The Social Media Smoking Trap: Why Teens Are 5x More Likely to Vape In today's episode we're exploring a groundbreaking study revealing how social media fuels youth smoking and vaping. Researchers tracked nearly 9,400 UK adolescents over seven years and discovered alarming patterns: teens spending seven or more hours daily on social media face five times higher odds of cigarette smoking and even greater risks for vaping. We unpack the dose-response link, the shocking gender disparities, and how targeted digital marketing exploits regulatory loopholes. Discover why platforms have become the tobacco industry's most effective advertising tool, and what researchers are calling for to protect young people from this modern public health crisis.
