Would You Rather Eat, Drink, Smoke Or Vape Cannabis?

Now that the cannabis dream is opening up faster than you can imagine in havens like Colorado in America that allows both medical and recreational marijuana legally, let us understand methods of consumption better. Traditionally smoked in joints and pipes, we have now realized the evil impact of the smoke entering the lungs. There certainly exist healthier methods of consumption, more exciting too with edibles and drinks. Vape it if you will, to get the essence directly into the lungs, bypassing evil smoke.

One way or the other, cannabinoids enter the system, THC that causes the high. Sublingually under the tongue or gastro intestinally through the stomach, THC gets absorbed and assimilated. The new approach to cooking cannabis is very convenient since it can be included in any food recipe that contains lipids or fats. Ages ago, the previous generation consumed pot brownies at the Woodstock music festival.

Medical cases thus need not smoke cannabis and add to their woes. Convenient edibles that differ in taste and potency crowd the shelves, but you need to know precise details. Whaxy in partnership with Medical Jane provides information regarding responsible consumption.

Just like with alcohol that people consume in measured doses, so it should be ideal with cannabis. The problem is how to understand the levels of dosage. Colorado recommends 10 mg as a starting dose, perhaps like a peg of hard liquor.

Common sense indicates that eating marijuana would delay the high coming on. Smoking instantly zaps you through the lungs of course. Food processing in the stomach takes much longer. Thus, while smoking gets you high in minutes, eating may take as long as an hour or two. Drinking should be faster like the effects of consuming alcohol.

Would you still insist upon eating consumption, tempted by the large variety of winning food recipes in the dispensaries? You could cook them too!
The problem is to avoid excess. What happens after the initial 10 mg? Well, you wait for a long while to feel the consequences. If you feel quite comfortable and in possession of your senses, with a mild kick, you could take the second dose. Avoid overdoing it and don’t mix several drugs or alcohol, at least for the first time consumers. Make sure it is all legal stuff and in the company of some seniors or mentors.

Avoid driving under the influence and don’t get into violent arguments or fights! Sleep it off if necessary.
