Marijuana and Human Lungs Discussion.
This discussion is a very current topic and a lot of the data strongly suggests one overall health view, but more research must be completed. The research currently being done, and you are going to read/hear about people’s opinions on vaping/marijuana every week for years, but we can still talk about it now.
In WA it is a real concern since marijuana is legal. Just because it is legal, doesn’t mean it’s “safe”. I am not for or against “drug use”. I do feel strongly about a person making an informed decision, because as individuals we must make our own health choices. This is a great example of how your understanding of human A&P can allow you to critically think about a current health topic that you will hear and read the strong opinions of others and the media.
These articles are about marijuana use and E-cigarettes or vaping. I am grouping nicotine E-cigerettes with marijuana use since they are a related issue about lung health. A person can choose to vape or smoke.
Read one, a few, read them all… but if you post a comment, please reference which article you read and the question about it.
