Marijuana is increasing in popularity for both medicinal and recreational purposes all over the world. Although cannabis has been around for thousands of years, some states are just now starting to legalize it. Unfortunately, North Carolina still has a long way to go.
Vaping is a relatively new way to consume medical marijuana. There has been a bit of controversy over which is better for you: smoking or vaping. In this blog, we will talk about the pros and cons of vaping marijuana.
Pros of Vaping Marijuana
One of the most notable upsides of vaping marijuana is that cannabis vapes are easily concealable and convenient. If you are looking for a discreet way to consume cannabis, vaping is a great option.
Also, vaping does not produce smoke, rather it produces vapor. Therefore, when you vape, you are not getting the dangerous carcinogens you get from smoking burned flower. Smoking weed can severely affect your respiratory health, making vaping a healthier option.
Vape products offer better and stronger flavors, whereas most flower tastes the same. Also, vape products tend to give you more bang for your buck, so to speak.
Cons of Vaping Marijuana
Now let’s get into the cons of vaping cannabis. First of all, the initial cost may seem a bit discouraging because you will need to purchase the battery and a cartridge. However, the battery is rechargeable, so when you run out you just need a new cartridge.
There is also the downside of having to charge the battery regularly. If your vape dies, you will have to charge it to use it again, which can become irritating. Some people also claim that the effects of vaping marijuana are not as potent as smoking it.
Although vaping may be healthier than smoking, there are still some health risks associated with it. Vapes tend to contain thinning agents which can break down into carcinogenic compounds.
