Police have warned parents about a dangerous new trend involving vaping that has already left one boy debilitated.<\/p>\n
It is believed the teenage boy vaped a mixture of CBD and THC oil which has been said to cause a variety of nasty side effects.<\/p>\n
Police officers say they have already seized a large quantity of the dull, yellow liquid which is being sold in spot bottles as they warn parents and young people about the risks.<\/p>\n
Teesside Live says the teenager was at home at the time and thankfully was able to get help when he became unwell. <\/p>\n
CBD and THC are both derived from the same cannabis plant.<\/p>\n

However, THC is associated with the high feeling or psychoactive effects, while CBD is more well known for its health benefits.<\/p>\n
A spokeswoman for Durham Constabulary said: \"Officers particularly want to warn any young people who may be offered or use the liquid, especially in remote areas around Barnard Castle and Teesdale.<\/p>\n
\"A large quantity of the dull yellow liquid - being sold in sport bottles and distributed in small, unlabelled bottles has already been seized by police.<\/p>\n
\"Remember, it is illegal to vape if you are under 18.\"<\/p>\n
Anyone who sees or is offered anything that matches the liquids description, call 101 or 999 in an emergency.<\/p>\n
