Is smoking weed bad?!


Question: Is smoking weed bad!?
what are the long term, negative effects of gettin blazed about once every 5 days!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I wouldn't consider smoking marijuana bad!. There are only a few downsides to smoking pot!. Marijuana use can impair memory, coordination and balance, and can later lead to respiratory promblems similar to tobacco users!. The only problem I myself have experienced is weight gain, from the munchies!. Hahahaha!. Other than that, weed is so great!

Anywho, if you're only smoking it up once every five days you should be fine!. If the longterm effects do take a toll on you, they won't be as hard as someone who smokes all day, everyday!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Question: What Are the Long-Term Effects of Marijuana!?

Answer: While all of the long-term effects of marijuana use are not yet known, there are studies showing serious health concerns!. For example, a group of scientists in California examined the health status of 450 daily smokers of marijuana but not tobacco!. They found that the marijuana smokers had more sick days and more doctor visits for respiratory problems and other types of illness than did a similar group who did not smoke either substance!.

Findings so far show that the regular use of marijuana or THC may play a role in cancer and problems in the respiratory, and immune systems!.

Cancer
It is hard to find out whether marijuana alone causes cancer because many people who smoke marijuana also smoke cigarettes and use other drugs!. Marijuana smoke contains some of the same cancer-causing compounds as tobacco, sometimes in higher concentrations!. Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per day may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day!.

Tobacco smoke and marijuana smoke may work together to change the tissues lining the respiratory tract!. Marijuana smoking could contribute to early development of head and neck cancer in some people!.

Immune System
Our immune system protects the body from many agents that cause disease!. It is not certain whether marijuana damages the immune system of people!. But both animal and human studies have shown that marijuana impairs the ability of T-cells in the lungs' immune defense system to fight off some infections!.

Lungs and Airways
People who smoke marijuana regularly may develop many of the same breathing problems that tobacco smokers have, such as daily cough and phlegm production, more frequent chest colds, a heightened risk of lung infections, and a greater tendency toward obstructed airways!. Cancer of the respiratory tract and lungs may also be promoted by marijuana smoke, since it contains irritants and carcinogens!.

Marijuana smokers usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer, which increases the lungs' exposure to carcinogenic smoke!. Thus, puff for puff, smoking marijuana may increase the risk of cancer more than smoking tobacco does!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Course its bad for you, but then so is alcohol!.

Smoking it every now and then wont matter, but if you become an addit then thats a different story!.

A close relation of mine started smoking weed casualy when he was 16, and he became an addict!. He would crave it and was really angry and stuff to people when he didnt have any!.It completly changed him and even made his daughter afraid of him!.

He got help and now hes been clean for 2years!.

It just messes with your brain!.
Scientists think that lots of weed can make you crazy, not as much as someone on P, but still pretty weird!.It messes with you and can totally change a personality!.

But every now and then i would say isnt bad!.Its just like drinking alcohol every weekend i think!.
