#113: Why Can Teens Still Get Their Hands On Dessert-Flavored Vape Products?

113

Today's episode is a bit of a bonus. I've been really confused as to why there are still all these fruity, desert-flavored vaping products, vape pens and e-cigarettes on the shelves in the US, when I thought Juul was told to remove theirs the market. So I did some major digging into the backstory of vaping regulations and where things stand today. I actually think this is an important episode for you to hear so you can explain to your teenager how vaping goes the disposable, desert or fruity flavored vapes is even more risky than we thought.
