Hey cope, thanks for the reply. Consider how we use alcohol to make things like turkey, pork etc tender. Alcohol breaks down fibrous connective tissue, so your bourbon-bbq pulled pork is especially soft and succulent the longer it’s been marinated.

Now, consider what happens in your body. A toxic solvent agent reaching all corners of your body, vs an irritating cloud of ash which gets trapped in your alveoli. Neither is good, but evidence strongly suggests that it’s harder to hurt yourself with flower vs booze.

For the record, I partake in both on occasion, but I definitely think alcohol is worse for me, personally. Everybody’s different.

There’s a lot of stuff on pubmed, here’s a quick one on lung hazards from cannabis: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32285993/
