Inhalant abuse (commonly called "huffing") is the intentional inhalation of chemical vapors to attain a mental "high" or euphoric effect. A wide variety of substances, including many common household products, are abused by inhalers.

Unless you meant for a person to exhale loudly.

Why is your breath cold when you blow but warm when you huff?

When you blow, you are exhaling air from your lungs, which is warm because it comes from your body. When you huff, you are exhaling air from your mouth or throat, which has had a chance to cool down slightly before exiting. This difference in temperature between the air from your lungs and the air in your mouth/throat causes the sensation of cold or warm breath.


How do you measure the staleness in bread?

I was looking for the answer to this question as well but until I actually saw it written down here I hadn't come up with any good ideas. Since there is no commonly known way to measure staleness the closest thing is to measure how hard something is (one definition of 'stale' is 'hard'). What I did was poke a needle into whatever I was measuring the 'staleness' of and see what kind of resistance I get. 0=none 1=almost nothing ........ 10=extremely hard and stale *huff huff* "I can't puncture it at all!". Or at least that's what I do... Let's hope someone improves my answer.


What household substances get you high?

WikiAnswers does not provide instructions on how to use drugs. Certain household products -- mostly spray-cans -- can be used to get high. They're called "inhalants." A lot of people "huff" these products because 1) they are cheap, and 2) they are legal. However, these products are deadly poisons, and they can cause brain damage and INSTANT death, even for experienced users! See the Related Links for more information. And over-the-counter pills and medications like cough syrup and sleeping pills can also cause severe, irreversible damage or death.

What is the function of oxygen in aerobic metabolism?

How we get the energy from the food we eat, its similar to process of burning a candle or a fire, oxygen is how you get the energy and how you control. For example limiting the oxygen limits the energy, like when you sit on a couch your breathing is slow and relaxed versus when you run you huff and puff gasping for air.
