Many young people are unaware, but "vaping" is equally or more dangerous than smoking due to the multiple chemical components present in the liquid used to give flavor and scent to the e-cigarettes, according to Dr. Faustino Aguilar Arocha. He stated that this new trend can lead to lung, mouth, and throat cancer due to excessive use of these devices.
The use of e-cigarettes is not safe for children, teenagers, or adults who have taken up this trend as a way to quit smoking. However, many of them are unaware that the damage caused to their health by using e-cigarettes can be just as harmful as smoking conventional cigarettes.
The head of jurisdiction 04 stated that e-cigarettes contain nicotine, along with other harmful substances that lead to addiction and frequent health issues. In most cases, the lungs, mouth, and throat are the affected areas.
"It is important that young people become aware and stop following the trend of using e-cigarettes, which are prohibited and should not be sold. Those who market and distribute them may be committing a crime due to the impact on public health," he warned.
He mentioned that in many cases, it is underage youth who adopt the use of e-cigarettes as a trend without knowing the damages it can cause. Therefore, parents are urged to monitor their children and prevent them from falling into this type of addiction, which can lead to frequent migraines, oral problems, and, most serious of all, lung, throat, or mouth cancer.
