Hookah Smoking, Why It’s Too Bad for
You!!
Everybody knows that cigarette smoking is injurious to health and so is smoking
Shisha! The figures regarding this are alarming to say the least. In the U.S. alone 1
out of every 5 persons die due to smoking related causes. Again, the death rate
attributed to smoking is a staggering 440,000 people per year. People smoke in a
wide variety of manners and one of the popular devices used is of course the
traditional hookah!
There are other problems associated with this favourite smoking habit as well.
Studies show that the hookah pipe shared by various people helps in the
transmission of deadly bacteria and other disease-causing organisms. You may
suffer from hepatitis A, one of the fallouts of such transmissions.
What are the various diseases you can suffer from by continuing with your hookah
addiction?
Cancer
As everybody knows smokers are at higher risk to get cancer compared to their non-
smoking counterparts. Some of the common afflictions include throat, mouth, and
lung cancer. Mouth cancer mostly afflicts lips and tongue. 90% of all lung cancer
patients are smokers with only 0.5% of non-smokers being detected with the
disease. 88% of people suffering from cancer in India seem to be hookah users even
if they quitted later. Studies show that when it comes to disease causing, both
cigarettes and hookah are similar culprits.
Chronic Bronchitis
Fits of coughing with profuse mucous production occurs when you suffer from
chronic bronchitis. You are suffering continues for at least 3 months. Studies have
found that smoking is the main culprit for such occurrence and approximately 80% of
people suffering from this disease are smokers. Of every 20 smokers, 90% show
emphysema after death, which is not the case with non-smokers.
Emphysema
This is a disease of the airways and it is progressive in variety. The patient gradually
loses his/her lung functioning and it becomes an irreversible process. While
treatments are available, that can improve your condition there is little to do the
damage caused over time. Symptoms include morning headache, breathing difficulty,
fatigue, weight loss, and breathe tightness. 120,000+ Americans die of emphysema
every year and this is the fourth largest reason behind mortality in US.
Cardiovascular diseases
Shisha smokers show a high propensity for heart diseases and it proves to be a
serious health threat for them. Intake of carbon mono oxide via hookah is quite
substantial with second hand smoke a big reason to worry. After all, enjoyment
generally occurs in a group setting with multiple people using the same water pipe for
smoking.
Ideally, one should completely stay away from Shisha indulgence especially in view
of the life-threatening diseases it may cause. Why place your life on the line for a
fleeting ple,
