Ummm... What does smoking tobacco have to do with naval bootcamp? Smoking anything will effect your lungs and what ever so that's the only thing I can think of that'd make you weary. What kind of hookahs did you get? eBay doesn't exactly have the best quality ones out there, that's why I'm curiuos. From what I remember, Diamente burns hotter than 3 kings, I didn't like using them as much... but they'll do. While I have never tried the "tobacco free soex", I haven't heard great things about it. Most people on here don't like it so it hasn't inspired me to try it.

But yes, welcome to the hookah scene

Welcome to the magical world of the hookah and best of luck at boot camp (you get a lot of respect from me for both). If it's the addiction your worried about go with washed tobacco much less nicotine. (better taste in my opinion too.) Edited January 11, 2007 by fewwdragon

Nah. its not the addiction im worried about, I have done almost any non obscure drug under the sun. Addiction is not anything that has plagued me, knock on wood. I just am worried about the state of my lungs. I stopped smoking green about 10 months ago. Last thing I smoked was cherry flavored tobacco 3 days ago from a Hookah, and it felt like air, tasted like cherries. I sucked on that thing for a good hour. Kinda gives me an opiate buzz. But thats just me maybe?

thats the hookah nicotine buzz. all unwashed shisha will(should) give you that buzz.

washed tobacco has less nicotine and generally wont give you that buzz.

unwashed = .5%
washed = .05% nicotine on the package.

hookah smoke is much much much easier on the lungs compared to lets say... cigarettes. If you have ever smoked mint tobacco (layalina for example. my fav =D ) the mint is so strong it will clear your sinuses. maybe its just me but when i hookah i breathe at my best.
