What is Hookah?
A hookah, shisha, or waterpipe is a single- or multi-stemmed instrument for heating or vaporizing and then smoking either tobacco, flavored tobacco, or sometimes cannabis, hashish, and opium.
The smoke is passed through a water basin—often glass-based—before inhalation.

Can hookah burn your lungs?
Cigarettes “burn” the lungs because they use heat, and hookah smoke is cooler, so it does not burn. Smoke from a hookah can still damage the heart and lungs, even after cooling down.
Are there any benefits to hookah?
Helps you to relax.
Shisha is commonly used after having a meal or when having a conversation with others. The upside of using shisha to relax as opposed to smoking a regular cigarette is that its fewer chemicals and toxins meaning your health won’t deteriorate as quickly.
Is smoking hookah relaxing?
Hookah-flavored tobacco consists of nicotine which helps in the release of dopamine once inhaled. This release is what causes an individual to feel good, or a sense of calmness when stressed.
Hookah smoking is a safer alternative in reducing stress when compared to cigarette smoking in regard to nicotine content.1
