Breaking Down a Popular Cannabis Misconception
As a trusted recreational dispensary serving Las Vegas since 2018, Cultivate Las Vegas frequently encounters customers who hold various misconceptions about cannabis consumption. One of the most persistent myths we hear is that holding cannabis smoke in your lungs longer leads to a more intense high.
Let’s set the record straight:
The Science Behind Absorption
The truth is, your lungs absorb THC and other cannabinoids almost immediately upon inhalation. Research shows that:
• 95% of THC is absorbed within the first few seconds
• Holding smoke longer only damages lung tissue
• Extended holding increases tar and toxin absorption
Why This Myth Persists
People often feel lightheaded when holding their breath longer, mistaking this oxygen deprivation for increased cannabis effects. This misconception has been circulating for decades, but at Cultivate Las Vegas, we’re committed to educating our customers with factual information.
Better Consumption Practices
Instead of holding smoke, we recommend:
• Taking steady, measured inhales
• Using proper dosing
• Starting slow and going slow
• Selecting appropriate products for your needs
Since opening our doors in 2018, Cultivate Las Vegas has prioritized customer education alongside our premium product selection. Whether you’re visiting us from North Las Vegas, Spring Valley, Paradise, or Corn Creek, our knowledgeable staff can help guide you toward safe and effective consumption practices.
