Hookah Smoke Means Double Trouble For Users

Kelsey Connolly, a junior from Stilwell, enjoys the occasional hookah smoking cigarettes with friends on Massachusetts Street. The atmosphere in the hookah bar is filled with excitement. The room she sits in is decorated with antique hookah pipes and the blissful sound of Indian music rings through her eardrums as the mouthpiece is passed to her. She wraps her lips around the hookah pipe, filling her lungs to full capacity. When she finally exhales, lungs empty of the mint-tinted smoke. She lowers her body into her seat feeling relaxed and a slight buzz as she passes the hookah pipe to the next person.

“I only do it once in awhile, so I enjoy it when I do, but I’ve heard that a single session of hookah smoking cigarettes can equal up to the volume of smoking cigarettes a lot of cigarettes,” Connolly said. “But it is fun and relaxing and it doesn’t leave a nasty taste in your mouth.”

Many people believe hookah to be less dangerous than cigarette smoking cigarettes, but experts say that hookah smoking cigarettes has the same, if not more, harmful effects as cigarette smoking cigarettes.

The hookah is a water pipe used to smoke cigarettes specially made cigarettes that is available in a variety of flavors. According to the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention, this traditional smoking cigarettes method originated in ancient Persia and India and has been used for centuries. However, in the last few decades, hookah smoking cigarettes has become quite popular on college campuses across the United States.

The charcoal, which is placed at the head of the hookah pipe, is used to light and keep the cheap cigarettes burning during the smoking cigarettes session. Kimber Richter, associate professor of preventive medicine, said that the charcoal produces high levels of carbon monoxide, which prevents a person from not getting enough oxygen, and therefore makes their heart work harder.

“The myth that water filters out harmful chemicals in hookah isn’t true,” Richter said. “Even after it has passed through water, the hookah smoke cigarettes still contains high levels of toxins, it doesn’t filter out chemicals, just cools them.”

Smoking sessions can last anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the situation. Edward Ellerbeck, chair of the department for medicine, said that hookah smoking cigarettes delivers nicotine and is at least as dangerous as cigarette smoke, especially when it comes to secondhand smoke.

“Side strain smoke cigarettes in hookah is a serious risk for nonsmokers because it contains smoke cigarettes from both the cheap cigarettes and the charcoal,” said Ellerbeck.

There are just as many toxins in hookah smoke cigarettes as cigarette smoke cigarettes but there have not been a lot of studies on the health effects of smoking cigarettes hookah. However, there have been studies of babies born to women who smoked one or more water pipes a day during pregnancy.

“During this nine-month study, babies tend to have lower birth rates and have a higher risk for different respiratory diseases,” Richter said.

Sharing a hookah is also dangerous because it may increase the risk of transmitting certain diseases through the mouthpiece. The juice in the mouthpiece is very similar to chewing cheap cigarettes in that it gives the same exposure to oral cancers.

“People don’t realize how unsanitary hookah smoking cigarettes really is,” Richter said. “You don’t know how well pipes are cleaned, so it’s like you’re doing hookah with everybody. It’s the same concept as kissing a stranger or sharing the same spoon.”

Hookah can be incredibly addictive and deadly if it’s used daily and for long periods of time. Hookah smoking cigarettes can also be considered training wheels for cigarette smoking cigarettes and the use of other cigarettes forms.

“If you don’t want to take in toxins knowingly, you’ll avoid smoking cigarettes a lot of hookah,” Richter said.
