How many ciggaretes are equal to 1 bowl

[c4r80n]

I agree with Lukasa.Dry tobacco weighs next to nothing. I'd say 10 to 15 grams of shisha contains 2-3 grams of actual tobacco.and again, yes, we arn't burning the tobacco, we're vaporizing the molasses.

So I guess the conclusion is somewhere between 1.5 to around 6 cigerettes depending on how much you stick in each bowl would be an alright conclusion?

Alqoshnia: I've read it during the flight to Egypt in the air company's journal. It's in Lithuanian language btw... They said what " to smoke hookah = to smoke 2 cigarettes".

i guess the only thing we can deduce is that hookah is not a safe habit, so be safe kids!

my guess of 1 pack was more about the health side of it not the amount
of tobacco. Water does not filter as well as a cigarette filter in my
opinion. I mean there are soo many factors. Most people dont pass
around a cigarette while shisha is usually shared among friends. Shisha
doesnt have all the chemicals added. There are much more opportunities
to smoke a cigarette as opposed to shisha. In other words cigarettes
are much more unhealthy in my opinion. You have a 25 minute lunch
break, you eat and have 10 minutes leftover. Thats not enough time to
setup a hookah and smoke a hookah, on the other hand anyone can pull
out a cigarette and smoke it. People who smoke cigs in general smoke
alot more cigs then hookah smokers smoke shisha.

see the tobacco content in a cigarrete compared to shisha is the least of your wories. the thing that keep me away from ciggs (most of the time) is the cynide, formaldahide, and other poisons. so comparing a cigarette to shisha is simply not justified to me by any standards unless comparing the tobacco intake from a hookah to a cigarette. in which the hookah may or may not have as much. but comaparing the health affect of cigarettes to shisha is no brainer.
