Marijuana and Cigarettes: The Different Effects
by Marijuana and cigarettes are dangerous. what are the differences and imilaritie among them for or body?
The debate over the effects of smoking cigarettes and smoking marijuana (cannabis) is still not resolved until now. There are still many parties that prohibit the consumption of marijuana, but there are also who support the legalization. Before you decide you want to side with, you should consider the different impact of consuming both.
In a recent study by the University of Alabama, United States, there are large differences in consumption of cigarettes and marijuana effects on the lungs. Smoking has a negative impact on the lungs, but the occasionally use of marijuana was able to increase the air flow rate and increase lung capacity.
Smoking can also increase the risk of lung cancer, heart disease and high blood pressure. On the other hand, marijuana can be inflated rheart attack because it increases blood pressure and heart rate. Marijuana also contains 50-70 percent higher levels of carcinogens than regular cigarettes. These substances cause cancer.
In addition to health effects, there are also psychological effects of cigarettes and marijuana. Marijuana makes consumers feel the euphoria for three hours, causing paranoia, panic, and anxiety. While smoking is ‘just’ a stress release alone. The similarity of the psychological impact of the two can only lead to dependence or even addiction.
If presented in stem, marijuana is more dangerous because it had a greater psychological impact. But if we summarized in a health context, both of them are not good at all for the human body which is not designed to inhale smoke.
