JUUL and the Rise of Teen Smokers

In this episode we talk about JUUL, a type of e-cigarette that’s extremely popular among young people. Almost half of the people who followed JUUL on Twitter last year were not old enough to legally purchase e-cigarettes in the United States. We also discuss the complications smoking can have on patients after surgery, an alternative idea to e-cigarettes and, because we need to let it out, our thoughts on the final episode of Game of Thrones. **GROSS ANATOMY PODCAST IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT.

Gross Antaomy is where pop culture and health culture meet. Dr. Jason Cohen and Ali address medical questions that the doc is asked by friends, family, and often strangers. We also love to talk pop culture and how it relates to health and medicine — like celebrity diets, Amy Schumer speaking out about endometriosis and our doctor reviews of medical TV and movies. We also splice in professional interviews, check out our episode with TV writer and The Resident co-creator Dr. Roshan Sethi, or our interview with famous plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Rey aka DR. 90210, and don't miss our Q&A with Miss USA Nana Meriwether and many more!
