VAPORIZER HEALTH BENEFITS

 GOOD FOR THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM:

If you consume cannabis, for whatever reason, it can have a negative effect on respiratory system. What your Portable Vaporizer does is heat the herbs to release the targeted cannabinoids, while still remaining cool enough to avoid combustion, and the associated toxins. Using a vaporizer will produce less respiratory problems than smoking methods.

RELEVANT STUDIES:

The following extracts are quoted from the "Harm Reduction Journal". They detail the many benefits you can achieve when you buy Portable Vaporizers in Australia to consume your cannabis.

 
"We examined self-reported respiratory symptoms in participants who ranged in cigarette and cannabis use. Data from a large Internet sample revealed that the use of a vaporizer predicted fewer respiratory symptoms even when age, sex, cigarette smoking, and amount of cannabis used were taken into account. Age, sex, cigarettes, and amount of cannabis also had significant effects. The number of cigarettes smoked and amount of cannabis used interacted to create worse respiratory problems. A significant interaction revealed that the impact of a vaporizer was larger as the amount of cannabis used increased. These data suggest that the safety of cannabis can increase with the use of a vaporizer. Regular users of joints, blunts, pipes, and water pipes might decrease respiratory symptoms by switching to a vaporizer."

STUDY OF CANNABIS  vs  NICOTINE SMOKE: 

 So what are the actual benefits to your health when you consume cannabis instead of a nicotine cigarette using the device referred to as a Herbal Vaporizer?

"More people are using the cannabis plant as modern basic and clinical science reaffirms and extends its medicinal uses. Concomitantly, concern and opposition to smoked medicine has occurred, in part due to the known carcinogenic consequences of smoking tobacco. Are these reactions justified? While chemically very similar, there are fundamental differences in the pharmacological properties between cannabis and tobacco smoke. Cannabis smoke contains cannabinoids whereas tobacco smoke contains nicotine. Available scientific data, that examines the carcinogenic properties of inhaling smoke and its biological consequences, suggests reasons why tobacco smoke, but not cannabis smoke, may result in lung cancer."

MEDICAL APPLICATIONS OF CANNABIS:

The extracts below are from the journal WHYFILES: 

"For many years, friends of marijuana argued that it had medical benefits, but the science was slippery -- when the government even permitted the research at all. In 1990, CB(1), the first cannabinoid receptor was discovered. Then endogenous cannabinoids -- body-made chemicals that activated the receptors -- were identified, and everything changed. The second cannabinoid receptor, CB(2), was found in 1993. While CB(2) resides mainly in the immune system, CB(1) is largely a nervous Nellie -- living on nerve cells. Roger Pertwee, a cannabis expert at the University of Aberdeen, says the receptor is "distributed widely throughout the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. They are present in their greatest concentration around the hippocampus, cortex, olfactory areas, basal ganglia, cerebellum and spinal cord. This pattern accounts for the effects of cannabinoids on memory, emotion, cognition and movement."

CANNABIS AND PAIN MANAGEMENT:

"The purpose of this systematic review was to find all of the randomized controlled trials of therapeutic use of cannabis in the management of human pain and then to obtain the best estimates of the efficacy of cannabis compared with either conventional analgesics or placebo. We also sought evidence of adverse effects. Our conclusion was that cannabinoids give about the same level of pain relief as codeine in acute postoperative pain."
