The vape revolution
Vaping has quickly become the modern-day cigarette — rising in popularity especially among teens and young adults. It was introduced and marketed as a "less harmful" alternative to smoking, but is that really true?
​
Let’s take a closer look at some of the facts.
38% of youth e-cigarette users vape on 20 or more days each month.
Disposables like Puff Bar contain higher levels of lead, nickel, and chromium than cigarettes — linked to lung and neurological harm.
Daily vape users are more likely to report wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness than non-smokers or even some cigarette users.
Dangers of Vaping
Vaping has become dangerously easy to access in nearly every setting — but it's just as addictive as ever. In a world shaped by short-form content and constant stimulation, vapes have become an instant dopamine trigger, seamlessly embedded into daily routines.
​
See what makes modern vaping so addictive:
01
No Off-Switch
Traditional cigarettes burn out — vapes don’t. You can take a hit whenever, wherever, with no natural stopping point. This makes it easy to vape continuously without realizing how much you're using.
03
Quick Dopamine Fix
Each puff delivers immediate gratification, much like social media likes or notifications. This rapid feedback trains your brain to crave hits constantly — creating a powerful cycle of compulsion.
02
Fits Into Every Routine
Vaping is portable, discreet, and odorless. Whether you're scrolling on your phone, driving, walking to class, or lying in bed — it becomes part of every activity, reinforcing habit loops.
04
Perceived as “Harmless”
Many vapers believe it's safer than cigarettes — and while there may be fewer toxins, the nicotine content is often higher, especially with salt-based systems like JUUL. This false sense of safety fuels overuse.
