The current state of vape safety investigations

There are also many hidden dangers in the issue of underage smoking. Fruits, candies, drinks, and other flavors introduced by vape manufacturers are deeply loved by young people and sell well, and the bitterness brought by traditional tobacco is no matter at any age. The temptation of non-smokers in this segment will be stronger, not to mention the sweet taste is even more attractive to minors.

From the research, it can be clearly found that the metabolism of nicotine compounds in the body is very fast, and nearly 90% of them can be excreted in 72 hours. In 3 months, you can basically get rid of the withdrawal reaction caused by nicotine addiction, but why is it so difficult to quit smoking? In addition to the addiction caused by nicotine's paralyzing effect on the brain nerve center and the pleasure caused by the pathological secretion of dopamine, the habit formation is even more important.

In the survey of more than 500 smoking cessation patients, it was found that the desire to smoke is very related to specific emotions, occasions, and life events. Because the brain has already formed a smoking habit in these situations, specific signals will be conveyed, resulting in the ex-smokers who have already gotten rid of nicotine. Suspension reaction, but very prone to relapse. The vape without nicotine added on the market cannot be included in the ranks of tobacco due to lack of control because it does not contain nicotine (United States). Although it provides an effective way for quitters to quit smoking, it has the potential danger of habit formation for teenagers and non-nicotine addicts. Hongying Dai and Jianqiang Hao found through social surveys that in the United States, vape is not banned, and flavored vape is very popular in the market.

They investigated flavors of vape use among adolescents and their relationship to smoking. Logistic regression models were used to assess whether flavored vape use was associated with intention to initiate smoking among youth who had never smoked and to quit intention among youth who were current smokers, as well as awareness of tobacco harm among all respondents. The conclusions suggest that the use of flavored vapes increases the risk of smoking among young people, especially the convenience of disposable vapes, which are popular among young people because of their low cost and portability. Comprehensive tobacco control and prevention strategies targeting flavored vape products are urgently needed to reduce tobacco use among young people.

However, because vape products have repeatedly reported negative news in foreign countries, although the main reason is that some users ignore the product description and add THC to the e-liquid pod in the rechargeable vape without authorization, a drug that can cause severe lung edema of cannabinoids. Therefore, my country's rules and regulations on vape have issued a number of vape-related documents since 2018, and on November 1, 2020, the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration and the State Administration for Market Regulation issued "About Further Protection of Minors from Vape Notice of Infringement states that from the date of publication of the Notice, vape production and sales companies or individuals are urged to close vape Internet sales websites or clients in a timely manner; e-commerce platforms are urged to close vape stores in a timely manner and remove vape products from shelves in a timely manner; Urge vape production and sales companies or individuals to withdraw vape advertisements published through the Internet.

It is indeed a wise choice. However, Li Zhuo said in "Research on Future Development Strategy Innovation of the Tobacco Industry": With the continuous in-depth reform of my country's economic system, the tobacco industry is facing a severe development situation, as well as the future development strategy choice of development and innovation. The development pressure is huge and the cigarette consumption market is becoming more and more complex. The consumption level of traditional cigarettes is slowly decreasing due to taxation and the rationalization of people's consumption for health. Under the premise of keeping the monopoly system unchanged, new smoking methods should also be developed as soon as possible. This is also part of the current research direction of major tobacco companies.

my country has made significant progress in the issue of minor smoking, but the risk of flavored vape has been improved compared with many carcinogens in traditional tobacco, but the safety inspection of aerosol and flavor substances is not consistent with the analysis are for further study.
