| Description |
Tobacco use remains a leading cause of preventable death and disease in the United States and Utah. It increases the risk for chronic lung disease, coronary heart disease, and stroke, as well as cancer of the lungs, larynx, esophagus, mouth, and bladder. Nearly all first use of tobacco occurs before high school graduation. Since the likelihood of lifetime tobacco use is linked to early initiation, long-term reductions in tobacco-related disease and death depend on effective tobacco use prevention among youth. |
