Hot Water in the Bong... The Revolution?

hot water & ice is bad for your lungs...mostly ice. You actually smoke water vapor when you use ice which can put water in your lungs...very bad. I think this hot water has the potential to become revolutionary in the smoking world after more research & widespread experimentation is complete. I have never tried myself, but after reading this thread I'm game. It would be amazing to find out that filling your water pipe with almost-boiling hot could prove healthier for you. Maybe we could even discover a new way to use Cannabis for sore throughts & other illnesses.

Yes, ice creates water vapor which should not be ingested. I've always felt the ice bongs to be horrible and completely unnecessary.

out.

really? could someone get some scientific research on this or something?

I can't see a little bit of water vapor when you smoke being that bad. I mean we're exposed to water vapor all over the fin' place.

+1 Considering we breath water out of our lungs as part of respiration I dont think that a few rips are going to cause any damage.

water vapor increases with cold water... think about it.... your lungs are toasty warm inside and by putting very cold air which has just passed through a water medium will cause EXTRA condensation to form in the lungs... no? I think you are far better off using hot or room temp water with NO ice. Ice cubes will give off vapor just by themselves.

out.

it's all heresay at this point though. I'd like to see a real scientific journal specifically stating that water vapor damages our lungs.

If you are so worried about your lungs wouldn't it be a better idea to not smoke at all?

I mean water vapor or not smoke in your lungs is not the healthiest thing you can do. It doesn't matter which is worse they both aren't great.

Wouldn't it cause the same damage as being outside on a 25 degree day in the winter??

there's less humidity below freezing

well by all that logic, wouldn't the hot bong release the most water vapor, AKA steam? Wouldn't that make a humidifier dangerous? I highly doubt that a little water vapor is going to damage a human respiratory system with either option. I think either way you go, the method that is most soothing to the throat should be the winner. hot bong!

No I don't think so. Do you walk around inhaling like you are hitting a bong? (passes out in snowdrift). you breathe very very deeply when you do bong hits.

Pops...do your own darn research

out.

hah I'm in no mood to research this.

I just believe it's perfectly harmless until someone brings the proof that it isn't

You must work for Big tobacco

out.

hah good one lol. but they don't listen to any research proposed to them I expect . .

That's how it is done..they do the research.. and throw tons of money at disproving other research.

You can trust us...

Fuck a bong roll a blunt, G Style.

I once made a blunt attatchement for a bong... really gnarly flavor, but truly did the trick
