Q

Esta información sirvió de base para vender cigarillos electrónicos en muchos países como una especie de “reducción de daños” o un tratamiento para las personas que querían dejar de fumar. El gran problema es que no hay suficientes estudios científicos par respaldar tales afirmaciones, y toda la publicidad relacionada con estos productos parece estar más enfocada en ganar nuevos usuarios (especialmente los jóvenes), y práctiamente ignora este posible sesgo terapéutico.

A

This information served as the basis for selling electronic cigarettes in many countries as a kind of “harm reduction” or treatment for people who wanted to quit smoking.

Los psicólogos alertan de un cambio en los hábitos de los jóvenes respecto al alcohol. Los adolescentes se sienten invencibles y hoy hay más ‘atracones’ y menos consumo habitual. Antes, era normal que el joven pasara a tener una tendencia a beber con frecuencia. Ahora son menos los que adquieren el hábito pero no es menos grave para ellos, ya que muchos viven en una eterna atracón.
