“E-Cigarettes: A Dangerous Trend: The growing popularity of vaping devices is putting teens’ health at risk.” Choices/Current Health, Mar. 2019, p. 22+. Gale In Context: Opposing Viewpoints, https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/A579995038/OVIC?u=ucinc_main&sid=OVIC&xid=be0c8185. Accessed 21 Oct. 2019.

Summarizing- This article is about the health effects of vaping and smoking. It also tells the resaders about the difference in effect of smoking between adults and teens. It says that vaping is not safer than smoking and is just as dangerouse as smoking ciggarettes or etc. Smoking e- cigarrettes contains more nicotine than the normal ways of smoking and that therefore makes teens get addicted to it much faster and easily.

Assessing- I believe this source is faire and is usefull in getting to know more about the differences in health, vaping and smoking has on a teens and an adults body. It is precise and does help me to evaluate how vaping and smoking affect teens and adults differently. It is alo effective in giving an accute sense of knowledge about the disadvatages it has on our body.

Reflect- This source helps me to know about the main issue of my topic ” The effects” it shows me how things are different for adults and teens and how smoking and vaping is different. However, me having some previous knowledge about this issue does not change the way i think about vaping and smoking and its various kinds of effects of it on our body.

Summarizing- This video tells us about the effect an FDA approved flavour in e- ciggarettes has on the lungs. It may be approved by the FDA but not for inhaling it through e-cigarrettes. This video shows the harms of inhaling the chemicals e-cigarrettes does on the lungs. It say that a specific type of chemical in the food flavour exposes the human bronchiol cell structure and harms our breathing capacity. which causes breathing problems.

Assessing- I believe this source is useful for me in knowing something very specific of my issue. It gives me knowledge about one of the parts of my issues. Also, I think it is reliable as it is not vague and is precise.

Reflect- I think that it is genuine and lets me know one of the parts of my issue about how all this affects someone “physically”. It helps to produce an arguments about how vaping affects the lungs.However, I really do believe that vaping does really affect you in ways you can not imagine.
