Human beings have been dealing with cannabis more than thousand years. To get maximum result from the psychoactive effects of cannabis, this should consume properly. There is a small overview of different ways of cannabis consumption that are used nowadays.

Smoking is unconsciously first method. Because of availability and efficiency this method is the most common and widespread. There are many kinds of ways in which it can be done. The most familiar way is, of course, smoking through a joint is created by furling cannabis. Putting marijuana into cigarette instead of tobacco is very common scenery in areas like Russia. Another common method is rolling a blunt which means of putting marijuana inside a tobacco leaf from a cigar. Using pipes with water chambers that refines and cools with smoke is widespread-used. It’s another name is bubbler.

 

The second method is vaporization. It includes the vaporizer- special equipment that heats marijuana without actually emblazing. The very important ingredient THC transforms into gas and can be breathed in easily. That helps to dispose of all smoking negative effects on lungs-no smoke, no cancer danger. An inexpensive and easily transported version of vaporizer is e-cigarette. For medical purposes it’s mostly used. Loading THC into a cartridge instead of nicotine, e-cigarette is also a good choice to control the dosage. Eating is another way of consumption. That allows us to save a considerable amount of THC that is lost because of burning while smoking. There are two branches in oral consumption: actually eating or masticating marijuana or hash and eating particularly made cannabis –containing products like bakery. There is no efficiency in eating hash because it easily comes into water when mixed with water of lipids. Hence, cannabis food has got legality in the market of Netherlands. These foods contain THC with different kinds of oil. That allows making butter or special bakery. There is a disadvantage in such kind of consumption-after 2-3hours of eating full affects may be reached. That may not be really commodious. However, the effect last for much longer time as well. Some of the products of cannabis can keep you high in 24hours. But this duration depends on the doses of cannabis on the product.

As cannabis can be stripped in high quality spirits, some alcohol drinks connected with cannabis could exist. Another way to actually drink cannabis is to make a tea from its leaves. But that will be a loss of product because THC is just slightly capable of being dissolved in water. There are outstanding things to invent for human bodies. Different ways of consumption just prove only one thing-if you really want to do something, there is no want of different kinds of ways to do this. Just this is a matter of one’s preferences and tastes. You cannot measure the actual quantity of recreational doses of cannabis. You should be more concerned about what you feel. One big issue: if you smoke cannabis, effects come in 5-10 minutes, if you introduce it orally – in 40-60 minutes. A strong wish to have some more during this period is a signal of a proper effect on you. The most common mistake in recreational usage of marijuana is a wish to get the same body effects as from alcohol or opiate drugs. However, THC mostly effects brain and doesn't touch other parts of nerve system. That's why if you actually do experience some extra heat in your body and other specific feelings that means that overdosing border has been passed and you should get ready for not that pleasant side effects including sleepiness, problems with thinking and so on. And introducing more of marijuana may lead to even less pleasant effects. However, death is not that common as a lethal dose of THC is relatively high – 40 000 of a common effective.

Cannabis is used as a spiritual tool in Hindu religion during ancient time.

That gift was in good hands of fakirs, yogis and amylases. Moreover, cannabis used to be an idol for them. It was worshiped, there were special festivals organized for it. However, Hindu stated they had been worshiping not the plant itself, but the deity it symbolized. Using ganja was the way to worship that god of adoration. That is the way of all religion’s to create expression through cannabis.
