Cuts the craving
Water the purifier
The nicotine catch
Social activity
Hookah is not very addictivelike cigarettes.
It is mainly due to lesspercentage of nicotinecontent in it.
But, it can be addictive if notsmoked for a longer period oftime.
Water in the basin of thepipe absorbs the dangerouschemicals found in thetobacco
It removes some toxiccompounds like particulates
But existing researchdocuments that still manytoxins do remain in thewater-filtered smoke
Nicotine, the main addictive
compound in tobacco smoke,passes through the waterfilter
Therefore, addiction possibleif smoked for a longer
duration
But, still a better option thancigarettes if smoked in agroup
Smoking Hookah is a longprocess
Dont get an instant kick asin cigarettes
Being a social activity, thetotal time of individualsmoking becomes very less.
