howdy mah friends how are you holding up all chillaxing I hope, say hey I am here wondering if any of you guys has any accurate information regarding the problems that marijuana cause to the users who had been smoking for several years and I mean problems with the respiratory conducts damage to the upper respiratory tract, including bronchi, blocking airflow and forcing the lungs to work harder, or wheezing, cough, or reduced number of small airways responsible for carrying oxygen and clean waste products from the blood vessels in the lungs , I have been looking on the internet and I cannot find anything regarding enphisema caused by marijuana or some other sort of lung problems associated to heavy smoking. My point here is can I die for smoking pot every day for the rest of my life ? or will I get an enphisema ? or pulmonary bulla ?

yes you can die, yes you can get emphysema. Planning on smoking anything everyday for life is likely to lead to a reduced lifespan.

Same as tobacco but slightly less so. Unless you smoke your weed with tobacco of course, then it’s exactly the same.

Same as tobacco but many times worse in fact. 7 times as much tar in weed than tobacco.

This is also a serious condition

What is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)?

and I have seen people with this condition (of which they will die) smoking whilst sat RIGHT NEXT to their (EXPLOSIVE) oxygen masks attatched to their oxygen cillender!!!!!

Why dont you ask you GP or local drug team if they have any info – alternativley look on google scholor or places like the lancet or nursing times archieve for research articles if you want to know propper outcomes rather than annecdotal info

One of my mates is convinced smoking weed cleans out your lungs of the bad stuff from tobacco. He’s no scientist though so i wouldn’t want to risk my life on his theory’s. In fact he’s really stoned most of the time so maybe thats why he thinks that.

I’ve got mates who belive this, it’s not true and just made up years ago by pro legalise weed bods. There’s enough reaserch out there now that blatently sais it’s a load of bollox.

I’ve had a nasty cough that i’ve probably had since i was 14-15 from smoking cigs and canabis ( i used to smoke both from quite young so it’s hard to tell what did it … probably a mixture as i still cought now i only smoke cigs but not as much).

Isn’t true at all. My stoner mates kid themselves over this, it is a myth I’m afraid. Just like unicorns, leprechauns and skinny Americans.
