Choosing to smoke or vape has direct impacts on your lungs and overall health. Whether its commercial tobacco, cannabis, or flavoured vape juice, the chemicals involved are poisonous, damage your lungs, and can lead to addiction.

Both smoking and vaping can cause:

• • • • Lung damage and COPD
      • Chronic cough
      • Worsened existing lung disease like asthma
      • Addiction and other mental health problems
      • Cancer of lungs and other organs
      • Low birth weight/premature birth with smoking mothers
      • And risk is even higher if you combine products.
      • Second-hand smoke and vapour carry similar risks.

NB Lung recognizes that cannabis can offer benefits to people who have certain health conditions.

The decision to use cannabis for medical purposes should be a decision made between a healthcare provider and patient. NB Lung encourages you to choose an alternative form of cannabis rather than smoking it, as smoking is the most harmful method of consuming cannabis.

Legal does not mean healthy!
