joetuo Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Seriously funny. I wonder if they just opened up cigs and put in the tobacco then dumped a chunk of BBQ charcoal on it for the study.A standard 20-gram "head" of unflavored tobacco used in hookah encompasses nicotine levels comparable to 70 cigarettes, according to the Tobacco Control Coalition. A smoking session lasting at least 45 minutes will result in a blood nicotine level increase substantially higher than that of smoking 21 cigarettes, according to the report.

ioannisds Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Yeah, and WTF is the Tobacco Control Coalition? Sounds like some whiny group against smoking who will do anything to get their way, ala PETA. They need to go fuck themselves in the neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParryPerson Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 in all off these studies they either don't use shisha, or super heat it to thousands of degrees.I love to smoke in a furnace don't you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disturbedguru Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Well logically the amount of nicotine in your system when you smoke shisha...granted its tobacco and not washed; will be at the very least at a constant level longer...as far as the amount of nicotine in your system i would like to see a unbiased report sometime....what ever happened to journalism?

Dr.Moobs Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 All their trying to do is inform people of the dangers of smoking. Take it with a grain of salt, no telling if it is a true statement or hearsay. Just remember guys, check your moobs for cancer.Dr.Moobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonMac Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I have seen lately a lot of bad propganda for the hookah. I think that its because hookah is becoming very popular and I think that the cigarette companies see hookah as an alternative that many many many people are switching too. I think the Cig comapnies are trying to stop the smoking of hookah!! Hookah is ofcourse more healthy than cigs simply because its just some tobacco and molasas. there is no rat poison or methane and all that shit in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
