Why Cannabis Vaporization?
Vaporization is a technique for avoiding irritating respiratory toxins in marijuana smoke by heating cannabis to a temperature where the psychoactive ingredients evaporate without causing combustion.
Laboratory studies by California NRML and MAPS have found that vaporizers can efficiently deliver cannabinoids while eliminating or drastically reducing other smoke toxins."
Different vaporizers have different methods of doing this, but from my experience, only the high-end ones can release the psycoactive igredients with any success/efficiency. In short, 230degrees is the point of combustion and the vaporizer only heats the weed between 180-225degrees which is hot enough to release the lighter chemicals without ever reaching the point of combustion, thereby avoiding any of the harmful heavy/combusted chemicals. The smoke containing only light chemicals is then released into a bag. The bag is then attached to a mouth piece which has push valve for you to inhale.
