Debunking Popular Misconceptions About Cannabis
One of the most persistent myths in the cannabis community is that holding smoke in your lungs for longer periods will increase the effectiveness of THC absorption. This simply isn’t true, and here’s why.
When you inhale cannabis smoke, THC absorption happens almost instantaneously in your lungs. Within milliseconds, the active compounds enter your bloodstream through the alveoli (tiny air sacs in your lungs). Holding your breath longer than a couple of seconds won’t enhance the effects – it will only deprive your brain of oxygen and potentially expose your lungs to more tar and irritants.
At New Standard Edmore, we believe in educating our customers with factual, science-based information. Understanding how cannabis actually works in your body helps you make better decisions about consumption.
Here are some key facts about THC absorption:
- 95% of THC is absorbed within the first few seconds of inhalation
- Holding smoke longer only increases tar deposit in your lungs
- Regular breathing patterns are most effective for cannabis consumption
- Proper dosing matters more than inhalation technique
Instead of focusing on how long to hold your breath, we recommend paying attention to:
- Quality of the product
- Proper storage techniques
- Individual tolerance levels
- Consumption method preferences
