Did You Know? 🤔 Vaping is often marketed as a safer alternative to smoking, but it still poses significant health risks. Unlike traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes don’t contain tobacco, but they do deliver nicotine and other harmful chemicals. Health Fact: 🧪 Vaping can expose users to harmful substances like nicotine, which is highly addictive and can impair brain development in adolescents. Additionally, e-cigarettes may contain other toxic chemicals, such as formaldehyde and acrolein, which can damage the lungs and lead to respiratory issues. It’s important to be informed about the risks associated with vaping and to consider healthier alternatives for managing nicotine addiction. If you’re looking for support or resources on quitting smoking or vaping, reach out to your healthcare provider or local health center for assistance. Stay informed, stay healthy! 🌟 #HealthFact #VapingRisks #NicotineAwareness #CWWCHC #HealthyChoices

Sternutate (verb): To expel air forcefully from the lungs through the nose and mouth as a reflex, often due to an irritation in the nasal passages. In simple terms, it means to sneeze! Sneezing is your body’s natural defense to clear irritants like dust, pollen, or microbes from the nose. Fun fact: Sneezes can travel at speeds up to 100 mph! 🚀 Stay healthy and cover your nose and mouth when you sternutate to prevent spreading germs. 😷 #HealthTermOfTheWeek #Sternutate #SneezingFacts #CWWCHC #StayHealthy
