More teens now use e-cigarettes than smoke tobacco. (Use of and sales to minors of either is illegal.) E-cigarettes are not as toxic as tobacco, but researchers are discovering unintended consequences of these devices. For example, e-cigarettes can be abused to get a stronger hit by manipulating the device. The practice is growing. Another unintended consequence is younger children using e-cigarettes, and turning to real tobacco later, because these devices are only about 50% as satisfying as real tobacco. If teens start using e-cigarettes, they are seven times more likely to be smoking tobacco 6 months later than teens who have not tried either. Nicotine in any form is a highly addictive drug. A new study of some e-cigarette products found the vapor contains known carcinogens and toxic chemicals. Myth debunked: There are seven FDA-approved aids to quit tobacco - e-cigarettes are not one of them. Note: There are several free smoking cessation programs available to those who wish to quit nicotine products. Go to QuitNow.net and NicotineAnonymous.org to learn more.
