What Shisha Is?

Water pipes (hookahs) are the first new tobacco trends of the 21st century, giving new popularity to an old form of tobacco use. Hookah use continues to grow among teenagers; however, misconceptions about the safety of hookah use are widespread and need to be addressed. The other names of shisha include Hubble Bubble, Narghile, Ghoza and chica. In the U.S., hookah typically involves a water pipe system that uses wood charcoal to burn flavored tobacco on a piece of foil. As the charcoal burns, smoke passes through the tobacco mixture, then cools as it bubbles through the water before being inhaled through the mouthpiece.
