- According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), youth nicotine pouch use has risen from 1.5% in 2023 to 1.8% in 2024. These statistics highlight the ongoing challenges in reducing nicotine use among youth, despite some progress in decreasing e-cigarette use.
- ZYN nicotine pouches have gained popularity among youth, raising significant health concerns. These smokeless, tobacco-free pouches deliver nicotine through the mouth's lining, making them appealing due to their discreet use and variety of flavors.
- Health Risks Associated with ZYN Nicotine Pouches:
- Addiction: Nicotine is highly addictive, and its use can lead to dependence, especially in adolescents whose brains are still developing.
- While ZYN nicotine pouches may be marketed as a safer alternative to smoking, they still pose significant health risks, particularly for young users. Ongoing education and regulation are essential to mitigate these risks and protect youth health.
Just a small donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal for McMillen Health
