E-cigarette use by youth continues to rise sparking outcry from the medical community. Thankfully, the FDA has stepped in with regulations to curb what’s now being called-a public health crisis. But is the current plan enough? Will it take banning the products most appealing to teens to reverse the trend. And is that fair to adults who find vaping helpful for smoking cessation? Regardless the stance, I hope we all agree that minors should not use e-cigarette‘s or any tobacco products.
This episode covers:
-The current trend of vaping in youth
-The FDA plan
-E-cigarette industry accountability
-The facts about vaping
-Advice for parents and teens
