Smoke = acidic, Vape = ???

Oh I see the liver thing came from Dr. Jean Lud Cadet of the National Institute on acidic Drug Abuse, part of the National Institutes of Health. Doesn't mean I'm dumb lol. Just means I read. Ok I understand that a flame will separate the thc so it psychoactive, but where does that acidic C02 molecule go? In the same air your smokeing along with the delta thc. I just figured MAYBE.... You burn it off by heating it maybe it will dissipate and not be consumed later when you actually smoke it. Decarboxylation removes the carbon breaking apart the CO2 from the thc.
lol wow I was thinking I wouldn't have to explain a very very simple concept known to practically everyone who's taken a basic science class.


WE EXHALE CO2. it doesn't go in and give us acid reflux!!!! , we exhale it every fucking breath.

and you are a dumbass if you are believing studies coming out of the national institute on drug abuse about cannabis. only listen to independent studies that haven't been funded by ridiculously biased sources.

OK got it! dont believe scientists that work at a college and listen to you! Never said anything about acid reflux. Exhale being the key word there. Its not like our bodies consume it. What ever tho, if you want to bash me for trying to help with a "maybe try this" and see if its less harsh on his condition your not worth trying to convince. So Im done. What have you said to help the OP? Nothing! You've just bashed everyone else suggestions. I tal wick, bowl instead of joint, eat less "american junk food". Wow great advice Einstein. He obviously has to change his diet to continue living because of his condition. He's just looking for help to still be able to enjoy his favorite plant. None of what you said helps him. At least I tried.

well look I was coming from the perspective that this plant is the last thing that's gonna fuck with him in this world so stop trippin. that's literally all I meant, no bashin meant.

correct!! but your information was misleading and to me incorrect, i dont see bashing nor am i bashing you, i think dude is just trying to state facts and honestly hemp wick would be more of a help to the guy than decarboxylation (which happens when you smoke) unless his plan is to cook with it... why is it always a pissing match on this site... must be some schgag floating around everyone is so tense..
SMOKE DANK!!!!!!

Ok I understand poplar. No hard feelings even though you did call me lets see.... dumb, dumbass and other condescending remarks (about simple shit everyone with a joint in there pocket and a highschool diploma knows) directed at me. Maybe next time don't be rude about it and we wont have these misunderstandings. As for Smokey.... this isn't false information imho. I dont think the Dr is just saying these things just to hurt the med marijuana cause. I believe it is true that marijuana is acidic. The Dr says Levels of a protein called apolipoprotein C-III were found to be 30 percent higher in the marijuana users compared to the others. This protein is involved in the body's metabolism or chelation of triglycerides — a type of an acidic fat found in the blood — and higher levels cause increased levels of triglycerides (acid bound fat). This percent was with heavy smokers not just weekend tokers. Again I was just trying to help I dont think I did any harm in my "maybe". Yes Decarb happens when you smoke but it still doesn't separate and get rid of the extra acid molecule that is attached to thc if you just smoke it all up as it burns off.

Oh dear Jesus...poplars has explained it a million times to you...is CO2 at high temperature a liquid, solid or gas? Now stop for a minute and contemplate where the CO2 might go when your weed is decarboxylated from being heated by smoking...

The good old Delta-9 has a neutral pH btw.

Read all of populars posts again, he explained it all to you.

pot smokers should include a lot of basic (high ph) food to their diet. beets is a good one, but look out. ya shit ya pants mon, if ya eat too many.

Delta 9 THC has a neutral pH...did you not read? It's the precursor to THC that's acidic.

And btw, advising people to eat an abundance of high pH food is bad form, blood has a ph of like 7.3-7.4ish, any more base and it has to work to promote homeostasis.

show me something that says a diet high in foods with a PH such as beets is bad for your health

instead of attacking that guy I thank him for his suggestion to keep us healthy

smoke is definitely acidic tho.....due to the various combustion byproducts mixing with water vapor....and i would go ahead and guess that vaping is less acidic due to n ( or minimal )o combustion byproducts
