For all those looking for ways to make smoking healthier, we’ve gathered some tips and tricks to help you get the healthiest high possible.
Water Pipes
Water pipes are a healthier alternative to pipes and joints because it uses a water filtration system. While the smoke is pulled through the water, the smoke cools down which eases the irritation on your lungs. The water also filters the smoke and catches unnecessary ash particles, leaving you with a cleaner smoke.
Ice
Adding ice to water pipes can help cool down the smoke even more and better filter the particles.
Natural Papers
If you like to smoke joints, using natural rolling papers is better because some rolling papers have bleaches and other unfriendly additives.
Edibles
Edibles are a safe alternative to smoking because it eliminates the smoke altogether. They are probably the safest option, the only drawback is the difficulty that comes with taking a precise dose and achieving the exact high you want.
Vape
Vaping is the healthiest way to smoke. Vapes don’t use actual flames; they only get hot enough to release the THC and don’t create harmful smoke.
Fun Fact: A 2015 study found that individuals who smoked a joint a day for 20 years showed no signs of adverse changes in lung health. It was also found that marijuana smokers have roughly the same chance of getting lung cancer as the rest of the population. How about that for some good news!
