A member asked:

Is it safer to smoke herbal cigarettes like nirdosh or is it safer to smoke herbal molasses based hookah with quick burning/regular coals?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Doesn't matter what you are smoking. Our lungs were not designed to breath in hot smoke. It all is damaging to the lungs. Ask any severe asthmatic which one they would rather smoke or be around. NEITHER!!
