Chronic marijuana smokers show evidence of decreased lung capacity

[Major Tom]

Well passed all the bitching and accusations of propaganda and bad spelling,

My chest still hurts and still cough up tar balls and I even use a vaporizer that suppose to be the healthiest.

Then don't smoke, man.If you really think it's so bad for you, don't smoke.Nobody was bitching at you, you seem just a tad sensitive.If you don't like pot, and you think it's making you sick, then stop smoking.Real simple.

Do you think maybe you might be allergic?
It can also take a while for the lungs to clean up from smoking.

 

[Jester88]

umm no hes coughing up tar balls i think thatd be the the cause...
lik i said just cut back or quit for a while
(not an option for me) so i just cough all the flem up that needs to be or i can, and live with it lol it usually passes after a little time...

like i said lungs heal i think...

A study came out last summer (ish) about the combined effects of marijuana smoking and cigarette smoking. They began with the hypothesis that the combined exposure of smoking marijuana on top of cigarettes created more serious lung problems. I was really interested in the results because my husband smokes both and I wanted to "make a point." The results of the study were eveidently a huge surprise because the research showed that cigarette smokers who also smoked pot had healthy lungs. Maybe all that coughing keeps the tar from attaching

think it might have something to do with weed killing off the bad cells that make cancer

i don't cough up tar balls. =/

Inhaling smoke isn't good for the lungs, it's that simple. That's why you should use a vaproizer.

Yep the study showed that smokers of both cannabis an tobacco had healthier lungs than those people who just smoke tobacco. Good stuff Oh and that 20 year old cannabis and lung cancer study? Well of the over 200 people who participated in that study none of them have developed lung cancer still smoking the herb heavily.

Sounds like you should see a doctor, I smoke a lot of weed and have never coughed up tar. I vape too and it is nothing like smoking . . .

Oh and they were not accusations bro this is propaganda I'm still waiting for you to link the studies that have shown this . . . .

Its a government plant writing articles to try and persuade the people and thwart our efforts.

i guess that kinda ties in to fdd2blk's answer ehy

What's your opinion of this articular?
Thanks
Tom

Chronic marijuana smokers show evidence of decreased lung capacity and chronic bronchial irritation. Marijuana also may contain the fungus Aspergillus. Studies suggest that serious lung infections may result from inhaling this organism. Because chronic marijuana smoking may impair your body's immune system, your lungs may be more susceptible to this and other infections.

Most of the people in question aren't going to be worried about that because they have bigger medical problems. For the rest of us, it should be vaped or ingested orally, not smoked int he first place.

Smoking marijuana often increases lung capacity, because it's a breathing exercise, as long as you don't destroy your lungs completely.
Also, there are medical benefits from smoked marijuana which vapor cannot provide.

If you smoke anything over a long period of time your lung capacity will decrease... Anyone who doesn't know that is very naive.

Yeah, that is why you don't over do it.
Unless it doesn't decrease your lung capacity, or you don't care if it does.
