Tinfoil will give you Alzheimer's sooner. Cannabis fights this though so that's a counter balance. Metal shavings and shit is never good and same with galvanized screens but those are stainless steel screens in those grinders.

Scrape the keif out. You could run a magnet over it to pick up any small shavings within the pile.

Plastic haha. We used apples and fruit. Imagine a hemp plastic bowl. If it burns it's ok, it's organic plastic you can inhale once, it will not harm you unlike plastic smoke.

What about the plastic ones?

Do they make grinders out of hemp plastic?

I have a few things made out of hemp but never seen a grinder?

your alzheimers comment...talk about misleading

Aluminum is in OTC antiperspirant... smoking is more likely to be a greater health hazard than potential aluminum dust.

Good point here...smoke from anything, including pot, is carcinogenic. Probably makes more sense to be worried about the potential cancer-causing smoke you're inhaling than the remote possibility that you might smoke a tiny speck of aluminum dust

Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the earths crust. It is the 3rd most abundant element after oxygen and silicon.

It is a common ingredient in anti-persperants and antacids. It is in the food you eat, and the water you drink. The average person consumes 5 -10 milligrams a day.

As for toxicity, you'd have to consume around 15 grams if ingested. The only people at real risk for aluminum toxicity are people that work in smelting plants where it is processed and they are exposed to large quantities of fumes. Proper ventilation and filtration has eliminated this in modern plants.

Aluminum oxidizes pretty quickly when exposed to oxygen. The oxide layer takes more heat to melt than the aluminum does. Your Bic lighter does not produce enough heat to melt aluminum, let alone the oxide layer.

In short, it's not an issue

And any smoke has associated health risks. Smoking cannabis has associated health risks. That's a fact. Edibles is the safest way to consume cannabis.

peace

certain studies have shown that extremely low doses of THC can have positive effects -- please stop misleading people by claiming that smoking a bunch of pot will cure alzheimers, you sound childish and you make us all look like a bunch of ignorant fools.


"Lung scrubbing green resin" aside ( ), as has been stated numerous times, smoke by its very definition is carcinogenic. That means that yes, pot smoke could conceivably cause cancer as that is what carcinogenic means -- "cancer causing." Whether cannabinoids might have anti-carcinogenic or bronchodilating effects that could counter-act this is certainly up for debate, but let's call a spade a spade and stop hiding our heads in the sand.

Do some legitimate research please, you're setting us all back with dumb shit like this. Folks like you who take a small truth and try to spin it into something it isn't do the legalization movement no favors and are a large part of why most intelligent, educated people still look at the majority of folks representing the movement as idiots.

Fools. Only those who use that word are fools.

This is a different smoke. We are not inhaling plastic, we are inhaling tumor shrinking plant material that sticks within the resin and scrubs. Do your research on the differences in smokes and what elements they contain.

We have done all the research. The gov't lied. They even hinder it.

I try not to name call and I suggest you do the same.

Your whole fucking lives are a lie. A big lie. Just wait mother fuckers god is coming.

this in and of itself is more than enough to tell me that you're another stoned rambling idiot who doesn't even have a rudimentary grasp on basic science. ALL SMOKE contains carcinogens -- smoke by its nature is carcinogenic, and it doesn't matter where the smoke comes from. Whether it has LESS carcinogens than, say, tobacco smoke is certainly an argument that can be made, but it doesn't change the basic principle that smoke = carcinogens. Period, the end.

As for "calling names" -- welcome to the internet, I suggest you get a thicker skin if you intend to stick around. I call em like I see em and you're pretty clearly out of touch.
