Description
★★★★★ Many teens have had tobacco education for years so this is a fresh, impacting approach to reiterate the negative effects of the #1 cause of preventable death of adults in the United States!
Smoking is a habit most people soon regret. “Cigarette smoking during childhood and adolescence causes significant health problems among young people, including an increase in the number and severity of respiratory illnesses, decreased physical fitness and potential effects on lung growth and function.” 1
NEWLY UPDATED VAPING INFORMATION!: Now in 2021, there is no question to the dangers of vaping! (68 deaths have been confirmed in 27 states and the District of Columbia as of February, 2020*)
