Vaping or smoking e-cigarettes is gaining popularity among teenagers. Far from being the most useful hobby for young people, it turned into a platform for the formation of a smoking culture. According to statistics, many teenagers did not smoke at all before electronic cigarettes..
“Previous years saw an increase in demand for e-cigarettes, so we expected to see a decrease in the number of smokers..
However, the study found that adolescents replaced cigarettes with vaping, and some who did not smoke at all started using e-cigarettes, ”says study author Jessica Barrington-Trimis..
In the United States, smoking is considered one of the leading causes of increased mortality. About half a million Americans die every year due to a bad habit. It was originally thought that e-cigarettes would help people gradually quit nicotine.. It turned out that everything is not so simple.
