Vaping has quickly become a fast, cheap and discreet way to consume cannabis in the last few years, but as with any convenient new thing, studies are beginning to show that there may be a price to pay for that convenience.
Vaping cannabis is often touted as safer than smoking it. That's because vaporizers heat—but don't burn—herb, oil, or wax forms of cannabis inhaled through the device. However, vaping cannabis may actually be more dangerous than smoking it.
For one thing, most cannabis vapes contain many harmful ingredients.
In addition to the vitamin E acetate, many of them contain several non-marijuana-based ingredients that can harm your lungs when inhaled.
The FDA hasn't regulated vaping cartridges as tightly as other products, and ingredient lists don't always disclose everything in the product, so you don’t always know what’s in vaping fluids.
Some harmful ingredients used in vaping products include:
Heavy metals: The tiny coils that heat the vaporizer are made of various metals that can break down over time, so you could be inhaling heavy metals.
Carcinogenic (cancer-causing) compounds: Some chemicals/components used to suspend THC or make a “vapor” can release potentially dangerous, cancer-causing compounds when they’re heated.
Ultrafine particulates: While there are less than in pipes or cigarettes, vaping fluids do contain tiny particulates that, when inhaled, get deep into the lungs and cause irritation.
Ancient Creations ceramic water pipes however, provide a clean, smooth, and pure smoking experience every time. Our deep chamber provides excellent filtration and percolation, and the inside of each piece is glazed/sealed with food safe glazes, making them very easy to clean and maintain!
Smoking organically grown flower from a well made water pipe, and using a hemp wick to light it, is about the purest way to partake!
We believe that as vapes are more closely studied and time tested, it will become apparent that this OG method that served our parents and grandparents well for all those years is still the healthiest way to consume your cannabis.
Can't beat a good old fashioned bong :)
