How bad is hookah for you? Compared to weed or cigs? How bad is it if it is shar!

Actually, you must consider the fact that you are inhaling a substantially larger volume of smoke than a typical cigarette smoker!. The cooling of the smoke, which allows deeper hits, and the prolonged sessions actually lead to produce somewhere around 30 times the tar ( particulate matter ), and slightly more nicotine than a typical cigarette smoker!. And don't think the water is going to filter out all the heavy metals and harmful chemicals, because it's not!. I smoke hookah so I take this information into account whenever I do it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah hookah is the pipe/bong!. Sheesha is the tobacco smoked through a hookah!. It's nothing like cigs because it doesn't have the tar and chemicals in it!. The water is a very good filter too, so not bad for you I would say!. If you smoke it for a long enough period of time you will get a tobacco high!. Can't say if it is like weed as I have not had weed, but definately some light-headedness!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I read a study couple of months ago that its at least 100 times worse than cigarettes when comparing the amount you inhale!.
Secondly, they had proved that contrary to the belief that water purifies the smoke, water proved to be far worse filter than the regular cigarette butt!.
So overall, hukka is far worse!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hookah is the pipe, not what is in the pipe!. The water in the pipe helps filter out the carcinogens so I would suppose it is a little better in that respect!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hookah is tobacco, but it's filtered in water and doesn't have all those chemicals put in cigarrettes!.

Marijuana is safer than tobacco in general!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
