Is eating weed safer than smoking it?

Though smoking cannabis is not often considered harmful, research has shown that inhaling cannabis smoke can negatively affect health, similar to cigarette smoke.

Both cigarette and cannabis smoke contain toxins, such as ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, that may damage your lungs and increase the risk of illness

Currently, some research shows a weak link between smoking cannabis and certain types of cancer, although it does not appear to be significantly associated with lung cancer

Yet, scientists emphasize that it’s unclear whether or to what extent smoking cannabis influences cancer risk, as many available studies are of low quality, and confounding variables, such as cigarette smoking, affect study results

Smoking cannabis has also been associated with lung inflammation, bronchitis, and even impaired brain function

In contrast, edible cannabis products have not been shown to negatively affect lung health or cancer risk.

Therefore, if you’re concerned about the possible health risks associated with smoking cannabis, you may want to use edible cannabis products as an alternative.

However, because most cannabis research focuses on smoking cannabis, the long-term health implications of consuming edibles are still unknown.

Nevertheless, ingesting cannabis is potentially safer than smoking it. More research needs to be done to confirm this theory.
