Are there carcinogens in marijuana

Answer 1

Yes you can because if you smoke any kind of tobacco too much you will have lung cancer and you can get many other side affects like burning and purple skin, yellow teeth ext......

**Only if you are a heavy smoker for 20-30 years, then there is a possibility of lung cancer because of the smoke. Marijuana has actually been said to kill certain cancer cells. DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE!

Answer 2

There very first research that found that THC kills cancer cells was a study done in 1974, and was paid for by the U.S. Government, the goal at first was for the researches to show how Cannabis hurts your immune system, surprisingly the researchers found no link to cannabis damaging the immune system and instead found that THC shrank cancerous tumors in lab mice, all research was recalled and destroyed by the NIDA, and further restriction were set in place to limit the amount of Cannabis research, except for the kind that showed that it was harmful.

Answer 3

Marijuana in itself, no.

Smoking marijuana can give you lung cancer, especially if you mix it up with tobacco. There are also beliefs that all foods grown with chemical pesticides can give you cancer, and you can include most marijuana in this category. Most growers use either chemical pesticides or fertilizers.

If you want to be sure, you need to grow your own weed (but it's illegal) and smoke it with a vaporizer, which is the smoothest way to smoke.

Answer 4

I've smoked enough weed to holla at snoop dog, and I'm only 23. I take breaks from smoking when it starts to get old smoking every day; then being sober is a high in itself. I get a hollow feeling when my minds more adjusted to being high than not when I stop but that only lasts a few days depending on how much you smoke. Weed is magic and won't do you wrong like hard drugs or beer, blazin!

Answer 5

No why would it, marijauna just a a pathetic plant that wont really harm because it doesnt contain any chemicals except the ones it was naturally given which all they do is get you high and that is it. On the other hand smoking any thing is bad; smoke is bad but not everthing is cancerous when it is smoked.

However, smoking anything - tobacco, marijuana, herbs, etc. - is always carcinogenic.

Answer 7

No, it has actually been shown to protect against cancer.
