href=\"https:\/\/www.cancerresearchuk.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cancer Research UK<\/a>, the use of high-strength nicotine vapes has significantly increased over the past three years.<\/p>\n<p>In June 2021, only 6.6% of vape users opted for e-cigarettes close to the legal nicotine limit of 20mg\/ml advised by the UK government and the European Union. By January 2024, this figure had rocketed to 32.5%.<\/p>\n<p>Alarmingly, some products on the market contain a staggering 50mg\/ml or more \u2013 more than double the legal limit that experts warn can rapidly lead to \u00a0health risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"formatted-text  formatted-text--padding-remove-top\">\n\t<div class=\"container container--large\">\n\t\t<h2>Rise among young adults<\/h2>\n<p>The demographic showing the largest uptake is the 18-24 age group, where usage jumped from 3.9% to an astonishing 53.1% in the same period. <\/p>\n<p>The study, based on a survey of 7,314 adults, suggests young adults are increasingly turning to higher-strength nicotine solutions when vaping.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"formatted-text  formatted-text--padding-remove-top\">\n\t<div class=\"container container--large\">\n\t\t<h2>Implications for taxation <\/h2>\n<p>The findings come amid governmental plans to introduce a tax on vapes based on nicotine strength, a move cautioned against by researchers. Dr. Sarah Jackson, the lead author, asserts that higher nicotine vapes play a crucial role as one of the methods of quitting smoking. <\/p>\n<p>She further states that taxing higher strength nicotine vapes could make them less accessible, potentially driving individuals to lower-strength options and hindering quit-smoking efforts using vapes. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"formatted-text  formatted-text--padding-remove-top\">\n\t<div class=\"container container--large\">\n\t\t<h2>Comment from Allen Carr&#8217;s Easyway<\/h2>\n<p>At Allen Carr&#8217;s Easyway, every year we see thousands of smokers and thousands of vapers who we help to freedom with our drug free one day seminar. The increasing numbers of people addicted to only vaping over the last ten years is of significant concern.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve been warning for years that young people will get drawn into nicotine addiction as a result of lack of regulation and it\u2019s quite predictable that vapers will increase the amount and strength of nicotine they consume as a result of addiction. That\u2019s simply how addiction works \u2013 levels of the drug do not reduce \u2013 the addiction gets progressively worse.<\/p>\n<p>Vaping is often thought of as less harmful than smoking but young people, due to marketing and mixed messaging, often think it is harmless yet there are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/teen-vaping\/short-and-long-term-side-effects\/#3\">mental and physical effects of vaping<\/a> which anyone considering vaping needs to be aware of.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/articles\/nicotine-addiction-vaping\/\">Nicotine is highly addictive<\/a> and studies show that vaping affects young people&#8217;s brain and lung development in devastating ways.<\/p>\n<p>Vaping firms are clearly trying to manipulate the nicotine levels in the belief that it will deepen their customers addiction. The fact is that nicotine is highly addictive in any dose and should be avoided. Whatever strength nicotine someone is addicted to \u2013 Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway can set them free with ease.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of policy and taxation more needs to be done to educate young people that vaping is not harmless as well as regulating access to all vapes, regulating the way they are marketed and helping all smokers and vapers that have fallen into the nicotine trap to find freedom. Taxation policy can help reduce vaping levels amongst youngsters and adults alike.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/easyway-stop-vaping\/\">Allen Carr&#8217;s Easyway to quit vaping <\/a> provides a proven , effective, easy solution to getting free from cigarettes without the need to switch to vaping and remaining a nicotine
