The Goal
Here at Servicios, we take health very seriously, which is why we've launched our #EscapetheVape initiative encouraging our Colorado youth to quit vaping--or better yet, to not even start in the first place!
Despite what you've heard, vaping actually does have a TON of negative health consequences. Vape manufacturers purposely give their products cool names and yummy flavors that make them appealing to kids. All they want is to get YOU hooked so they can get your money--so don't let them!
Join us and #EscapetheVape! Find more info and resources below.
DID YOU KNOW?
Nicotine is highly addictive and can harm brain development, which continues until age 25. Nicotine can also create memory problems, disrupt attention and learning, and increase depression!
E-cigarette aerosols can contain ultrafine particles and cancer-causing chemicals.
Juul and other e-cigarettes deliver massive doses of nicotine, putting users at greater risk of addiction. Each Juul pod (cartridge of nicotine) contains as much nicotine as a pack of 20 cigarettes!
Inhaling e-cigarette aerosols leads to impaired functioning of the lining of blood vessels and can lead to heart disease.
Nicotine use can increase stress levels. Current e-cigarette users have double the odds of also having a diagnosis of depression compared to those who have never vaped!
SO WHAT CAN I DO?
