Vapes and e-cigarettes are electronic devices that create an aerosol, or vapor, that users inhale by heating a liquid, usually one that contains nicotine, flavorings, and other substances. Since they don't burn like traditional cigarettes do, which releases tar and other dangerous chemicals, they are frequently marketed as a less dangerous alternative to smoking. Vapes and e-cigarettes are not risk-free, though; prolonged use of the addictive nicotine they contain can cause lung problems and other health problems. These days, they are popular among both adults and young people due to their wide range of flavors, sizes, and shapes. However, this has led to worries about possible addiction and health effects, particularly for non-smokers who are lured to these products.
