Isn't smoking anything bad for your health?

Then following it with a bag of cookies ain't too good either.

But yeah this isn't a scientific study, it's one person who sounds nuts anyway.
And injecting the stuff?! Caffeine and nicotine will pretty much kill you if you do that.


Living in Seoul is more hazardous to your lungs than living in a city with clean air and toking up a joint once in a while. Smoking everyday or multiple times a day may have an affect on your lungs, yet pure herb doesn't have the added poisons of cigarettes. The lungs also heal themselves in a manner no other organ can heal itself. A cigarette smoker at 40 can quit and have almost restored lungs in 10 years.


Not quite true. Even smokers who quit have substantially higher risk factors for lung cancer than people who have never smoked. Also, the "added poisons" in cigarettes are not the problem. Smoking Natural Spirits is no healthier for you than smoking Marlboros, whatever the hippies want to tell themselves.

There's no reason to smoke anything. Get a vaporizer. I promise, you will never regret it.

From what I've read, the main reason why cig. smoke has SUCH a high lung cancer rate while the lung cancer-pot link is 'less strong' is because nicotine surpresses natural death of cancer cells in the lungs. That allows them to grow and multiply.
