And eating chocolate is a gateway to eating feces. Lol.Didn’t the overall sales of cigarettes drop recently, while e-cig sales are going up? It wouldn’t make sense that vaping is a “gateway” when sales are dropping on cigarettes. If sales for BOTH e-cigs and cigarettes were on the rise, I think it would be a different story. BUT that’s not the case. Lots of “if’s”, “but’s” and exaggerated details when it comes to people trying to discredit e-cigs. When are they going to face vaping head-on with facts? Oh, that’s right… never; because there’s no way they can prove that e-cigs cause more harm than cigarettes. Lol.

lead to smoking for teenagers. However, I think parents should be vigilant
and talk openly with their children and let them know that it’s better to abstain from vaping even though it is less than smoking tobacco cigarettes. Because vaping is for those who want to quit smoking and it should stay like
that.

and stress levels rather than mere advertising or flavoring. Moreover, the high start-up cost of ecigs and the easy availability of tobacco cigs are unlikely to attract teens or young adults to ecigs. We all know that ecigs are less toxic and less carcinogenic compared to traditional ones, so even if teen smokers are choosing it, it will actually benefit their health.

I agree. And it would be beneficial to have more similar studies carried out. Thanks @LisThomas:disqus for your comment!

Teens who are curious to try ecigs can go with zero nicotine. But we do not have that option with traditional cigarettes. We are already addicted to smokes by the time we are bored with traditional cigs. The good thing is teens smokers who switched to ecigs are actually reducing the harm done to their body by tobacco cigs. So also, they are saving themselves from becoming lifelong tobacco cigarette smokers.

It is inspiring to see that additional study on teens use of ecigs are carried out. More and more research like this are welcome as it will help us to understand the health impact on our society.
