We are a by Mob for Mob resource to help you quit smoking and vaping for good.
Let’s flip the vape together
Vapes haven’t been around for long, so we don’t know all of the long-term health effects yet. But we do know that vaping changes the way our lungs work and lowers our immunity. It may also increase the risk of heart attack, and affect fertility. Vaping is highly addictive and can change young ones’ lives forever.
It’s never too late to turn things around. We’re here to support you on your quitting journey, every step of the way.
