Inhaling combustion byproducts of cigarettes, devils lettuce... a car tire, etc is terrible for your lungs. Theres nothing about weed that makes it safe to smoke. I imagine it's probably worse the tobacco in some areas I imagine (not that "filters" help, but I'm sure they do something), but I'm just speculating. I would treat it with the same risks as 'regular' smoking.
There are better ways.
- terminalbraid 2y agoGood news! Marijuana consumption isn't limited to smoking.
- david-gpu 2y agoGrowing up it was not unusual for people to smoke one or two packs of cigarettes a day. That is 20 to 40 units daily. Do you have a sense of how much weed most people consume? It is a tiny fraction of that. I honestly don't know how I would feel after smoking a whole joint all by myself because I have experienced hallucinations after a lot less than that. Granted, I have low tolerance, but still. Modern weed packs a punch. Not to mention that vaping bypasses the need for burning the flowers in the first place.
- consteval 2y agoI think this is the key to why smoking MJ isn't really that bad (and, conversely, why vaping nicotine vapes may be worse in some respects than Tobacco). The quantity matters. MJ smoke is a tiny amount if done daily, while Tobacco is orders of magnitude more. And vapes have no limits, so to speak. One disposable is maybe 12 packs worth of nicotine, but you can easily finish it in 4 days if you try.
