Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7419205 Vaporizers are very nice but typically made of plastic and aluminum which might not be safe to inhale through when heated. I would go for a percolator bong/waterpipe. Use hemp wick instead of a lighter because there are fewer toxins. ORDO AB CHAO |

Same as exercising. So if you are a very inactive person who never exercises, then I'd start getting some daily exercise in your life - go on walks etc. As far as hardening of the arteries goes, Im not sure. Better to be safe and vape or stick with edibles. And start taking Omega 3s, extra virgin olive oil and CoQ-10 every day. |

Bong hits dude! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14021418 Bong hits dude! Polonium is a radioactive heavy metal that is found in the fertilizer called rock phosphate that is used for growing tobacco. The reason why people get lung cancer is because they inhale these "hot" particles that radiate you from the inside. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 29173803 Canada 09/05/2013 09:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'd rather take medical advice from GLP than a doctor. I also heard the pot reduces the hardening of arteries. With all the money that goes into cardiovascular research, you would think they would of came up with something to dissolve the plaque from arteries. |

Absolute death in a pack. Untouched tobbacco you buy in bulk is the safer bet, but inhaling any type of smoke is bad practice IMO. This coming from a guy who smokes out of a bong daily. Hypocrite, i know ANd it's Nicotine that can typically be blamed for cardie-vascular disease, as it hardens the arteries, making it more difficult to expand. WHen you get a blood clot, your hardened arteries cannot dilate. |

User ID: 46377527 United States 09/05/2013 09:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I smoke pot daily and I have a Have a high risk of coranary heart disease. Does smoking pot cause hardening of arteries like tobacco? Tried googling it but found no real answer. Maybe glpers can shed some light Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29173803 HAHAHAHAHAHA Smoking tobaki causes chd because of all the chemicals in them. the dank has never been proven to cause any diseases, with the exception of the addiction to feeling euphoric. Cigs are so different because of the chemicals and I am so sick and tired of everyone comparing the two when they obviously have done no research. If you are truly worried, just switch to a vaporizer or eat it. Absolutely no side effects.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29173803 The medical industry has totally hyped up the high blood pressure myth to get you on medicals. Your BP is within normal range ( i use to have a EMT license, but I am not dispensing medical advise, only my opinion). It's true that smoking elevates it temporary as previously indicated but it would be nothing worry about. If it was something like 160/105, I'd start to worry and simply do some breathing meditation (again, not medical advice but only my opinion). Also, cutting back on table salt helps, switch to Himalayan salt. OM! "The Soul is not restricted to this body, nor to the earth, nor to the solar system.
