Previously during the 84 hours they must be free of shisha. then respondents who smoked shisha in it contains water and 10 grams of Al-Fakher tobacco. The result rata2 that inhaled carbon monoxide content of smokers reached 42 parts per million (ppm), higher than that found in cigaret smokers 17 ppm.
Katherine had difficulty to know exactly what form the use of shisha that can increase the risk of heart disease or paru2. "Shisha probably will not make you paru2 cancer, but it will affect your health in other ways" he said.
Thomas Eissenberg, a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia Commnonwealth explained further, he said the study showed smoked shisha for 45 minutes the amount of tar produced 36 times higher than cigaret smoking for 5 minutes. "Tar-containing compounds of the main elements of smoke that can cause cancer. Although it is unclear whether different types of tar in shisha with cigaret"
