Vaporization Better Than Inhaled Marijuana Smoke

by Robert McGregor

Inhaling marijuana smoke is the quickest way to enjoy the benefits of this drug. But that method can destroy your lungs.

Studies show that 95 percent of tetrahydrocannabinol or THC (the main psychoactive substance of marijuana) enter the bloodstream in the first few seconds of inhaling. If you continue, your body absorbs tar and other harmful chemicals that can irritate the throat and the lungs, and cause cancer later.

But researchers have found a way to avoid this. The solution lies in vaporization which can eliminate the adverse effects of smoked marijuana. How is this possible? Unlike cigarette smoking that causes combustion, vaporizers heat up the plant until its active ingredients are vaporized. Since the plant is not burned, this reduces the absorption of harmful chemicals. This makes vaporization a smart and healthy way of using marijuana.

Without combustion, there are no toxic chemicals that can irritate the throat and lungs, and cause serious health problems later. You inhale the beneficial active ingredients of marijuana without suffering from the ill effects of smoking. Tests made by California NORML and the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies show that vaporizers can quickly deliver marijuana’s active ingredients to the body without harmful toxins like polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons which are believed to cause cancer.

Burning the plant releases these toxins – the reason why smoking marijuana is bad. Even if the connection between marijuana and cancer has not been conclusively shown, we know that smoking marijuana can give a person bronchitis and respiratory troubles.

In 2006, Leiden University researchers found that these problems can be eliminated with the use of vaporizers. This device is considered a safe and effective herbal delivery system that should be made available to patients. They concluded that vaporization is comparable to smoking with none of the latter’s side effects.
