Travellers are being warned about the dangers of shisha smoking whilst on holiday abroad.
Shisha smoking is a common social activity at a number of travel destinations, including Turkey, Dubai, Egypt and Morocco. Experts say that one smoking session can be the equivalent of having a 100 cigarettes.
The practice, which is commonplace in eastern Mediterranean countries, the Middle East, and northern Africa, involves smoking tobacco prepared in molasses and flavoured with fruit flavours through a water pipe. However, vape pod retailer Vape Club has warned about the dangers of shisha, or hookah, smoking which can lead to heart disease, cancers, and even carbon monoxide poisoning, reports Wales Online.
