    Alrighty, I just need some reassurance here..

    Lately a bunch of people in my town have been saying that bongs are bad for you because they can put mold in your lungs because you get water vapor in them from using a bong....

    I mean... we breathe out H20 as part of respiration... correct?

    Those people are dumb as fuuuuucccccckkkkkk!!!!!

    Ripping bongs will not make mold grow in your lungs. You shouldn't listen to stupid people bro

    I once heard that the slight increase in water vapor in the air was linked to mold infection.

    I stopped taking showers at that point.

    Mold in your lungs? Is that even possible?

    If you smoke weed that has actually grown mold, you may not burn all the spores and you'll get a bronchitis like infection for a month or so

    Yeah I mean I know that, but is it even possible to have mold grow on your lungs like OP is saying?

    Mold in your lungs? NO. I will say however that bongs definitely concentrate the smoke and the way people cough from taking too big of a hit unexpectedly can be really dangerous....try clearing your throat after a bong hit check out the color...NASTY....but hey, pick your apparatus as you please they all have negatives and positives...

    Yeah, people say they are better for your health, but I always think, if that's the case why would you have to cough so much. Shooting that much hot (even with water/ice) smoke into your lungs at once, even if it was cold, can't be good for you.

    you'll probably get a little more mucus production, but other than that no. They aren't bad for you.

    Acrylic bongs have been linked to bein unhealthy, but not glass. Plastic=disgusting

    like shibby22one said, acrylic/plastic bongs might be unhealthy because you could be inhaling plastic particles.
