Flavored tobacco products are a leading factor in youth initiation, with social media amplifying the trend. Our new study explores these patterns and the need for effective public health strategies. Let’s work together to protect youth! Read more: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39348776/
Flavored combustible tobacco product initiation in two longitudinal youth cohorts in the US Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study: 2013-2016 and 2016-2019 - PubMed
Frequent social media use was associated with flavored CTP initiation among youth who used CTPs. Youth who had ever vaped and Black youth were less likely to initiate with flavored CTPs.
