IS THE
NARGUILLA
AS
HARMLESS
AS IT
SEEMS?
Since flavored tobacco is
used, it appears that
something harmful is not
being smoked. But is that
true?

But the World Health Organization says
on its website that there is no objective
evidence that suggests that tobacco
smoked with a waterpipe is less harmful
than smoking it in a cigarette and a
health expert spoke to the BBC of all the
tests that show that they are more
harmful.
WHAT IS HOOKAH TOBACCO SMOKING?
WATERPIPE SMOKING IS A FORM OF
TOBACCO CONSUMPTION THAT
USE A SINGLE OR MULTI-STEM
INSTRUMENT TO SMOKE FLAVORED OR
UNFLAVORED TOBACCO, WHERE THE
SMOKE IS DESIGNED TO PASS
WATER OR OTHER LIQUID BEFORE
REACHING THE SMOKER.
ARE THEY "E-HOOKAHS", "E-SHISHA" OR
"HOOKAH PEN

NARGUILLA
A SOCIAL ACTIVITY, BUT NO
LESS DANGEROUS THIS TREND
COULD CAUSE "THE SECOND
GLOBAL EPIDEMIC OF TOBACCO
USE SINCE SMOKING"
Según un nuevo estudio... (Narguilé, 2019).
Who uses narguilla?
Historically, indigenous people of Africa and Asia for at least four centuries In the late 19th
and early 20th centuries, smoking waterpipe tobacco was
popular with older men in the Middle East who primarily used the
rough flavorless tobacco, which was repulsive to young people. However,
the introduction of flavored tobacco in the early 1990s
These are some basic facts about the narguilla:
Narguilla types vary in size and style, but a typical
modern narguilla includes a head, a metal body, a glass
filled with water, and a long flexible tube with a
mouthpiece. The flavored smoke is inhaled through the
tube and is usually shared in a group, passed from
person to person.
The tobacco mixture in narguila, known as shisha, is
heated using charcoal.
The narguilla is also known by the names hookah,
hookah, hookah, narghile, argileh, hubble-bubble, and
goza.
Some new forms of hookah include steamed stones and
disposable electronic hookahs or hookah pens. Both
produce a vapor that is inhaled.

HOW DOES
IT WORK?
TYPICALLY, GROUPS OF
PEOPLE SIT AROUND A
HOOKAH TO SMOKE A
MIXTURE OF SHREDDED
TOBACCO KNOWN AS SISHA,
USUALLY SWEETENED WITH
FRUIT OR SWEET FLAVORS.
THE VASE-LIKE HOOKAH
TOWER IS HEATED NEAR THE
TOP BY LIGHTING CHARCOAL
OR WOOD CHIPS. SMOKE AND
VAPOR FROM BURNED
TOBACCO BUBBLE THROUGH
THE WATER CHAMBER OF THE
HOOKAH AND PASS INTO ONE
OR MORE HOSES THROUGH
WHICH USERS INHALE BEFORE
PASSING IT ON TO THE NEXT
PERSON IN THE GROUP.

HOOKAH SMOKING IS NOT
SAFE.
BECAUSE TOBACCO SMOKE PASSES THROUGH
THE WATER, MANY PEOPLE MISTAKENLY THINK
THAT HOOKAHS ARE SAFER THAN CIGARETTES.
HOWEVER, STUDIES SHOW THAT HOOKAHS DO
NOT EFFECTIVELY FILTER HARMFUL
SUBSTANCES IN SMOKE. HOOKAH SMOKERS
MAY END UP BREATHING IN LARGER AMOUNTS
OF NICOTINE, METALS, AND TOXIC CHEMICALS.
IN ADDITION, THE SHARED HOSE NOZZLES
ALSO SPREAD GERMS.

WHAT IS
NARGUILA MADE
OF?
HOOKAH SMOKE
CONTAINS HIGH LEVELS
OF TOXIC COMPOUNDS,
SUCH AS TAR, CARBON
MONOXIDE, HEAVY
METALS, AND CANCER-
CAUSING CHEMICALS
(CARCINOGENS).
IN FACT, HOOKAH
SMOKERS ARE EXPOSED
TO MORE CARBON
MONOXIDE AND SMOKE
THAN CIGARETTE
SMOKERS.
AS WITH CIGARETTE
SMOKING, HOOKAH
SMOKING IS LINKED TO
LUNG AND ORAL
CANCERS, HEART
DISEASE, AND OTHER
SERIOUS ILLNESSES.
WHEN SMOKING A
HOOKAH, YOU RECEIVE
ABOUT THE SAME
AMOUNT OF NICOTINE
AS WHEN SMOKING
CIGARETTES, POSSIBLY
LEADING TO TOBACCO
DEPENDENCE.

FUN FACT
PREGNANT WOMEN
WHO SMOKE
HOOKAHS CAN GIVE
BIRTH TO LOW-BIRTH-
WEIGHT BABIES.
HOOKAH PIPES USED IN
HOOKAH BARS AND
CAFES MAY NOT BE
PROPERLY CLEANED,
LEADING TO THE RISK
OF SPREADING
INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

WHAT ARE THE LONG-TERM HEALTH BENEFITS OF QUITTING SMOKING?
QUITTING SMOKING REDUCES THE RISK OF CANCER AND MANY OTHER
DISEASES, SUCH AS HEART DISEASE AND CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE
PULMONARY DISEASE (COPD), BOTH OF WHICH ARE CAUSED BY SMOKING.
PEOPLE WHO QUIT SMOKING, REGARDLESS OF THEIR AGE, ARE LESS LIKELY
TO DIE FROM SMOKING-RELATED ILLNESS THAN THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO
SMOKE. SMOKERS WHO QUIT BEFORE AGE 40 REDUCE THEIR CHANCE OF
DYING PREMATURELY FROM SMOKING-RELATED ILLNESSES BY ABOUT 90%,
AND THOSE WHO QUIT AT 45-54 YEARS OF AGE REDUCE THEIR CHANCE OF
DYING PREMATURELY BY NEARLY TWO-THIRDS

DO YOU LOWER YOUR RISK OF
GETTING AND DYING FROM
CANCER IF YOU QUIT SMOKING?
YES. QUITTING SMOKING
REDUCES THE RISK OF GETTING
CANCER AND DYING FROM
CANCER AND OTHER DISEASES
CAUSED BY SMOKING.
ALTHOUGH IT IS NEVER TOO LATE
TO BENEFIT FROM QUITTING, THE
BENEFIT IS GREATEST FOR THOSE
WHO DO SO AT A YOUNGER AGE
(3).
The risk of premature death and the
chances of developing and dying from
smoking-related cancer depend on many
factors, including the number of years a
person has smoked, the number of
cigarettes smoked per day, and the age
when they started smoking.
In conclusion, hookah smoking carries significant risks that
can lead to life-threatening diseases and is not a beneficial
replacement for smoking, quite the opposite.
