About Hookah Smoke
Hookah smoke is not less toxic than cigarette smoke, as is widely believed. In fact, because hookah pipes do not filter as well as cigarette filters do, it is even more damaging.
About Nicotine
Nicotine is one of the most heavily used addictive drugs in the United States. Through its delivery mechanism, cigarettes and chewing tobacco, it is also the leading preventable cause of disease, disability and death in the U.S, accounting for 90% of lung cancer cases, or 38,000 deaths per year. It is illegal in most U.S. states to sell cigarettes and chewing tobacco to people under the age of 18. Some state have raised the age to 19.
