Sonthert Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I actually anecdotally heard about a study where they looked at the cancer rates for different types of smokers...cigarette smokers were very high, cigar smokers somewhat high, but pipe smokers had a lower incidence of cancer than non-smokers...

Guest Abide Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 yeah, that study was called the Surgeon General's Report. The mortality rate of pipe smokers that were not inhaling and smoked between 0 and 10 bowls a day was .8, non smokers were 1.0 pipe smokers who inhaled were 1.0 cigar smokers who inhaled were like 1.2 or something and cigarette smokers were way up there. I wish they had thrown hookahs in there but then this was back in what? 68? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
