A new scientific study has found that e-cigarette mouthpieces can be teeming with fungi, including species linked to lung problems.

Researchers swabbed vapes used daily and discovered they were often colonised by fungi, including Cystobasidium minutum, a species that, in lab tests, caused chronic bronchitis-like symptoms in mice.

That means every puff could be carrying more than just nicotine… you might also be inhaling microscopic hitchhikers that irritate your airways and put extra stress on your lungs.

Vaping was meant to be “cleaner” than smoking, but this research is a clear reminder:
The healthiest choice is to be free from nicotine altogether.

If you’re ready to break free from vaping or smoking, hypnotherapy can help you do it faster and with fewer cravings without relying on willpower alone.

I’ve helped many clients quit for good, and you can be next.
