Thoughts from the tobacco and marijuana documentaries
After watching Paul's documentary it's obvious how serious the effects of tobacco are. I'm not sure why anyone would believe there aren't negative effects of smoking. My thought is, why do so many teens smoke? If they know it is proven to cause cancer and other serious health effects, why is it still so common? In Chad's documentary he talks about all the health benefits of marijuana. My question is what are the effects of mixing tobacco and marijuana? If tobacco causes cancer and marijuana has sometimes cured cancer, what happens to your body when you mix them? Does the tobacco still have full consequences on your body? or does the marijuana cancel the effects of the tobacco? How can we find out?

From the lectures I've gotten, mostly concerning burnt toast..... there are around 7,000 different carcinogenic compounds that can be formed due to burning. Regardless of what is being burned, carcinogens are formed. So, if you're burning something and putting that burnt substance into your body, damage is done. Also chad's documentary didn't say that marijuana was used for any of the cancers associated with tobacco use (i think?).
