Realtalk on vaping cannabis vape refill thingies (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

So I need some realtalk by Lemmie's resident stoners and possibly medical professionals on the benefits and risks/harms of vaping cannabis refill things on the respiratory system (using a rechargeable vape pen/battery thingy at the lowest heat setting).

Give it to me straight docs, whats up and how long do I have to live if I use it infrequently but potentially daily in small amounts?

Vaping cannabis using refillable devices like the Argus A Pod Kit at low heat settings may reduce exposure to harmful byproducts compared to smoking, as it avoids combustion. However, frequent use can still pose risks to respiratory health, including potential irritation, inflammation, or long-term effects from inhaling vaporized oils and additives. While infrequent daily use in small amounts may lower these risks, it’s not without harm, especially for individuals with pre-existing lung conditions. Consulting a medical professional for personalized advice is crucial.
