This article explains why - Darren https://www.thewhitehatter.ca//the-spector-of-dopamine-add

We have seen an increase in vaping amongst youth over the past several years. In this Thinkable Thursday, we will be speaking with Clayton Cranford who travels the US speaking to youth and their parents about the topic of vaping and discussing what it is, and what the good academic peer-reviewed research is telling us about some the medical concerns surrounding vaping. This is a topic all parents and teens should familiarize themselves with. https://youtu.be/krg8A2r0clg
