		</div><p>US president Donald Trump has proposed a ban on flavoured vaping products. following concerns about underage use of e-cigarettes.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The surprise White House announcement could shake up the multibillion-dollar vaping industry, which has been driven by sales of flavoured nicotine formulas.</p>
<p>The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will develop guidelines to remove from the market all e-cigarette flavours except tobacco, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar told reporters at the Oval Office.</p>
<p>Mr Trump, whose youngest son Barron is 13 years old, said vaping has become such a problem that he wants parents to be aware of what is happening.</p>

<p>We can’t allow people to get sick and we can’t have our youth be so affected,” he said.</p>

<p>Mr Trump’s first public comments on vaping come as health authorities investigate hundreds of breathing illnesses reported in people who have used e-cigarettes and other vaping devices.</p>
<p>No single device, ingredient or additive has been identified, though many cases involve marijuana vaping.</p>
<p>The restrictions announced by Trump officials would only apply to nicotine vaping products, which are regulated by the FDA.</p>
<p>The FDA has had the authority to ban vaping flavours since 2016, but has previously resisted calls to take that step.</p>
<p>Agency officials instead said they were studying if flavours could help smokers quit traditional cigarettes.</p>
<p>But parents, teachers and health advocates have increasingly called for a crackdown on flavours, arguing that they are overwhelmingly to blame for the explosion in underage vaping by US teens, particularly with small, discrete devices.</p>
<p>Federal law prohibits e-cigarette and all other tobacco sales to those under 18.</p>
<p>But federal health officials said that preliminary data shows more than one in four high school students reported vaping this year, compared with one in five students in 2018.</p>

<p>Health officials have called the trend an “epidemic,” and they fear teenagers who vape will eventually start smoking.</p>
<p>More than 80% of underage teens who use e-cigarettes say they picked their product because it “comes in flavours that I like,” according to government surveys.</p>
