults and teenagers, who are the most frequent users, about these life-threatening risks. Protect your lungs and make informed choices. Awareness and prevention are crucial because once the lung damage occurs, it cannot be reversed. Avoid vaping and stay updated with scientific research to safeguard your long-term health.

Elektronik sigara (vaping) kullanan binlerce kişide EVALI (E-cigarette or Vaping Associated Lung Injury) oluştu! Yıllar önce zararlı yapmayın! Dediğimde nasıl linç edildiğimi hatırlıyorum... Adı: EVALI (E-cigarette or Vaping Associated Lung Injury) ABD’de 2019-2020 arasında 2.800’den fazla kişi hastanelik oldu, çoğu 35 yaş altı, çoğu daha önce hiç sigara içmemişti! CDC ve FDA resmi raporu: “Vaping, nadir görülen ve geri dönüşü olmayan akciğer hasarıyla doğrudan ilişkilendirilmiştir.” Sebebi? Özellikle kaçak THC kartuşlarındaki E-vitamini asetatı + nikotinli likitlerdeki kimyasallar akciğerde yağ birikmesine yol açıyor. Sonuç: Akciğerler adeta “buzlu cam” gibi oluyor, oksijen alamıyor. Yasal nikotinli vape’ler %100 güvenli değil. Uzun vadede KOAH, astım atakları, “popcorn lung” riski de cabası. “Sigaradan daha güvenli” lafı 2010’ların hikayesiydi. 2025’te gerçek bu artık uyanın! Beğenip paylaşın, bir genç daha bu tuzağa düşmesin.

EXCLUSIVE: EU health chief 100% convinced new products as harmful as cigarettes dlvr.it/TPtsPP

Unauthorized e-cigarette products are flooding the market and hooking the next generation of kids on nicotine. I introduced the bipartisan S.T.O.P. Illicit Vaping Act to strengthen DOJ and FDA’s activities to crack down on the unlawful sale of harmful vape products.

🔥 THIS is what vaping can do to your lungs. 🫁 Left: a healthy lung — pink, elastic, built for oxygen exchange. 🫁 Right: a vaper’s lung — irritated, inflamed, scarred by chemical injury. Vaping isn’t “just water vapor.” The aerosol you inhale contains harmful chemicals like diacetyl, formaldehyde, acrolein, heavy metals, and even vitamin E acetate — all of which can irritate and damage lung tissue. These substances can trigger inflammation, airway scarring, and serious respiratory disease. This damage isn’t only theoretical — vaping has been linked to EVALI (e-cigarette or vaping-associated lung injury), a severe lung condition that can cause shortness of breath, chest pain, cough, and often requires ICU care. ⚠️ The scariest part? This harm can happen quickly, even in young, otherwise healthy people — and many early symptoms are ignored: • Shortness of breath • Chest pain • Chronic cough These are warning signs, not normal side effects. 🚫 Vaping does not upgrade your lungs — it damages them. If you vape, this is your sign to stop. If someone you love vapes, share this. Your lungs don’t get upgrades. Only damage — and the risk is real. #MedX #MEDHM @IhabFathiSulima
