Malana Cream Hash Now a staple of teen parties, hash picks up in popularity among youth in India. Kids as young as twelve are filling chillums or rolling joints with the cannabis substance, using it to get them through a stressful week or to ease social settings. Teachers and parents are only now becoming aware of the problem, though still unaware of what it looks like or how kids are using it. Yet the perils of hash are not to be ignored.
A Look At The Drug: Hash
Hash, or hashish, is a concentrated form of cannabis containing the same active ingredient, THC. It is smoked in a pipe, hookah, bong, vaporizer or joint, or it is cooked in foods.
Hash is prepared from the most potent part of the cannabis plant (called trichomes). This resin-producing growth is collected and compressed into balls, cakes, or cookie-like sheets. Pieces are then broken off of these and smoked.
Street names for hash vary from country to country, but in India variations include:
• Amsterdam Dream
• Malana Cream
• Bombay Black
The action of smoking hashish also has a number of terms, including:
• Getting faded
• Blown
• Blazing
• Getting ripped
• Toking bowls
• Spliffing
Teen Use Of Hash
Teens in India often smoke hash right under their teachers' noses and simply cover up their tracks, using eyedrops to remedy bloodshot eyes and excusing the smell as "rotten tobacco". They need only contact the right dealers and 10 grams of hash will show up almost immediately. Even cheap bars allow people to smoke hash. It's as easy to get as candy or gum.
The general consensus among teens is that hash is harmless, just a bit of fun, and in no way addictive. They are certain they can quit at will. Even parents sometimes allow a small amount at parties. When they finally do discover the dangerous side effects of cannabis, it is often too late. Addiction takes hold and often leads the way to heavier drug use.
Side Effects Of Marijuana And Byproducts
Malana Cream Hash Marijuana and its byproducts have a negative impact on physical and mental health. It clouds the mind and hinders social skills, causing users to rely on a joint to socialize or relax. It delays reaction time and decreases coordination, which makes it a hazard when driving or operating machinery.
Immediately following use, marijuana increases the heart rate and produces a dream-like state. This is the high that users crave, and it peaks within thirty minutes. They typically wear off after a few hours.
The mental effects of marijuana, however, can last for days, months or even years. A number of studies show that marijuana use, especially during the teenage years, can affect IQ and aptitude in adulthood. It can give people a cloudy feeling about life.
It can also cause a number of side effects, including nausea, vomiting, lung damage, respiratory infections, cancers of the mouth, lung and throat, agitation, mood swings, and hallucinations.
