IS ENJOYING SHISHA THE SAME AS SMOKING CIGARETTES?

No. All tobacco products have risks but comparing shisha to cigarettes is erroneous and misleading.

Shisha is heated at a temperature that is four times cooler than a burning cigarette and creates an aerosol that is 75% water (60%) and glycerol (15%). By contrast, cigarette smoke is 75% tar, carbon monoxide, and nicotine.

Most people enjoy shisha in moderation, far less often than typical smokers light up a cigarette. In the United States, for example, 90% of people who enjoy shisha do so no more than once per month. In comparison, the average American cigarette smoker will smoke 14 cigarettes per day . In Germany, the average person who enjoys shisha does so just twice per week.

Shisha takes time to prepare and cannot be transported easily or used “on the go.” Shisha is a unique cultural and social experience, whose history, ingredients, and use make it incomparable to other tobacco products characterized by high frequency use.
