What do they call weed in japan?

The Japanese native word for pot is 大麻 (たいま) which is pronounced "taima."

"tai" rhymes with the English "tie", "ma" sounds like "ma" in the German "Mann".

The kanji means "big" and "hemp", respectively.

Oddly enough, most Japanese don't make the correlation between hemp and cannabis, though hemp has been an important part of Shinto for a while.

Another word used in Japanese for pot is マリファナ pronounced "marifana".

It was adopted from the English word, as were many other modern Japanese words such as "レスタラン" ("resutaran", or restaurant) and アルバイト ("arubaito", or part time job, from German "Arbeit").

Do parole agents in California test for marijuana in their standard drug tests?

Yes and No. Im currently on parole, and have not yet been tested for marijuana. My parole officer told me she would, but has not yet. Its more like what they dont know wont hurt them. I have been tested for alcohol and methamphetamines, but not marijuana. Some people think they dont test for marijuana because the test is expensive. I believe they do not, because its not a drug that leads to criminal behavior, and if they tried to enforce it, the prisons would be full in a matter of months.

How long would it take to flush THC from your system if you smoke a bowl about two times a week for the last three months?

Basically, you smoked a lot, so it will take ages.

THC is fat-soluble but not water-soluble, so it is not cleared well by the urinary system. Instead it remains stored in fat cells in the body until those cells are burned for energy, releasing the stored THC.

Given the amount smoked, you would not be clean for about four weeks, unless you somehow manage to burn every trace of fat from your body (which is pretty much impossible) and were to drink dangerously excessive amounts of water every day (which would probably put you in hospital) for days on end.

What is the difference between male and female marijuana?

Why is weed good for you?

Alcohol and nicotine, the drugs that are claimed to be safer, are actually considered by the scientific community to be hard drugs in comparison to cannabis. Furthermore, scaling up from animal studies, an average human would need to ingest over a kilogram of cannabis to die of an overdose.

There are studies that show no actual increased risk of cancer from smoking marijuana, even when duration of use is expanded over several years. In fact, some studies indicate THC to have anticancer properties, with studies showing tumor reduction in mice.

The idea of brain damage from cannabis may have had its origins in, or was at least popularized by, the results of a few studies on monkeys and rodents in the 1970s. However, the rodent studies involved 200 times the psychoactive dose of THC, and the monkey studies involved insufficient sample sizes and controls, and misidentification of "damage." In fact, the most (in)famous study finding evidence of brain damage involved forcing the monkeys to inhale huge amounts of cannabis smoke over several minutes straight, every day, causing potentially confounding oxygen deprivation and carbon monoxide poisoning. More recent studies, however, failed to show any brain damage from cannabis in monkeys when better experimental techniques were utilized.

Many school programs today teach that cannabis users are at a much higher risk of getting lung cancer or other diseases than tobacco cigarette smokers. While unburned cannabis or THC is not a known carcinogen, it is technically true that cannabis smoke, like any smoke, contains carcinogens. However, the largest study of its kind by the University of California - Los Angeles found that people who smoke marijuana are no more likely to develop lung cancer or head and neck cancers than non-smokers. In fact, some studies have shown that marijuana may actually reduce the risk of some cancers by as much as 61%.

Where is marijuana originated?

Can lab drug test detect detox drinks?

Depending on what drug you want to hide and the frequency of its use, will depend on how many days clean you need to have before your test.

I smoked marijuana over the weekend and I have a drug test coming up tomorrow will drinking water help pass the test?

Depending on how much you smoke daily will determine the outcome. If you hadn't smoked anything before that weekend, you should be fine. However, if you smoke regularly the THC will store in your cells and it will take a longer period of time for them to break down.

If a person takes one puff how long will it stay in your system?

About 1 week. That is if you are clean to begin with. *** I guess it depends on what you were smoking. A normal cigerate will deposit nicotine in your blood which can remain in your system for up to 36 hours. On the other hand if it was a joint the THC deposited into your blood can last up to 90 days...but with such a low amount entering your system it is likely it will only last about 3 days unless you have been smoking it on a regular basis.
