The Science of Vaporization
From the microchip to polymer plastics to vaccinations to the World Wide Web technological advancements achieved in the last century touch nearly every aspect of our
lives. Yet we've only begun to realize the potential of such astounding progress in
science, industry and medicine.
Each advancement opens the door to new avenues of
discovery, new possibilities for a higher quality of life. Undeniably, human beings in the
21st century enjoy more recreational and healthy living choices than ever before.
Despite this ground swell of advancement, however, certain critical areas remain
virtually untouched. Our methods of recreational drug delivery, most especially smoking, are one such example. Burning tobacco is an incredibly hazardous way to obtain
the benefits of nicotine. Yet, until very recently no progress has been made in an
alternate delivery system.
Despite the past decade's considerable growth in the development of bio-engineered medications, our methods of delivering these or any substances
to the body outside of a medically supervised environment remain limited and imprecise. For more on this, see the Addendum, but for now keep in mind that the hypodermic syringe predates the American Civil War and the first record of smoking is traced to
the Mayans in 600 AD.
Whether homeopathic remedies or synthesized medications, our
current drug delivery techniques are basic, archaic, and verging on obsolete.
Your doctor may deliver remedies via pills, syringes, skin patches, or particle inhalers. You may ingest herbal substances by swallowing raw or extracted plant material
or by drinking tea brewed from suitable leaves.
We can absorb certain effects through
the skin by way of a poultice or salve, or we can inhale the desired essence through the
smoke of the burning plant. Yet each of these methods has limitations and in some
cases, outright dangers. It's been nearly four decades since technology has advanced
enough to let us clearly see the hazards of taking a substance through the inhalation of
its smoke; however, our advanced technologies have yet to be applied to an alternative
method of Viably delivering these substances directly from the plants themselves.
This is the 21st century! We can manufacture a human heart, yet we're chained to the
carcinogenic byproducts of combustion in order to receive the desired herbal benefits.
Not any more. Inhalation (Phyto means "plant").
Vaporization is a substance delivery method purer than smoking, quicker and more
direct than swallowing pills, and painless compared to needles. It is the new revolution
in substance delivery and is poised to strengthen and enrich the medical, homeopathic,
and smoking industries.
