That's why it's called popcorn lung.

So some early vape liquids contained diacetyl, though most companies have removed it, but not all.

So the risk isn't widespread, but it's not zero either.

Orville Redenbacher.

And you mentioned metal lung, which that one's not a formal diagnosis, but researchers have found the metals from coils in vape aerosols.

So the bottom line is these clouds aren't harmless for the person vaping or the people nearby or the people who come through after, frankly.

And studies show links between vape exposure and asthma, cognitive deficits in children, and even a sudden infant death syndrome or SIDS when exposure happens indoors around infants.

But even that's tough.

I mean, washing, vacuuming, even replacing your carpets doesn't always get rid of the residue.

Not really.

OK, that's not exactly how it works.

Cigarettes are still really bad.

Vaping just exposes you to different harms.

And the thing is, however you inhale it, nicotine does give you a temporary feeling of relief.

There's this very small window where nicotine can lower stress, give you a focus boost, and a quick dopamine hit.

But the crash from nicotine comes really fast, which makes you want to take another drag or another hit.

And that cycle actually increases stress overall.

So the thing people think is calming them is making their anxiety worse.

It's brutal.

All right.
