I've heard this many a time so i'm assuming it's true?
By how much?

I heard something about this although I'm not too sure how true. The argument was you get the munchies because you are burning calories much faster then you would if you were not smoking. As for exact amounts I have no idea.

wouldn't that help you if your a body builder or something like that then? Cause, i mean, the faster you burn carbs/protein etc. the faster you can build up.

no it doesnt increase metabolism, this is a myth
it helps body builders and such because it blocks the burn of fatige and lets them work harder and longer without getting exhausted, basically its a painkiller

Heh, i've always wondered this myself. Either faster metabolism or more waste (crapping out all the shit i eat) I'm of healthy build but can drop and gain weight really quick, when i get stoned i eat alot and seem to never gain, yet at christmas time when i'm equally sinful with my eating habits i do gain despite it being healthier than my stoned binges.
Maybe it slows my digestion or renders my digestion weak so i just crap alot of what i eat when stoned.

I think it does increase metabolism. Ive noticed that when I routinely smoke, even if I slam on food. I still lose weight. I always thought smoking weed would help gain weight, but found that to be a myth.
now that Ive quit smoking, I eat less and ive managed to gain 5lbs in the past 3 weeks.
it may not be true for everyone, but that seems to be the case with me at least.

there is no basis to the claim that it speeds up metabolism f lanenips's theory about it is much more plausible, because it acts as a laxative so your body doesnt absorb all the food, and you get less energy
like bolemics do, you expel the food before your body absorbs a lot of the calories, except it isnt as bad for you cause ur not puking it up
ive wondered about the metabolism thing myself cause i lost weight when i started smoking, but i looked it up and its a myth

Hmm I cant really tell if I shit more when I smoke or not. Either way we both agree that smoking has caused us both to lose weight.

well ive also been cutting down a lot on what i eat cause i need to lose the weight anyway, but the metabolism thing is just wishful thinking
yes when i have a body high going, i take HUGE shits, no kidding, way more than when i havent smoked, i also keep my smoking to a minimum, usually just on the weekend, so i keep my tolerance relatively low on top of being somewhat of a lightweight already
indica is more laxative than sativa, and i prefer the knock-you-on-your-ass high to the wheee im flying high of sativa

yeah it can help you increase your caloric intake a lot, but you'd have to constantly be eating

but do you workout hard everyday, eat 2g of protein for each pound of your weight, and basically eat twice as food much as you normally do?
