<p>hookah has 0.05% tobacco. atleast here in india thats what they put. we even have a rule here that restricts ppl under 18 to do hookah. but its pretty normal and its ok. i donno how much tobacco a cigg has, but the hookah definitely has less.</p>
<p>and you can get a kick from hookah. believe me, you can.</p>
<p>i believe u saket!!
the kick is unbelievable though… its quite temporary if u take a longgg puff … but its good :P</p>
<p>mach tech, hookah isnt a drug.</p>
<p>■■■■■ hookah is such a joke, i cant believe people take it so seriously</p>
<p>Have you guys ever realized how nasty it looks to see smoke coming from someone’s mouth? Come on, it’s no joke, it’s something that needs to stop because it could be dangerous and is disgusting!</p>
<p>Hookah is worse for you than cigarettes, but if you use it infrequently (two or three times a month), it shouldn’t be a problem. Americanized hookah may be a bit weaker, but abroad, each rock is generally equivalent to a few packs of cigarettes by themselves.</p>
<p>And don’t believe anything the logic about it being filtered through water – that’s just a fallacy. I’m not saying hookah will kill you, but it’s not really good for you either.</p>
<p>you’re a moron if you think any kind of smoke is good for you, but anything in moderation is not going to be especially bad.</p>

hookah is bad for the teeth</p>
<p>Many people are mislead in believing that water filters out the toxins and that nicotine is reduced in water pipe smoking, Krebs continued. Not only does water pipe smoking include the same substances as cigarette smoke such as carbon monoxide and tar, tobacco used for water pipe smoking contains two to four percent nicotine verses one to three percent for cigarettes.</p>

Hookah water pipes are not safe to smoke. The water does not filter out all the toxins, and the nicotine is addictive. Several types of cancer and gum disease have been linked to hookah smoking. </p>
<p>Hookah may be only a social activity, however, the addiction to nicotine can increase the risk of cigarette smoking.</p>

<p>seems hookah is pretty bad for you teeth, and your breath smells</p>
<p>again, all of thsoe are common sense. Doing it sparingly though would cause no problems. No one gets addicted off of a couple cigs worth of nicotine, and if you only do it on occasion you wont be addicted, and the teeth and bad breath is common sense, it’s smoke. And no, the water doesn’t filter toxins, but in small doses they wont pose ill effects.</p>
<p>It’s so funny how hookah smokers try to prove that it’s not harmful. YES IT’S BAD. Get over it, stop proving they are not. And stop comparing hookah with coffee or anything else, they consist of totally different chemicals. My mom has a medical degree and I talked with her about drugs and stuff. She said they all harmful no matter what it is.
Whats the point of smoking? I am fine with drinking, but smoking is totally different. Whats the point of getting “high”. Cannot you find any other fun things to do in this world?</p>

<p>the last hookah with you was the best one, seriously. Thts when i learned that smalleys tend to be more effective than biggies…</p>
<p>Also the flavour was pretty good too (i think, mix fruit))</p>
<p>Irbis- Alcohol’s a drug buddy, drunk is the same as high, they’re just different words for different intoxications. No one here is saying that hooka is not bad for you. Of course any drug isn’t gonna be good for you, but there are varying degrees of bad, and anything in moderation will not be “bad” enough to cause any noticable harm.</p>
<p>i cant believe ppl are disscussing this. hookah has 0.05% nicotine per kilogram. it has it but its not insane its not liek if you smoke it youll pass out or get high. and all you righteous ppl chill out, theres no fun in life if you just play everything safe.</p>
<p>its not called play it safe, its called value life. I dont understand why anyone would want to import harmful foreign substance into the body in the first place. Doesnt matter if its LESS harmful than other things, bottom line is: IT IS HARMFUL period, </p>
<p>no offense to anyone, but some people are so ridiculous</p>
<p>Well, people do whatever blows their skirts up (as one of my teacher says). If they die, they die. They know the consequences (or should at least).</p>
<p>
If you find getting high/smoking hookah as the only way to have fun in life, then I am sorry</p>
<p>no one’s saying it’s the only way, but if people enjoy it then what business is it of yours. You don’t want to put anything harmful into your body, find, then don’t. Don’t get so self riteous about it thinking you’re better than people who choose differently. If someone knows the risks and wants to do it what business is it of yours or anyone else to ook down on them for it.</p>

I am not against people who like to do it, I am against people who try to convince others that it’s totally not harmful. Ready posts careful next time.</p>
