DSMF Survey Highlights the Presence of Pouches in 15 to 18-Year-Olds Lives

UK's DSM Foundation's survey on 15 to 18-year-olds' substance use reveals nicotine pouches are prevalent among peers, with 46% mentioning them. However, compared to vaping, alcohol, cigarettes, and cannabis, pouches rank lower in actual usage. The study highlights the significance of accurate data on youth habits to address concerns effectively. Despite the attention on pouches, regulating their access to minors and discouraging usage remain crucial. The survey aims to inform rather than sensationalize, emphasizing the need for reliable information for informed decision-making among young individuals.
