RE: The Ongoing Cannabis Vape Issue
My thoughts on the subject are that:
- adulterated products were introduced into the supply on purpose by certain people or entities that stand to gain from this (regular tobacco companies specifically)
- they have been adding cutting agents to vape pens for years without much regulation or knowledge on the ingredients
I quit dabbing and vaping almost 100% in early 2018 after I started getting repeated asthma attacks, some in the middle of the night, which is terrifying. I had pain in my chest and lungs and was also getting light headed often. I attributed it to vaping at too high of a temperature, or impure product, but in the end I think that we just arent meant to inhale these kinds of things into our lungs (oils, terpenes, tars, flavor chemicals).
thanks for your comment! sorry to hear that you had such a negative experience with it, I have been lucky myself and haven't had any negative side effects like that and for me vaping is the best option for traveling, when i need to medicate discretely, works better for me than any other option. And studies have shown that vaping cannabis can be much healthier than smoking, and that many cannabis users who vape have less lung issues than those who smoke

you are right temperature and quality etc can play a big role and I was lucky enough to know someone close to me who was very educated on vaping to begin with and they helped me find a good quality product, lots of garbage out there from ppl who would rather make a quick buck than build a reputation by providing true HQ products! ✌️ .. just plain old joints mostly for me! 😄
