It’s true that nangs, or nitrous oxide, have gained popularity among some young people, often due to their euphoric effects when inhaled. However, it’s crucial to highlight the potential risks associated with their use. Inhaling nitrous oxide can lead to serious side effects, including oxygen deprivation, which can result in unconsciousness or even death. Long-term use can also cause neurological damage, vitamin deficiencies (particularly vitamin B12), and issues with coordination and memory.
Education about the risks is essential. Many young people may not fully understand the dangers or the potential for dependence. Engaging in open conversations about these harms and promoting safer alternatives for recreational activities can help foster a healthier understanding of drug use and its consequences.
