If THC stays in your system for weeks, then how come I don't stay stoned for weeks? Once it is released into my body when I smoke it, I get high obviously, but what makes that high go away? Wouldn't it be cool if you were high as long as there was THC in you? haha
good question and i do not know the answer
I do, let's quote an FAQ off any pro cannabis site.
In fact let me get a link from this site!:D
It's a conspiracy.
that is a good question i dont know the answer
Doesn't marijuana stay in your fat cells and keep you
high for months?
No. The part of marijuana that gets you high is called
`Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol.' Most people just call this
THC, but this is confusing: your body will change
Delta-9-THC into more inert molecules known as
`metabolites,' which don't get you high. Unfortunately,
these chemicals also have the word `tetrahydrocannabinol' in
them and they are also called THC -- so many people think
that the metabolites get you high. Anti-drug pamphlets say
that THC gets stored in your fat cells and then leaks out
later like one of those `time release capsules' advertised
on television. They say it can keep you high all day or
even longer. This is not true, marijuana only keeps you
high for a few hours, and it is not right to think that a
person who fails a drug test is always high on drugs,
either.
Two of these metabolites are called
`11-hydroxy-tetrahydrocannabinol' and
`11-nor-9-carboxy-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol' but we will
call them 11-OH-THC and 11-nor instead. These are the
chemicals which stay in your fatty cells. There is almost
no Delta-9-THC left over a few hours after smoking
marijuana, and scientific studies which measure the effects
of marijuana agree with this fact.
We happy? Vincent.. we happy?
Yeah.. we're happy.
im happy :thumbsup:
Instead of reading that, i'm going to keep speculating
alright i did read what you posted, and it says...
"There is almost no Delta-9-THC left over a few hours after smoking marijuana"
and even before that it says that Delta-9-THC is what gets you high..
so if thats true, that there is almost none left in our bodies a few hours later, then how do we build a tolerance to it? If there isn't any left in us shouldn't we be able to get just as stoned the next day, and the next, and the next...
*shrugs* whooooo knowwwwwws???? :confused: :thumbsup: :dance:
