How quick does THC enter the body?
    #5643044 - 05/17/06 06:24 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Lately I read this article that says all the THC in the smoke is rapidly absorbed into the body within the first 2-8 seconds of inhalation. And it stated that holding the smoke any longer just does more damage to lungs seeing though as the tar, and the other carcinogens just have time to linger in the lungs. Is this true that you really only need to hold your breath like 10 seconds max?

Im pretty sure its true. Many people claim that holding hits in for over 10 seconds makes you higher, but thats just because you are depriving your brain of oxygen, making you dizzy etc.

The majority of different articles and such that I have read have all said around 6-8 seconds. After that the THC uptake from the smoke in your lungs starts to have diminishing returns (aka less absorbtion per second). This means that technically it is not worth it to hold longer for 8 seconds as you would get less THC uptake and more damage to your lungs.

*shrug* well, I know that it does absorb quickly... but on the other hand I've found that taking a slow hit from my vaporizer and caspering it gets me higher off a 0.3g than I've ever really been without having to go through a few grams...

Actually after looking over my reply again I seem to remember someone saying on this forum that THC is only absorbed while moving... So if this is true then yes, I can see how the THC would be absorbed in 10 seconds max easily, but at the same time it would have to be moving for the entire 10 seconds

With a vaporizer I could see it very worthwhile to hold it in as long as possible because there wouldn't be as much damage to your lungs. I really want to get one of those.
