hellothere Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 how many calories do you take in when smoking a normal sized bowl of tobacco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombiedepot Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Sorry, I don't have an answer, but I've never thought about it that way. I assume not very many, if any at all, with water as a filter, and smoking would cause you to use more energy than you're gaining, I would think.

yashman19 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Yeah I've never heard of anything such as coloric intake having to do with the hookah. I would imagine it would be an insignificant amount, moreso you would actually loose more calories than you would take in just from the process of breathing in general...God I hope no one comes in and confirms my worst nightmare... Smoking my hookah is actually making me fatter.... I'll kill you, I really will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
web250 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I doubt breathing in something can give you calroies. Maybe some minor calories from ingesting vaporized molasses... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Social Smoke Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I certainly don't have any qualifications, so take my opinions with a grain of salt. I come from an business/engineering background and not a biology or chemistry background. However I have been asked this a few times over the years. Again, with no real background to make this assumption, I feel that it is quite unlikely for lungs, which do not to the best of my knowledge process caloric intake or have anything to do with converting and processing food into energy, to absorb any measurable amount of calories from the sugars in the smoke. With that said, I kind of agree with some of the other views that the activity of smoking and moving will probably result in more calories being burned that absolute rest. Wonder if Tangiers has a different opinion on this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheeshabum Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 What about inhaling the glycerine? 25 years or so someone made a research that oral sex adds such and such an ammount of calories. I'd rather be burning them off making love, and not worrying about an occaisional 52 calories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownZero Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've gained 15lbs w/ my hookah diet!... I honestly believe that there is no intake in calories when smoking anything... like SS said, lungs are not digesting anything... and nothing is being eaten (unless of course you are eating something while smoking) If there is a chance that there is a calorie intake, then it's probably insignificant... but thats just an assumption that I choose to believe... and the oral sex research... I didn't know calories were being taken in! but then again, I'm sure there is a lot of fluids actually being digested during oral sex, whether you know it or not... so therefore, something is being "eaten". But hey, I'm willing to take in those 50 some calories to satisfy a girl. Woah, a bit off topic.. heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguineSolitude Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 downzero i think the calories would be coming from your half of the equation not from hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornellius Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Smoking Nargile will make you gain a few calouries probably no more than 10 because sugar dissolved in smoke will pass to your mouth fluids then pass to your stomach but it will be only A FEW calouries, no more and the efford you spend while smoking requires more calouries than that...For oral sex issue, you gain some calories because genital fluids consists a lot of proteins (for man I do not know femalekind) but you are likely to spend all of them pluss your glicerine reserves while making love (which is a good thing if you want to give up some weight ^^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Calories from maasel? I think approximately 3 calories...remembering that a "calorie" in the US for dietary purposes is actually 1000 thermodynamics calories.Not very much, in any degree, it contains no sugar, no complex fats, no protein, the amount of alcohol it contains, if any, amounts to very little.

Semen is mostly water ~70%, and has actually very little in terms of protein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
