Is shisha as bad as smoking?

Did you ever think about the difference between shisha and cigerette smoking?

Tobacco, a widely known mineral is used to great effects but as we know, “there’s always the bad with the good.” Doesn’t matter for what purpose we use, in cigarettes, shisha, tumbaco or cigar, it effects the person the same way as another but it all depends on the amount ingested.

If we take this thing into consideration, in early times, shisha was inhaled by adults on rare occasions but now, the more than 95% of the youngsters are huffing shisha. The amount of people gasping shisha to the amount who smoke cigarettes, the difference is of a wide margin. Moreover, experts conclude that both things are extremely detrimental, however shisha damages our internal organs more chronically than cigarettes as we puff shisha’s smoke more than 15 cigarettes put together, which subdues our mind and make us lose track of times 10 times more rapidly than cigarettes.                                        

But this does not mean that cigarettes are not ruthless. In Europe, 300 people die each day of smoking cigarettes. 500 people, in Pakistan, die from brain tumor caused by cigarettes each year and believe it or not, people who develop mouth cancer or weaken their cord joints, still don’t lose the habit of smoking.

It can be said that shisha is not as bad as smoking, but worst. Nowadays, children at the age of 12 have started huffing shisha but their parents won’t allow them to smoke. Why? Because they do not know what is worse than the two. Shisha points can be seen in every area in Pakistan and tons of youngsters relish their lives with this, as they say, luxurious thing.

Experts conclude that if shisha is not stopped among youngsters, then the imminent generation will not be as effective to the world as the preceding ones.

True, when huffing shisha, we get relieved of our tensions and strains but that is for some hours. The after effects come 10 times worse on our health. Some advertisements are made encourage people to take medicines to wash away this corrupt habit but they are worse than smoking 10 cigars at a time!

Awareness should be lightened in the people, especially youngsters to stop smoking or shisha as both are worse for our health and also chronically affects the people around you. “Is shisha as bad as smoking?” … Simple answer… “No, but worse!”
