health facts about smoking tobacco
Pipe smoking health affects, compared to cigarette smoking?

Im trying to convince my bf that pipe smoking is bad for you. I realize the tobacco isnt treated like in cigarettes and that your not supposed to inhale like with cigarettes but I know that some smoke has to end up in the lungs and that it has to have some health affects. Anyone have experience with this and have any facts about how the two habits compare? Thanks!!

While its not without some health risks, pipe smoking is much safer than cigarette smoking. Studies have shown pipe smokers actually can live longer than some non smokers.

I myself smoke a pipe, and play hockey. I can tell you pipe smoking has not affected my hockey play at all. Stress and eating the wrong foods is also bad for you. Pipe smoking for me reduces stress, and makes me feel good. I am not addicted to pipe tobacco, I can go a week without smoking a pipe, and I don’t have the withdrawl symptoms like a cigarette smoker does.
