Thread: Lets talk about drugs!

I wonder, does anyone know how bad smoking Marijuana really is? I am totally against smoking, and luckily, it is mostly the nicotine that makes cigarettes cancer-bringing-stick-o-death. (and the nicotine also causes more chance at heart attacks, and stuff like that.) But still, how much tar does smoking pure marijuana really put in your lungs?

I heard the "marijuana has 3/4 times more tar in it than tobacco" is not claimed on good research, but on a single bad test as part of the anti-propaganda around marijuana.

Also, I heard bongs actually filter out just as much THC as Tar, thus not really helping (besides giving a way more comfortable smoke).

Anyone any Good sources for this information?

I didn't think there was any in smoking pure Marijuana....

Off course smoking causes tar residue to build up in your lungs. No reason to nassume Marijuana smoke is any worse for you than Tobacco-smoke. In fact the only difference is that of THC and Nicotine of which the latter is very toxic and addictive. I'm no health-saint either, but smoking tobacco is much more harmfull than smoking Marijuana for the obvious reasons.

It is fairly logical that a bong filters out alot of THC: THC is water soluble.
Perhaps the best way to do cannabis is to eat Spacecake, drink Marijuana Tea or inhale Vaporised THC. Vapors don't contain any tar and don't leave any residues on your lungs as all of it is able to be taken up into the bloodstream via your lungs.

Has anyone ever tried quidding Marijuana or Hash? Or should I be the first to give it a try?

Isn't it also true that smoking marijuana hasn't been linked to lung cancer?

I thought THC is fat soluble. Although I believe I read that bongs don't filter out the tar crap as much as it filters out the less bad part of the smoke and coincidentally some of the THC.

It is! Although, I have never had any luck with tea. I think you have to cook it in something fatty like whole milk (make some hot coco with weed).

Try it and tell me if it works.
