before smoking weed guys you might wanna watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F37tuQ6OrqQ it is also scientifically proven from a 2005 study that cannabis reduces blood flow to the brain. https://www.aan.com/pressroom/home/pressrelease/250
I think every smoker know the dangers of smoking but they chose to ignore it due to their addiction.
I'm perfectly aware of the dangers of smoking. I smoke anyways because crossing the street can kill you, too.

Life isn't life without risks. I also have no problems with Candida or any fungal infections.

the thc in weed will weaken your immune system so you will be more susceptible to candida and other infection

Most studies I've read (and the NIH's current line) is that the jury is still out. In animal studies it seems to increase infection risk but I don't know of a human trial yet -- the human immune system has differences to other species, and so experiments in other species are not always directly applicable to Humans.

For example:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2964774/

Quote:After very first infusion of a dose 500 times smaller than that found safe in animal studies, all six human volunteers faced life-threatening conditions involving multiorgan failure for which they were moved to intensive care unit

Animal receptors and human receptors and number of receptors, etc, vary in significant ways. If someone understands molecular biology, who works in the immunology field could identify better which receptors THC targets and the effects on them I'd be interested to hear what they have to say.

https://www.aan.com/pressroom/home/pressrelease/250 here is an interesting study done on actual humans

We all die somedays, you just gotta choose the way you wanna die

you get more tar in weed smoke than you do from tabacco smoke. and recent research shows that weed damages your blood vessels 3 times more than tabacco does.

I'm going to be the guy that dies from rolling Biofreeze™ on my tongue on a Youtube gaming live stream, and then dies from asphyxiation.

I respect that lmao
I know what it does to me, and I know what could happen, but it doesn't put me off tbh

In all seriousness, I think people understand the risks and make a conscious decision to smoke anyway. The reward outweighs the risk, to them. Personally, I don't drink, smoke, or use any other kinds of substances, because in my mind, the risk outweighs the reward.
