"Cannabis Edibles vs. Smoking: Expert Opinions on Safety"

As cannabis products become more widely available, experts weigh in on whether edibles are safer than smoking. The Canadian Center on Substance Use and Addiction suggests that ingesting edibles is less harmful to the lungs than smoking, while the CDC warns about the risks of vaping and dabbing. However, experts caution that different routes of cannabis consumption carry different risks, and advise consumers to carefully read product labels and avoid mixing cannabis with alcohol or other substances. While edibles have a delayed onset of effects and can lead to dosage-related issues, smoked cannabis can harm lung tissues. Overall, the safety of cannabis consumption depends on various factors, and users should be aware of potential health risks associated with different forms of consumption.
