Yeah all combustion of plant material will produce known carcinogens, but it seems the oils in MJ may well have anti-cancer effects. As to whether the goodies in MJ smoke outweigh the baddies on the cancer front, well I really doubt it, but it doesn't seem to be anywhere near as carcinogenic as tobacco smoke. After all, nicotine, unlike cannabinoids, is a toxin.Raf007 said:I did not see that documentary, but we all know now that smoking by itself can produce cancer, whatever you combust....
But hey, when you can eat, vape or dab your oil to dodge the carcinogens altogether, the cannabinoids may be of net cancer benefit. I have a link in my sig to a study suggesting that (mind you that wasn't the purpose of the experiments). It's almost at the bottom of that page - 3.6 THC effects and total toxicity.
