Download or read book Synar amendment implementation quality of state data on reducing youth access to tobacco could be improved written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 57 million Americans currently smoke, putting themselves at risk of serious health problems, such as cancer, heart disease, and high blood pressure. Each year, over 430,000 deaths nationwide are attributable to smoking-related diseases, making tobacco use the leading preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. Total spending by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to prevent tobacco use and dependence is estimated at $900 million for fiscal year 2001. Tobacco use, and the resulting nicotine addiction, begins predominantly in childhood and adolescence. Every day, about 3,000 young people become regular smokers. It is estimated that one-third of these youth will die from smoking-related diseases. In addition to long-term health consequences, these youth are at risk for numerous early consequences, such as a general decrease in physical fitness, early development of artery disease, and a slower rate of lung growth. If children and adolescents can be prevented from using tobacco products, however, they are likely to remain tobacco-free for the rest of their lives. In 1992, the Congress enacted legislation, referred to as the Synar amendment, to reduce the sale and distribution of tobacco products to individuals under the age of 18. HHS' Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is responsible for promulgating regulations and overseeing states' compliance with the Synar requirements. Synar and its regulation require states and territories to have and enforce laws that prohibit tobacco sales to minors, conduct random inspections of tobacco retail or distribution outlets to estimate the level of compliance with Synar requirements, and report the results of these efforts to the Secretary of HHS.

Preventing Youth Access to Tobacco examines the components of a preventive public health intervention directed at reducing the rate of youth tobacco use.

It illustrates the rationale for this intervention and reviews the literature on the topic, pointing to findings that indicate that this kind of comprehensive intervention has been shown to be effective. From the editors: “The amount of human pain and suffering caused by tobacco use is immeasurable. Preventing youth smoking initiation of the most effective way of reducing long-term mortality from heart disease, chronic lung disease, and other tobacco-related disorders. Smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, killing over 400,000 people each year. This is more people than die of AIDS, homicide, suicide, automobile accidents, illegal drug use, and fires combined. Despite these facts, 22.9 of adult Americans and 13.8 of Americans under 18 smoke cigarettes.” This essential book can provide some much-needed answers, showing you: effective ways of reducing the rate of regular smoking among adolescents how to assess a community’s readiness to change how to gauge the effectiveness of tobacco laws directed toward youth how to judge the comprehensiveness of school-based tobacco interventions what factors influence illegal tobacco sales to minors why merchants sell tobacco to kids illegally and what the legal risks are for minors who try to buy tobacco
