Got Cheeve?
I vape all my cigarettes. I carry around the Volcano on my shoulder every where I go then empty my cigarettes into the vape. I be hanging out at the corner store sucking out the vape bag posted up like, "Aye shawty, what it smell like?"

Plus, for a lot of people hookah is an occasional thing.
this

and the fact everyone is missing out on one of the main things about hookah....




the smoke passes through water, getting rid of some of the tar and carcinogens

Unless you have weed on it, why the !! are you even inhaling the smoke? Hookahs are about taste, just like cigars. Shouldn't be inhaling.

No no you're not thc helps clear your lungs cigs/tobacco does not

• Marijuana contains THC. THC is a bronchial dilator, which means it works like a cough drop and opens up your lungs, which aids clearance of smoke and dirt. Nicotine does just the opposite; it makes your lungs bunch up and makes it harder to cough anything up.

Smoke up!!

the vanilla dutch masters i used to smoke had a natural tobacco leaf wrapper. i was getting that double dose

thc and tobac

seems like a recipe for disaster

like uppers and downers type of thing but

i read some of the "emperor wears no clothes by jack herrer" and he says the same

about the trees..... i have the volcano but loved the blunts way more.

hookah smoke is more similar to vaping since nothing is actually being burnt
its the convective movement of heat through the shisha that produces the smoke
not to mention the fact that shisha is very moist and flavored which produces a lot of the smoke
not necessarily the heating of the tobacco

cigarettes have tons of added chemicals that fuel addiction and damage to your lungs
also cigs are being directly burnt with fire which produces the majority of carcinogens

there are easily just as many studies that suggest this as there are studies like the article suggested
hookah is a relatively new trend for americans so its tough to do a quick study on a long term effect

there's no way i believe an hour of hookah is even comparable to 200 cigs ...
Thank you. Someone with a brain.

Quality of cigarette smoke != quality of hookah smoke. So comparing volume of smoke inhaled is a false way of dictating which one is worse.

youre right but your lungs will become rocks and youll have difficulty breathing for the rest of your life. My moms a doctor and she sees those types of dudes alot.

Haven't had a cigarette or smoked hookah since. After 15+ years of smoking Newports I'm glad I'm finally done with em. Still get that little bit of nicotine with vaping but without all the extra chemicals and burning my lungs/throat. Cost wise it's not that much more with how much squares cost now, plus some vendors come out with some damn good juice flavors.

exactly how i feel, experience over gossip [pic]

no offense to who's hookah it was but they clearly set it up wrong. coming from someone who started off casual with the college scene and upgraded to their own hookah, they put the coal too close to the shisha which caused it to burn up and should never happen. they probably packed the bowl too much which caused it to burn which hurts like !! and can leave you with one of the worst headaches and mornings known ever. unless you have something against smoke, i recommend you try it again with a place that knows how to do it right, just to get a sense of actual hookah. i bum cigs pretty regularly too so i'm not biased, at least try hookah out right.

what i said just now to the other guy, you had it packed improperly... don't let one bad experience turn you off. even if you don't like it, get an accurate experience. and, like i said before, you're not burning it. heating to vapor is a bit different.

true, and even adding to that, most shishas these days are made with 0% tar (used right), as said on the box.

yep, pretty much every study agrees that THC expands your lungs and lowers the chance of tar affecting it but a whole-!!ing-lot. but i will mention for this thread that nicotine also exists in shisha since it is still tobacco, but in much lower concentrations due to the added moisture and flavor.

at least check out other research first, there are tons that don't agree with this.

couldn't agree more, i'm just a mediocre chemical engineer just outta school but i spent a lot of time studying this for a project and its clear from the beginning that's its two different processes. smoke is not just smoke, its not that clear, even if its all not particularly good for you.

just as a note, smoking bud doesn't have to be smoke, vaping is much cleaner for your lungs and won't build up tar/carcinogens. blunts definitely are bad for you though, but i suppose everyone picks their poison.

No need to compare. Average cig lasts couple minutes when lit so if you do the math and say it lasts say minimum 2 minutes thats 30 in an hour

a little off topic but this setup is awesome. flavor lasts longer, never ever burns, and ash won't ever get in the tobacco. it's indirect heat, not directly on the tobacco bowl, therefore i think it's cleaner smoke.
