Vaping is not as harmful as cigarettes

on paper, but because the odor is not as

offensive, it's easier to hide. You

could do it much quicker and get a

bigger dose because it feels like it's

not as harmful. Many more people can get

hooked on it.

>> All my friends that vape never smoked.

>> That's the issue of it. It gets people

who maybe would have been turned off by

smoking to try.

And the chemicals found inside are

really rewarding to the brain, nicotine

being a

prime example of it. And the more

dangerous part of it is with kids

who have a developing frontal lobe,

meaning that the part of their brain

that is responsible for complex

decision-making is not yet fully formed.

So, they're incredibly susceptible to

anything that can build a tolerance, a

dependence, an addiction to. And it

could change the chemistry of their

brain moving forward. So, we don't want

to make it easier for them to start

smoking. Vaping should be used as a

tool, as a way of getting you off of

cigarettes, not as a way of introducing

you to cigarettes or nicotine at all.
