🚨 What Is Popcorn Lung? The Hidden Threat of Vaping
One of the most alarming dangers of vaping is a condition called bronchiolitis obliterans, more commonly known as popcorn lung. This serious and irreversible lung disease occurs when the tiny airways in the lungs (bronchioles) become inflamed and scarred, making it hard to breathe.
🔴 Symptoms of popcorn lung include:
❌ Chronic coughing
❌ Shortness of breath (even at rest)
❌ Wheezing (even without asthma)
❌ Chest tightness & pain
❌ Extreme fatigue
🔬 What causes it?
The main culprit behind popcorn lung is diacetyl, a toxic chemical once used in microwave popcorn flavoring. Workers in popcorn factories who inhaled this chemical developed severe lung damage—hence the name popcorn lung.
🚬 And here’s the shocking truth: Many vape juices contain diacetyl, exposing vapers to the same deadly risk.
💨 Even if your vape doesn’t have diacetyl, other toxic chemicals can still destroy your lungs!
