Vaping and tobacco products are dangerous to an adolescent’s health. Adolescents are uniquely vulnerable to the nicotine in these products, as their developing brains become addicted to nicotine more quickly than adults. In addition, numerous toxicants and carcinogens have been found in combustible cigarettes and e-cigarette solutions. Youth who use e-cigarettes are at high risk of transitioning to traditional cigarettes.
