more science about how the doobies are bad for you. not the brothers, but the marijuana cigarettes.
here's some data skimmed:
research found 20 times as much ammonia, a chemical linked to cancer
five times as much hydrogen cyanide and nitrogen oxides, which are linked to heart and lung damage respectively
in the case of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, the toxin linked to infertility, the researchers found concentrations were actually higher in cigarette smoke (this one's about second hand smoke).
yowza. the article did point out that tobacco smokers tended to smoke more, which could equalize the effects.
