    How are the health risks of vaping marijuana?

      (Guesstimating) Better than smoking, but as any doctor will tell you, putting anything that isn’t air into your lungs is worse than not putting anything that isn’t air into your lungs.

      I say this as someone who both smokes and vapes cannabis.

        Man, I dunno about you, but as someone who vaped and smoked weed a couple years back, the vaping was way worse for me. I would get these weird phlegmy coughs that I never got from smoking. I think part of it is that vapes hits feel so weak, so I would end up just power dragging my hits, causing this effect. There were days where I swear my lungs actually felt like they hurt.

        Stopped vaping and haven’t had this issue since. Anecdotal, but there you go.

          Complete opposite for me. When I vape, my throat feels “cleaner” vs when I smoke, which is when I get those phlegm-ey coughs.

        Vapor Genie and properly vape flower. 0 side effects.

          I use a Dynavap VonG and a Boundless Tera, and am probably going to upgrade to a ball vape.

          I really don’t think there are literally 0 side effects. It is still something that isn’t air going into your lungs.
