Arnold Law Firm Advises Against the Cinnamon Challenge

 



(LegalLaw247.com, April 23, 2013 ) Sacramento, CA – Spreading like wildfire throughout the United States, made famous from YouTube videos, teens are challenged to swallow a spoonful of ground cinnamon in 60 seconds without drinking water.

As a result, hospitalizations and poison centers across America have seen a drastic increase in visits and phone calls. The reason; ingesting a large amount of cinnamon can cause choking, throat irritations, breathing trouble, and in some cases the lungs to collapse.

Over the last year the American Association of Poison Control Centers has received an increase from 51 calls in 2011 to a shocking 222 calls in 2012. Additionally, teens that suffer from respiratory conditions and asthma are put at an even greater risk of having trouble breathing or having a shortness of breath.

Our attorney’s advice that teens avoid taking the cinnamon challenge and do not give into peer pressure, for it could result in serious injuries and potentially death.

If you have been injured due to the actions of a negligent individual, our personal injury attorneys in Sacramento believe that the victim may be eligible to receive compensation for their losses and damages including; medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, and loss of wages.
