Why Teens Just Can't Quit Nicotine

A few years ago, vaping was at the top of every parent’s list of worries — including Sanjay’s. But in just a few short years, the landscape has shifted again. Teen vaping rates have dropped, but new nicotine products have quickly taken their place. Dr. Pamela Ling, a professor at University of California San Francisco who has spent her career studying the tobacco industry’s tactics, joins Dr. Sanjay Gupta to talk about why nicotine remains such a moving target — and how parents can help their kids stay ahead of it. We have updated this episode after Phillip Morris International, the maker of ZYN, provided additional information regarding its product.
