Someone who knows allot about lungs

[Flesh420]

Hey i was wondering how bad it would be on ones lungs if they smoked weed once a week and nothing else. And it what if any effects would it have if u used to smoke cigs and weed everyday then suddenly quit smokeing cigs and just smoke weed once a week.

Anyways i would rather someone who know a little bit about the human lungs to answer this because im in a situation. Ive been looking to an answer to this for last few day on the net and asking a shit load of people and all the answers i get are all different so im just asking because i want someone who knows what there talking about to answer this.

Thank you

I dont know a lot, but I was told once you quit smoking your lungs start to kind of rebuild themselves..I don't know if that's right, I heard it in DARE lol.

well see ive heard that too. But id figured it wouldnt be bad on ones lungs if they smoked once a week cuz they arnt constantly abusing there lungs. Like they would like smokeing cigs and stuff like that.

Thanks for your input though

i have been smoking for 12 years straight.recently i got a chest x-ray.the doctor said i have lungs of a non-smoker.after i told him that i smoke bud a lot he said no way.i dont use papers.i think that you can be ok.just drink lots of water and eat your fruits and veggies and youll live as long as you want

i have two do i qualify?

Let me say this

I used to smoke tobacco and after a while i felt the damage it did to my lungs, now i smoke marijuana and only marijuana no tobacco, i don't feel no damage to my lungs, i'm fit. I smoke daily.

Weed don't damage your lungs too much IMO

yeh damn straight your lungs start repairing themselfs almost straight away after you smoke(until u smoke again)
there was a diagram in school, it was either around 5 or 10 years, i cant remember, but your lungs are basically good as new
and if youre smoking once a week well.. most people smoke every day and theyre living, so it can only be a shit load better aye? but of course you cannot accurately predict something like that, even doing it just once a week doesnt mean its good for you does it?
just fucking toke!

Well i firmly belive that weed isnt really all that bad on ur lungs. Since allot of my feinds have asthma and it helps them. But i dont want to ask my doctor about my idea because he would probly flip out or something.

[robert42]

also when u quit smoking your lungs become more spongier and in theory you can become fitter.

weed does affect the lungs as it is a pollutant to your lungs, but it isnt a carcinogen..if that makes sense.....weed doesnt cause you to develop cancer or black lung type diseases if that is what you are asking...anything not air you put into your airway hurts your lungs, that is common sense, but it is the amount you are worried about, and marijuana dosent kill you......

hope this helped some and yes, i am a healthcare professional...

in laymans terms i guess, happy toking...

Flesh420, if you have COPD, any smoke is very bad for your lungs. I can do research for you, but that's what a nursing student told me.
