I know, tar is not good, bottom line.
Smoking weed is not good for your lungs. What I am saying is that it IS substantially less harmfull than tobacco.

Smoking ANYTHING isnt good for you, luckily though, there are healthier ways of cannabis use. Bongs, vapes, eating, etc.

I agree with that 100%, sorry I stated that tar is what causes cancer, I was just repeating what I heard from ignorant anti-drug propoganda.

Mabye not kill, but it will effect your lung capacity for sure. But, then again, smoking pot in the first place will open up your airways, so as long as you aren't an athlete I don't think you have much to worry about. And even then, I smoked all through my high school wrestling days and never had a problem keeping up with the rest of the teams or any of my opponenets. Even when to Super Sectionals, one step down from the State level competition. Whereas, my friend Rob, who smoked cigarrettes while trying to wrestle, had to leave the team because he just couldn't do any of the cardiovascular work. Cannabis hurts your lungs more so than tobacco? HA! :jerkit:

it is so strange to me that alchol is killing more college students and more teenagers and it is so easy for a 14 year old or younger to get it!!! i have read about the deaths of many kids who shoot 21 shot on their 21st birthday and died of alchol poisening.....if u tried to smoke 21 joints on your 21st maybe the worst thing that would happen is you would have to go to the gro. store the next day or u would fall asleep before your b-day was over!!!
whatever its weird to me

Didn't Bob Marley die from throat cancer? Dunno if he smoked cigs or not.. But that man sure did smoke the ganja!

No he didn't. He had a cancerous toe which he refused to amputate (part of Rastifarian religion doesn't let you amputate).

That's one of the main reasons I love marijuana. You cannot overdose, ever. I love knowing I can lay down on my bed and smoke as much weed as I want and nothing bad ever happens.

I don't know how many people saw on that chart, the part about caffeine. I recently stopped drinking soda period, I had a really bad caffeine habit.

CAFFEINE (From stress, ulcers, and triggering
irregular heartbeats, etc.) 1,000 to 10,000

[Brett2theMax]

yeah dude, cafine is my addiction. . . if i wasnt so lazy i would drink a pot of coffee a day, but instead i have a sobe adrenaline rush. Its terrible for me and i know it, especially since there is a history of strokes in my family. . . i should really quit drinkin that shit. . . good to know about all the stuff in the thread though, thanx for the info who ever started it, and the long article pulled from erowid, thats a great sight.

Peace

soda period is horrible. liquid caloric intake is so much worse than solid caloric intake. liquid calories are more prepared to be absorbed into the body they don't take a lot of digestion to release, which is why any sports trainer will tell you to mix gatorade half water half gatorade when you are in heavy athletic activity, because it is too many calories for your body to process while your metabolism is running that high :o soda is bad... the sugar the caffiene..

Wurd!

if some one who has asthma smokes anything they can easily have an asthma attack. and an asthma attack could kill anyone. im just saying if someone had died from an asthma attack that they had gotten by smoking marijuana, or anything for that matter, the hospital or who ever would probably put an asthma attack for cause of death. statistics arent always what they seem to be.

[bombomb]

they are marijuana related death, but not from direct usages. Marijuana does not cause cancer for a few unknown reasons. thc kills the aging cell that create cancerous cells over time and no one smoke a pack or 1/2 each day like they do with cigs. if marijuna contains harmful substances like detergent or ddp, it is the grower or dealer fault.
