can i get cancer from this?
Posted on Mar 11, 2010 under cancer news and reports |I have a metal piece that i smoke mj out of. I’m not asking about getting cancer from the marijuana, but can is it bad to smoke out of the metal pipe. I’m only using a bic lite, so i don’t think it actually burns any fumes off the metal when i use it, but just curious.
It’s not like a home made crackpipe. I bought it from a headshop.

Possibly, if the way you are smoking it increases the amount of smoke and tar you are taking into your lungs. I would assume that a bong would decrease the amount of toxins you are ingesting.
FYI though, MJ smoke contains more toxins than cigarette smoke. But that doesn’t mean you are guaranteed to get cancer or not either way.

It’s better than plastic…but if you’re concerned about your health, I’d say not smoking + not smoking out of metal, plastic, etc will help with that. I couldn’t help myself…sorry
