By Jonathan Montpetit m ont real the Road from those nervous initial puffs of a cigarette to full fledged addiction is a lot Shorter for teenagers than previously thought Montreal based researchers say. Or. Jennifer Oloughlin a professor in Mcgill University yes department of epidemiology Bio statistics and occupational health said signs of physical addiction can occur As soon As five months after a first puff. For the past six years Oloughlin has been leading a study of 1,293 students from 10 Montreal area High schools in an attempt to better understand smoking patterns among teens. Our work clearly shows that kids Are reporting symptoms of nicotine addiction very very Early after Onset Oloughlin said. I think this paper really challenges the Way people have been thinking about the development of nicotine dependence. The study to be published today in the Canadian medical association journal suggests that signs of nicotine dependence can develop Well before a teenager smokes cigarettes daily or even weekly. Young people their parents and health professionals must be made aware that symptoms of nicotine dependence can Manifest Long before regular smoking the study reads. Once cravings Are experienced the likelihood of progression to daily use and tobacco dependence is greatly increased. The study created a map of 12 addiction milestones six for cigarette use such As first inhalation and daily smoking and six for symptoms of nicotine dependence such As physical addiction and withdrawal symptoms. This gives a tool to practitioners. To be Able to almost diagnose where the individual is in terms of the persons trajectory towards dependence Oloughlin said. Past research has suggested that the progression from first puff to daily use takes Between two and three years while full fledged dependence takes even longer. Oloughlin said that Given How quickly Novice smokers can become addicted Public health officials need to change the focus of traditional antismoking campaigns. Canadian press by Carly weeks Ottawa health Canada has announced it will launch a review of 22 chemicals found in cosmetics in Canada that were recently banned by the european Union because they re considered unsafe to humans and May increase the risk of cancer. Several of the chemicals Are widely used in cosmetics sold in Canada including one ingredient acid Orange 24, that is found in 130 cosmetics. Canadas cosmetic Industry regulates itself and health Canada rarely pre approves products before they hit the shelves. Products or ingredients Are Only reviewed after a consumer complains or if another country bans them. We dont have a mandatory requirement for All cosmetic ingredients to be reviewed by us said Emily Feli Satti senior regulatory officer in the cosmetics division at health Canadas consumer product safety Bureau. Its a self regulated Industry for the most part. But that system is far too Slack and Means the Federal government Isnit doing enough to protect citizens from chemicals that Are unsafe and May even cause cancer said Rick Smith executive director of environmental defence a National advocacy group. We have some of the latest Laws in this area in the world he said. One of the major sources of pollution and of human health impacts is pollutants in consumer products like hair Dye and Many other consumer products. He said the chemical ban recently announced by the eur highlights the fact Ottawa has allowed Canada to fall behind other countries and the consequences May be detrimental to the health of canadians. If these kinds of approaches Are Good enough for europeans surely Canadian citizens deserve the same kind of Protection from our government Smith said.
