Vaporization produces no combustion byproducts such as carbon monoxide, tar or other carcinogenic elements. Vapor is considerably cooler than smoke and less likely to damage lung tissue. Vaporization provides a purer, more concentrated effect and requires less of the sub- stance than if smoked or ingested. The substance is not degraded by digestive acids before entering the blood. There are no fillers or buffers as with pills. Vaporization acts quickly. The substance enters bloodstream more quickly than most methods. There is no danger of contaminated needles as in injections. Digital precision and the rapid onset of effect help to establish an exact dose specific to each user. The potential impact of digital vaporization is enormous. On a consumer level, over the next few years, digital vaporization will revolutionize both the aromatherapy and smoking cessation industries. On a pharmaceutical level, medical vaporization will significantly enhance the industries of drug delivery, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, biotech, and defense. Future generations will marvel at our barbaric practices of inhaling smoke and piercing our skin to receive medication The effects marijuana has on people is different for each individual……some people like it others dont……simple as that…….but the fact is that there is many POSITIVE things about marijuana…….and to the people who think that smoking is bad you are right….for inhaling anything that is being burned is full of toxins; however, that is why i vape…best thing in the world for spinach…..look up the Volcano vaporizers…..if not heres a lil insight into it……

Since that's where the BJJ culture came from, there's no wonder that there's a prevalent amount of marijuana usage among fighters. That's not the sole reason, obviously, but it's one of the contributing factors for sure. Bubba,

I'm not saying all Hawaiins burn but all the ones I know do! Marijuana is a natural medicine that millions of responsible taxpaying Americans smoke everyday. It relaxes the body and mind, it does not enhance your performance. But then there we have what you call PRIORITIES! If you are a pro athlete and you compete in anything that has rules, you have to follow those rules, and if that means giving up marijuana, so be it. It's not the end of the world, I would give it up for the chance to be a ufc fighter anyday. Too bad you get a more severe penalty for marijuana than steroids! Doesn't make sense! Gotta love Hawaii!

Not to mention killer pharmaceuticals and steroids. Weed is much less harmful then alcohol, which many fighters drink on a regular basis (read Chuck Liddell).

I train out of a world class gym and many of the fighters (ufc and pride vets) still smoke the months leading up to a fight, and they usually stop about month and half away from fight night.
