Are nicotine pouches healthier than vaping or smoking?

I've seen a lot of people, especially those in their teens or 20s, using pouches, and many of you are asking about it for yourselves and your loved ones.

So I asked Doctor Mike Varshavski, board-certified family medicine doctor and the #1 medical doctor online, to share the truth.

Doctor Mike says, yes, smoking has more risks than pouches, but smoking has barriers, vaping has even fewer, and pouches have almost none - no smell, no stigma, no friction.

The “frictionless” access and convenience of nicotine pouches make them more dangerous - especially for teens because it’s easy to hide from their parents.

This conversation on The Mel Robbins Podcast with Doctor Mike was so eye opening to me in so many ways. He will help you understand the truth about vaping, nicotine, and what’s actually putting your teens at risk.
