Logistic regression is a statistical method used to describe the relationship between an outcome variable and one or more exposure variables. Logistic regression can help to figure out the effect of an exposure variable (e.g. the number of cigarettes per day) on a categorical outcome variable (e.g. Having a heart attack). Note that the outcome variable is always categorical, but the exposure variables can be either categorical or quantitative.
