The thing is, are those things really at all healthier? The shisha I smoke doesn't come out burned, most of it is "baked" or vaporized = very little to no tar going into your lungs. I'd argue that the majority of the negative health effects from hookah come from inhaling whatever toxins and carcinogens which are realeased from the burning coal.
So aside from the addictive properties of tobacco, I can't imagine those rocks are any healtier since you're still inhaling burning coal.
I think if you want to make hookah healthier, replacing the coal as a heat source is where the technology should be evolving, rather than what's inside the bowl. Right now you can buy an "electric coal", but apperently it's a piece of shit. But I love the idea, it definately has potential if improved upon. Eg. some kind of drag sensor which determines when you're pulling and then it heats up like a normal coal would, or a manual heat control dial where you can quickly add more heat or less. If something like that heated just like a real coal, damn that would be revolutionary.

From what I've seen online and in youtube video's its not worth the cost or trouble and tends to break quickly.
