Breaking Down a Popular Cannabis Misconception
One of the most persistent myths in cannabis consumption circles is that holding smoke in your lungs longer leads to increased effects. At Mapleglen Care Center, we regularly educate our customers about this and other misconceptions about cannabis use.
Here’s the scientific truth: holding smoke in your lungs for an extended period doesn’t enhance the effects of cannabis. Here’s why:
- THC absorption occurs within seconds of inhalation
- Extended holding only deprives your brain of oxygen
- The light-headed feeling from holding smoke is actually mild hypoxia
What actually matters for cannabis effectiveness:
- Quality of the product
- Proper dosing
- Individual tolerance levels
- Consumption method
Whether you’re visiting us from Rockford, Belvidere, or anywhere else in the Northern Illinois region, our knowledgeable staff can help guide you toward the most effective and safe consumption methods for your needs.
Remember: The most important factors in having a positive cannabis experience are using quality products from licensed dispensaries and following proper dosing guidelines. No special breathing techniques required!
