Smoking vs. Vaporizing, Why Vaporize?
Burning tobacco through the process of combustion is
the oldest method known to man, however releasing the active ingredients
of tobacco does not have to occur with combustion. Rather, vaporizing
has the same effect as smoking, but does so without burning or combusting
the plant material.
By-products resulting from combustion include tar, ash, CO2, carbon monoxide and other gases & carcinogenic elements, many of which are known to
increase the likelihood of several cancers. In addition, because smoking
is basically breathing in fire, your lungs and throat are subjected to
high amounts of heat, which is damaging no matter what the substance is.
Combustion is also known to decrease and destroy a large percentage of
the active ingredients contained in the plant material. Studies have shown
that 25-50% of the active ingredients contained in the tobacco are destroyed by the act of combustion itself. So not only does smoking create many
unhealthy and unwanted side effects, but a large percentage of the plant
material's active ingredients are lost in the process.
In contrast, vaporizing warms the plant material to a temperature at
which combustion cannot occur. The resulting effect occurs with the release
of the active ingredient's in the form of a warm vapor. Since vaporizing
does not use a flame or fire to ignite the plant material, none of the
active ingredients are lost in the process. With every inhalation you're getting
no smoke and more of the natural substance itself. Vapor contains little
to no tar and is much cooler to inhale through ones' lungs, and pure vapor
does not have any carcinogenic elements. Vapor is a healthier substitute
to smoke!
The vapor itself, is slightly visible when exhaled and does not create
a smell like smoking does. In fact, there is no odor at all contained
in vapor! Also, because vapor contains no smoke, the natural tastes found
in the tobacco are more noticeably present.
Vaporizing allows you to enjoy the same, if not greater stimulation than
smoking creates, but without the unwanted side effects!
