Tobacco regulation refers to the laws and policies designed to control the production, distribution, and consumption of tobacco products. These regulations aim to reduce tobacco use and its associated health risks, particularly among young people. Governments often implement measures such as age restrictions, advertising bans, and health warnings on packaging to discourage smoking. In many countries, organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) support tobacco regulation through initiatives like the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. This global treaty encourages nations to adopt comprehensive strategies, including taxation on tobacco products and public smoking bans, to protect public health and promote healthier lifestyles.
