Oh sorry Sir, i googled for side effects of Shisha, one of the result is this thread,I hav't noticed its date of publish...
That stuff I don't know exactly but it is Blue mist flavor, with nothing extra ordinary added, that guy prepared that in just 15-20 minutes,

Altho im not a sheesha person... nor do i hate it, once in say months mayb... i have one.. but the onces ive had recently, do give u a feel of getting out of ur senses.. Ive also felt like vomiting after having them.

So probably they are adding something for addiction in these.

don't know about vomiting but its feeling was just like alcohol, you will be out of your mind & senses,
I use sheesha once or twice a week, nothing happened uptil now, but since yesterday I am not feeling well after having it...there must be something in its flavour :(, another guy told me that add some mirinda in its flavour, you will be 'gone' for a whole day...

Hazards of Shisha

The use of shisha is rapidly increasing in Pakistan despite its harmful effects on health. The shisha smoker may inhale as much smoke during one session as a cigarette smoker would inhale consuming 100 or more cigarettes

The use of 'shisha' also known as hookah or water pipe is rapidly increasing in the major cities of Pakistan. Infact, it has become a fashion to have shisha at parties or restaurants nowadays. Unfortunately, most people who use shisha are not aware of its harmful effects. Most restaurant owners tell their customers that it is merely flavoured smoke and that there is no tobacco in it.
However, the recently released report by World Health Organisation (WHO) on the health consequences of shisha use has proved to be an eye-opener. A commonly held belief is that shisha is harmless because the smoke first passes through water before it is inhaled. The shisha smoker may inhale as much smoke during one session as a cigarette smoker would inhale consuming 100 or more cigarettes. Even after it has passed through water, the smoke produced by a shisha contains a high level of toxins, including carbon monoxide, heavy metals and other carcinogens.

A similar hazard is posed to other people who are not directly using shisha by means of passive smoking. It is indeed sad that inspite of an ordinance in place, which bans smoking in public places many restaurants; offer shisha to their customers. Tobacco used in these water pipes is often sweetened and flavoured, making it very appealing to children and teenagers. A survey done on youngsters of school-going age in Karachi recently showed that almost 70 percent had tried shisha in the past six months, and this included children as young as seven.

Many of the commercially available packets, which are used for shisha smoking, have misleading labels such as 0.5 percent nicotine and zero tar. WHO in its report has strongly recommended that healthcare professionals educate the public about the potential dangers of shisha use. Moreover, the sharing of shisha between people poses an additional risk of TB, herpes, flu, meningitis and hepatitis transmission.

The Ministry of Health should not only ban shisha use in the restaurants but also take other practical steps for the full implementation of the 'Prohibition of Smoking Ordinance 2002' in the country.

jawaid khan is my chacha.. i can get you lots of info from his research...

bottom line is that any form of smoking is bad for health. no matter how you defend it.
if you intend to keep smoking no amount of proof will stop you.

bhailog sheesha is only harmful when u try to hold smoke more in your lungs to make "challay" and more harmful, u can make more harmful if u add BABA 120 or BABA 600 or ratna mix with orange gum/paan/cigar/takila/blue mist/mint and instead of water use chilled seven up/apple sidra/jo........ ker i bet if u guyz will enjoy it.

and yes smoking is harmful as i used to be chain smoker MARLBORO hard Imported, as my lungs are getting weaker, doctor's say that there is a small quantity of water inside your lungs, because of smoking the layer of tar inside the lungs makes u difficult for running, because when i breath hard or if i run, the pressure on my lungs makes it sticky inside the walls.

So i quite cigarette on saturday while coming back to sibbi, because when i put "NISWAR Green One" and smoke a cigarette i felt that my chest has a huge weight almost like i cant breath, after then i quite smoking and other stuff.

but sometimes when i go with my friends i take small puffs of sheesha.

SO GUYZ STAY OUT OF SHEESHA, infact u can smoke "BHEERI" which comes from india and u can get 20 BHEERI in just Rs 12/- from quetta which are manufactured in India then afghanistan then quetta.

Ganja is weed.. real good stuff try oi you will love it

In which form it is used? is it powder type ?

[onlyfaith]

well the best thing about the west is they do research on every thing.

eg research found out that smoking can be a risk factor to health.

Seesha mainly from the Arab/ Muslim world didnt get that attention till now, as far as research is concerned.

noiw it doesnt mean that its a healthy thing.

authenticated research is needed for the effects of sheesha on human body.

for all those who say that puffing is safe and inhaling is not, is just like tellling your mind to believe that puffing is not harmful, which certainely is not being realistic.

now i know that smoking can be really hard to quit but believing that sheesha or puffing is less harmful is not gonna save you.

smoking (Sheesha/Cigarette) kills.
