Biden's last chance to tackle tobacco: Capping nicotine levels in cigarettes
The Biden administration may propose limiting nicotine levels in cigarettes to reduce addiction, with potential plans released soon. This move aims to combat the tobacco industry and decrease smoking-related diseases, which claim over 480,000 American lives yearly. Studies suggest a 95% nicotine level cut may be needed. If implemented, it could prevent millions from getting addicted to smoking and significantly impact public health. The FDA's potential action, supported by health advocates, could take years to finalize but is seen as a crucial step in reducing smoking rates and improving overall well-being in the United States.
