Manage episode 350490516 series 2936502
We now have 60 years of studies to show which of the more than 5,000 chemicals inhaled by tobacco smokers can impact their health. But we’re only just beginning to see the damage caused by vaping, the cigarette alternative.

Baptist Health experts discuss the dangers of vaping and what it can do to your lungs.
