Nicotine is a natural toxin that is the tobacco leave's protection against insects. However, there are herbal tobacco-free and nicotine-free products. Like some pipe tobacco is fruity flavored, hookah products can be fruity and herbal.
The jury is still out on the harmful effects of hookah tobacco. But, nicotine is still toxic even airborne, whether it's in hookah smoke or cigarette smoke. You can also suffer mouth and throat related cancers.
