oirks on twitter, facebook and instragram. as we say good-bye, a live look from our south beach cam showing the pink triangle new 5:00 p.m. have a safe pride weekend, everybody. >> this is the "california spotlight," sponsored by the california department of public health. >> hello, there. today the "california spotlight" shines on an important and concerning new trend among our kids -- the use of flavored tobacco in california. now, you have to be 21 years old to purchase tobacco products. dr. pam ling is here today to give us more insight... hi, dr. ling. >> hi. >> ...more insight and information on an important campaign that the california department of public health has going at the moment, and it's all about flavored tobacco products. so, first off, what are flavored products, and how are they landing in the hands of our children? >> so, whe

chewing tobacco, and the newest products, which are flavored electronic cigarettes and flavored "e-juice." >> e-juice? >> so e-juice is the liquid that contains nicotine that you put inside these e-cigarettes and that gets heated up and inhaled. >> okay, dr. ling, let's talk flavors, because the california department of public health and yourself have told us there are something like 15,500 flavored tobaccos out there. first of all, i didn't even know 15,500 flavors existed in anything. what's going on? >> [ chuckles ] that's right. it is crazy. so, there's strawberry-shortcake flavor, cookies-and-cream flavor, even dragon's blood flavor. >> hang on. dragon's blood? >> well, i think that's the trick to it, is that you're curious, so that is what entices kids because kids have that same curiosity. they don't think, "this is a cigarette." they think, "oh, this is a vapor tasteli, and that's how they get started.

>> and the creation of these flavors, i mean, where did this all come from? >> well, the flavors were originally developed as additives into food. so if you think about how many flavors of candy are out there, there are thousands of flavors available, and the e-cigarette manufacturers put those flavors into these e-juices, but the flavors were approved for eating with food, not for heating up and inhaling into your lungs. >> two very different uses. >> that's right. eating is not the same as breathing a flavor. >> so, how does a vape-pen or an e-cigarette compare to the traditional, old-fashioned cigarette? >> right. so, old-fashioned cigarettes, you know, you light them up, you're burning tobacco and breathing in smoke. the way that you get the nicotine from a vape-pen is not through lighting up a plant and inhaling it like tobacco. so the nicotine is delivered by heating up this liquid, which produces the aerosol that's inhaled into the lungs. so the delivery is a little bit

different, but both products contain nicotine, which is addictive, and that's particularly why we're concerned about it for kids. >> so, let's talk about the specific health risks to teens and adolescents that the california department of public health and doctors like yourself everywhere are concerned about. >> the main concern is around this nicotine exposure because we know that nicotine is similar to a neurotransmitter in the brain, and when you're exposed to it, it changes your brain, and that can happen particularly when your brain's still developing. kids in california know you shouldn't smoke cigarettes, but these new products, they look different. some of them really don't look like a cigarette at all. they look like a pen or they look like an electronic device, a usb device. and then when they come in a flavor, kids don't think about them the same way. and we've also found that kids that start smoking with e-cigarettes are three times more likely to go on to smoke regular cigarettes. >> wow, you know, there's a lot of information here for us. tell us, how can we find out more about this important campaign? >> so, one of the easy ways to

find out me is to weite, wchs flavorshookkids.org. and they've got all the facts there, and it's a real easy way to get up to speed on this quickly. >> flavorshookkids.org. dr. ling, thank you so much for being here and for talking to us about this really important campaign from the california department of public health. really appreciate it. thank you for joining us. we'll see you next time on the "california spotlight." >> the "california spotlight" is sponsored by the california department of public health.
