I think I read somewhere that cannabis works as an antioxidant on the lungs or something and is good to smoke if you're quitting tobacco.

One study reported in 2008 concluded that, based on US data from the period 2000–2, adolescent-onset (defined here as ages 11–17) usage of hallucinogenic drugs (including psilocybin) did not increase the risk of drug dependence in adulthood; this was in contrast to adolescent usage of cannabis, cocaine, inhalants, anxiolytic medicines, and stimulants, all of which were associated with "an excess risk of developing clinical features associated with drug dependence".[57]

The opiate called 3-MF aka TMF aka 3-Methylfentanyl has a potency of 3200x that of morphine and a duration and nature of effect similar to heroin.

One gram of the stuff equals 5-10 lbs of decent quality street heroin and can be manufactured at a reagent cost of less than $20.
One kilo of this stuff has about as much opiate potency as 30 TONS of Opium or 3.3 TONS of street heroin.
An amount as small as 3 grain of salt worth of this stuff equals a gram of street heroin. If you inject it without a tolerance to the drugs effects 1/10 of one grain of salt is enough to put you on your ass.

Naltrexone is a potent opiate antagonsit.If however you take a very small dose along with your opiate of choice it removes any tolerance and gets you higher.We're talking small here though...like microgram small.

"The 4"-fluoro analogue of the 3R,4S,βS isomer of ohmefentanyl is the most potent opioid yet discovered, possessing an analgesic potency approximately 18,000-fold greater than morphine."

Famous mathematician Paul Erdős took amphetamine, and once won a bet from his friend Ron Graham, who bet him $500 that he could not stop taking the drug for a month.[64] Erdős won the bet, but complained during his abstinence that mathematics had been set back by a month: "Before, when I looked at a piece of blank paper my mind was filled with ideas. Now all I see is a blank piece of paper." After he won the bet, he promptly resumed his amphetamine habit.

Milk is a good source of precursors for N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine a.k.a. melatonin. Apart from its significance for the circadian rhythms it appears to modulate the immune response towards killing cancerous cells.

I know i talk about this all the time here on the shroomery, but Cannabis is actually a fantastic expectorant/lung cleaner...
Cannabis is the best natural expectorant to clear the human lungs of smog, dust and the phlegm associated with tobacco use. Marijuana smoke effectively dilates the airways of the lungs, the bronchi, opening them to allow more oxygen into the lungs. It is also the best natural dilator of the tiny airways of the lungs, the bronchial tubes. Statistical evidence indicates that people who smoke tobacco cigarettes are usually better off and will live longer if they smoke cannabis moderately, too.

THC Prevents MDMA Neurotoxicity in Mice.....
...THC prevented MDMA-induced-hyperthermia and glial activation in animals housed at both room and warm temperature. Surprisingly, MDMA-induced DA terminal loss was only observed in animals housed at warm but not at room temperature, and this neurotoxic effect was reversed by THC administration. However, THC did not prevent MDMA-induced hyperthermia, glial activation, and DA terminal loss in animals treated with the CB1 receptor antagonist AM251, neither in CB1 and CB1/CB2 knockout mice. On the other hand, THC prevented MDMA-induced hyperthermia and DA terminal loss, but only partially suppressed glial activation in animals treated with the CB2 cannabinoid antagonist and in CB2 knockout animals. Our results indicate that THC protects against MDMA neurotoxicity, and suggest that these neuroprotective actions are primarily mediated by the reduction of hyperthermia through the activation of CB1 receptor, although CB2 receptors may also contribute to attenuate neuroinflammation in this process.

Chocolate - Believe it or not is a drug!
"While chocolate is regularly eaten for pleasure, there are potential beneficial health effects of eating chocolate. Cocoa or dark chocolate benefits the circulatory system.[50] Other beneficial effects suggested include anticancer, brain stimulator, cough preventor and antidiarrhoeal effects.[51] An aphrodisiac effect is yet unproven."
"Studies suggest a specially formulated type of cocoa may be nootropic and delay brain function decline as people age."
"Chocolate is a mild stimulant to humans mainly due to the presence of theobromine.[94] It is much more potent for horses, and its use in horse racing is prohibited."

Yes but thats useless from the practical point of view. It is one of a list of isomers and would require complex chemistry using very specific isomers of reagents and/or separation techniques. What you get is a superpotent drug, yes, but potency drops like a brick at room temperature because of isomerization and the stuff is ultra short acting -
Whereas the 3-MF I spoke of is the racemic form made from ordinary reagents, does not isomerize and has the same duration of action as Heroin ie 3 hours rather than 3 minutes.
From the clandestine opioids pov 3-MF is one of the very best, biggest and best bang for the buck.
