do u know which one is worse to ur health, ciggerates or hupple bubble (shesha) ?:rolleyes:

nice question enjoy my death:gap: ..
friend i know u r the specialist in this subject so i will leave evrything for u...
yeah , they also differ in the type of cancer they cause in the lip... just a hint..

you know what, i think smoking is worse.....because you can carry cigarettes around and smoke anytime......but with shisha you are confined to one spot so mentally you'd probably be discouraged to smoke shisha 24/7......while sitting down....?

hmmm....I think shisha is less damaging for the health b'coz the nicotine and bad chemicals get filtered by the time they get to the smokers lungs..I'm not sure how it works, but I think it has to do with the water inside the sheesha thingy..this is not to say that smoking sheesha is a good idea...

from the comments i hear from my freinds who do sheesha and ciggerates, i think sheesha is much more damaging.
becaouse, wen the person takes it, hes relaxed, sitting, and inhales longer.

abt the nicotine content in both?.. no idea?

I have heard that have one puff of a shesha is like haveing a pack of cigs a day???
Dont know!!:duh: :eyes:

Dears,
Sorry for my intrusion.
There was an unterview in aljazeera channel wit Dr. Ahmed Hajr the minister of health in Qatar. The program of Bla Hodood.
From this prog I came to know that the amount of nicotine is equal to what is in 51 cigarettes.
Also there are 6000 chemical items in each cigarette.
4000 of them are well known cause of cancers.
The main 3 items are:
1-Carbon monoxide, which is posonous item and responsible arteries diseases.
2-Nicotine and its responsible for addiction of cigarettes.
3-Tar, we cal it qatran this a mixure of many items which are responsible for cause of different cancers.
please refer to the program it contains lots of info re the subject.
Thanks.;)

I mean the amount of nicotine in sheeshah is equal to 51 cigarettes.
pls note that.:color:

salam for all muslims
well, it is interesting to read and learn from u frineds
it was always thought that shesha is better than cig.
however
the new medical articles came to declare that shesha equals to about 15-50 cig.s ie about 2 packets of cig !!!
they also cleared up the reason by a known biological prinicipal which we all learnt in high school and it is called "diffusion" .. and it simply says since the shesha smoke is more humidified than the cig for the presence of water in shesha , it more easily diffused in the lung tissues, thus it causes more danger and has higher risk of developing lung cancer .... it is also known that a cig makes u lose about 5 minutes of ur biologically expected life , thus a shesha makes u lose 75 to 250 minutes of ur life ...
don't ur think that the family of smokers worth this time more than the smokers need their shesha or cig :confused:

thnx bro... enjoy ur time here in the health friend...

Very interesting debate here "Enjoy Ur Death" and I was amazed as the internet offers very little information regarding shesha. The only site talking about it is not a medical one and this is what it says:

"Despite the ominous-sounding name, the ingredients for smoking the Shisha Pipe are relatively harmless. What you are smoking through the long tube is tobacco leaves mixed with fruit shavings and held together by a sticky, sweet molasses. Common flavors are Strawberry and Apple". :confused:
