Some Say Vaping Is the Healthy Alternative to Smoking, But There Are Risks to Vaping as Well
Cigarettes can be one of the most difficult addictions to quit, as addictive as heroin. So the rise of vaping—inhaling vaporized nicotine through electronic “e-cigarettes”—has been touted as the perfect solution to help smokers quit, or to offer a less toxic alternative to smoking.
However, recent research has begun to look more closely at these allegedly reduced risks of vaping to health and finding them not as benign as they had initially thought.
The Signs of a Heart Attack Are Different For Women, So Why Haven't We Learned to Identify Them?
Historically speaking, a woman’s value resided in the sum of her parts, her womb, her ovaries, the width of her hips, her sex, and her ability to give pleasure. This may be one explanation for why studies into women's health trail decades behind men.
If I were to ask you to list five signs of a heart attack, what would you come up with? If you said cold sweats or nausea, chest pressure or pain, shortness of breath, pain in one or both arms, chest, back or stomach pains, congratulations, the 50 years of research into heart disease has paid off. You correctly identified signs that can help save your father, son, brother, uncle or nephew from a heart attack.
