For centuries, cannabis has been used for various purposes, including medicinal treatments and spiritual ceremonies. Today, cannabis is legal for recreational use in a growing number of states. For artists, this new level of access to cannabis provides an opportunity to explore its benefits and find the best ways to consume it for creativity and productivity.
If you are an artist, singer, or musician, and you would like to learn about the best ways to consume cannabis, here are some of the healthiest ways for artists to consume cannabis.
Dry Herb Vaporizers
The primary reason why many artists are looking for another way to consume marijuana is that using traditional means, such as joints or bongs, tends to be unhealthy. However, many people would still like to feel like they are using a traditional method, which is one of the reasons why dry herb vaporizers have become so popular.
Dry herb vaporizers are healthier than using traditional methods such as joints or bongs because the marijuana is not burnt and therefore does not release any harmful carcinogens or toxins. In addition to this, there are many types of dry herb vaporizers on the market, especially at Smoke Cartel, which means there’s a device to suit just about anyone’s lifestyle.
Edibles
The next healthy cannabis consumption method on this list has been popular for quite some time but has been gaining popularity over the last few years; edibles. As the name would suggest, edibles are food items that have been infused with marijuana. All you need to do to use an edible is to eat it.
For artists who are worried about damaging their vocal cords, this is a great choice since using a dry herb vaporizer creates vapor, which might potentially be bad for the lungs and the vocal cords. However, one negative of edibles is the fact that you have to consume food items, which means that you need to watch your calories if you are on a diet.
Transdermal Patches
One of the healthiest ways to consume cannabis, which isn’t spoken about very often is transdermal patches. The reason this method is one of the healthiest is that you don’t have to eat anything and you don’t have to inhale any smoke or vapor.
How a transdermal patch works is you place it on your skin, and small amounts of THC will slowly be released into your bloodstream throughout the day. Essentially, this means that you will be able to microdose without needing to do anything; this will give you the benefits of cannabis, without experiencing the intoxicating effects.
Dab Rigs
Another popular method of marijuana consumption, which is considered to be quite healthy, at least healthier than using traditional methods, is the dab rig. If you were to glance at a dab rig, you would think that it is a bong, since it is very similar in shape. However, dab rigs don’t use dry herb, they use marijuana concentrate.
Aside from being healthy, another benefit that dab rigs offer is the ability to consume large amounts of THC in a short period. This means that if you would like to consume a lot of THC, but you don’t want to damage your vocal cords using a joint, then dab rigs are a great choice.
Dab and Vape Pens
If you have done some reading about dry herb vaporizers or dab rigs, you might have noticed that these devices are quite large. If you are the type of artist that is often on the move, traveling from one studio to another, you might want something smaller.
The best choice for you then would be dab or vape pens. Dab pens work the same way as dry herb vaporizers. However, instead of using dry herb, you would need to use concentrate like a regular dab rig. When it comes to vape pens, these work a little bit differently. Dab pens require pods to be used, which are usually prefilled with vape juice containing THC. When the pods are finished, you will need to get another. Both of these options are great for someone that travels around frequently but doesn’t consume too much whilst on the go.
