Healthy Children Radio: Tobacco Prevention (Audio)

Article Body

Pediatrician Jonathan Winickoff, MD, FAAP, comes on the Healthy Children Radio show to discuss Major League Baseball's new labor deal that will limit the use of smokeless tobacco by players. He will also discuss the myths of hookah smoking. The fruity aroma of hookah smoke naturally brings a false sense of security to users, particularly teens. However, studies show that hookah smoke poses many dangers.
