Why blunts are bad for you: It’s not about the marijuana via TheGrowthOp
Here’s a word problem worthy of Euclid himself: Cannabis can be mildly addictive; tobacco is super addictive. What happens when you put them together? Blunts that are extra-super addictive.
What I do know, though, is that I didn’t just make up that syllogism . It’s an actual, scientific finding of a British research team that was published in the July 2016 issue of Frontiers in Psychiatry. Says lead author Chandni Hindocha, “[M]ixing tobacco with cannabis [blunts] lowers the motivation to quit using these drugs.”
The mechanics of cannabis usage matters because it correlates with both users’ desire to quit and their ability to do so. Compared with people who smoked their cannabis mixed with tobacco, the people who use both substances separately were 62 percent more likely to want to cut down on cannabis and 81 percent more wanted to use less tobacco. 104 percent more were seeking help to cut back on tobacco.
