    This holiday season, join me in raising awareness about the harms of youth e-cigarette use. Nicotine exposure during adolescence and young adulthood can cause addiction and harm the developing brain. Know the risks: https://e-cigarettes.surgeongeneral.gov

        As you are well aware Caffeine is addictive & causes harm to developing brain 16oz of Cola has more Caffeine then the recommended amount for Teens per the American Pediatricians Association. For children under 12 there is no safe threshold. When can we expect a ban on Caffeine?

        Sugar also, since it is the leading cause of obesity and leads to diabetes

        I started smoking at 18 & I am 54 now. I have a BA in Philosophy & have worked many years as a translator. I also graduated from the top university in Taiwan & was second in my class. But now you have me concerned. I am going to see a neurologist to see how damage my brain is...

        Please let us know what the Neurologist says! I’m 55 and don’t think that my brain is damaged, but maybe I should get checked out also 🤣🤣🤣.

        Your reasoning for Vaping Ban and T21 is to prevent another generation addicted to Nicotine. How about the youth Alcohol epidemic? Alcohol destroys families, brings constant death and destruction to innocent lives. HHS, USSG, Media, & Politicians nothing but, silence. Why?

        "Being influenced by social media, peers, advertising, and to use drugs is due in part by this portion of the brain that's fully developed in puberty — thus making the adolescent drive strong." MAYBE KIDS NEED TO BE BANNED FROM SOCIAL MEDIA & PEERS. #WeVapeWeVote #NoProhibition

        Please compare health hazards & harmful ingredients of cigarettes with those of e-cig ENDS. And look at nicotine strength used by kids. It's up to 20x higher than flavors sold in vape shops. Juul is 3x the legal limit of the EU, UK, Israel, etc, with no youth crisis. #WeAreAware

        How about you join me in raising awareness about the harms of combustible cigarettes and how vaping is 95% safer than smoking. No doubt you already know this but that MSA blood money is more important to you than saving lives!!!😡

        Omg, you would think we would get the truth from the surgeon general of the US. I am a boomer, half the world started smoking in adolescence so if there were adverse effects we would already know. Flavored nicotine e-liquid vaping is 》95% less harmful and that is fact.
