RP said all smoke is carcinogenic. Plus marijuana is estrogenic.
He doesn't post here anymore.Smoke weed every day, 'twas the commandment of Nate Dogg.
Got it. You know where I can find that article?
I was thinking of switching to edibles but if marijuana is estrogenic then even edibles wouldn't be healthy
This is fairly common information about the formation of Acetaldehyde from tobacco and marijuana during their combustion when smoking, which is a carcinogen and toxic to humans. Here are some from the wiki:
"Tobacco smoke:
Natural tobacco polysaccharides, including cellulose, have been shown to be the primary precursors making acetaldehyde a significant constituent of tobacco smoke. [51] [52] It has been demonstrated to have a synergistic effect with nicotine in rodent studies of addiction. [53] [54] Acetaldehyde is also the most abundant carcinogen in tobacco smoke; it is dissolved into the saliva while smoking."
"Cannabis smoke:
Acetaldehyde has been found in cannabis smoke. This finding emerged through the use of new chemical techniques that demonstrated the acetaldehyde present was causing DNA damage in laboratory settings. "

I honestly don’t know, because I’m not a smoker and have never smoked on an ongoing basis, but I think that if there is some degree of dependence and it is difficult to quit smoking immediately, then you can first reduce the number of cigarettes to a minimum and partially switch to vape, or immediately completely go to vape with a complete rejection of cigarettes, and so over time throw cigarettes, and then the throw vape too. Probably with such a strategy the harm will be minimized.Damn.. smoking was my fav method. I'm weaning off but insomnia has prevented me from quitting fully. Any supps help with the withdrawal?

I think if there is an addiction, then completely quitting smoking is stress, and in any other stressful situation, the body will crave cigarettes or marijuana again and this is also stress, so here the main strategy is to replace the more harmful with the less harmful. :)
I don’t know about supplements, is there anything that raises dopamine and lowers serotonin? It's certainly not weed, but for relaxation you can try the banal combination of gelatin (glycine) and magnesium glycinate .
