Graphic warning labels (GWL) are striking visual images of the potential physical deterioration and disease manifestations associated with using tobacco products. Results of a Canadian study, which estimates between a 12.1% and 19.6% decrease of overall use of smoked tobacco products (between the years 2000 and 2012), suggest that the FDA adopt GWLs to combat tobacco use.
