the 3 main reasons youth use e-cigarettes
cigarettes were the most common type of tobacco product used among U.S. middle and high school students in 2016. Vape Wholesale Why are youth using these products in the first place?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration examined self-reported reasons for using e-cigarettes among middle and high school students using data from the 2016 National Youth Tobacco Survey. The report found that, among students who used e-cigarettes in 2016, the most common reasons were:

Because a friend or family member used them (39 percent)
The availability of flavors, such as mint, candy, fruit or chocolate (31 percent)
The belief that e-cigarettes are less harmful than other forms of tobacco, such as cigarettes (17.1 percent)
That almost a third of students — 31 percent — reported the availability of flavors as a reason they used e-cigarettes is no surprise considering tobacco companies market flavored products to attract youth and young adults. Research shows that young people are more likely to try flavored e-cigarettes and believe that they are less harmful than tobacco-flavored e-cigarettes.

Other reasons youth reported for using e-cigarettes include that they are easier to get than other tobacco products, cost less than other tobacco products and can be used in areas where other tobacco products, such as cigarettes, are not allowed. Some students reported that they used e-cigarettes to try to quit using other tobacco products, or because famous people on TV or in movies use them.
