Caffeine vs Marijuana

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by LulzRoyce, Jan 26, 2011.

  1. Anyone feel that large consumptions of caffeine daily can be hindering your high? Caffeine raises your heartrate, can make you nervous, hyper and jittery. Seems like the opposite of what pot is trying to do, so my question is, anyone have any concrete evidence to the possibility that daily caffeine consumption can be killing your high? I'm testing this out personally this week to see if I in general get higher on a day that I consume no caffeine whatsoever, because I've recently noticed that most of my non-water drinks contain caffeine lol. Anyone have any input, articles, theories? I can't really find much on this on Google (just articles talking about how caffeine is more dangerous than weed lol) and nothing on this site thus far. Thx!
     
  2. That's interesting. I've never even considered that. Let me know how it goes!
     
  3. the problem with finding the type of evidence you are asking for is that the only testing the federal government is going to allow is for medical purposes. researchers are having a hard enough time trying to get marijuana legal for medical patients, let alone decriminalized/legalized. you aren't going to find a study on how recreational smoking is effected by x, y, or z. at least not until it's legalized.
     


  4. I wouldn't say that. Look at all the other studies done on marijuana regarding its effects on our brains, behavior etc. All major drugs have had studies done to them, how do you think we know so much about heroin, cocaine and meth? Legality isn't an issue I don't think, it's just the topic of how caffeine may affect ones high might not be a popular one, or something many havent thought/cared to discover about. Because I personally think that caffeine has some adverse and possibly negative health affects on us, and mixing it with marijuana is something I think is worth to research about medically. Just my 2 cents.
     
  5. Will do, we both have Lulz in our names, lulz.
     
  6. you missed my point. there's a lot of oversight when it comes to studying illegal drugs. Some research labs spend years trying to get the government to okay their application and receive marijuana to study (this is the formal way to do it if you want to publish your findings and have them credible in the scientific community). Do you think they would research how the drug interacts with us physically, and how it can help us first, or do you think they would spend time seeing if recreational use is effected by caffeine?
     
  7. caffiene+weed=WIN. I don't get tired and keep raging through the night.
     
  8. Weird.

    I feel there's nothing better than a nice tall glass of coke or pepsi while blazing. Especially if i take a big rip.

    and even after, i like having caffine. keeps me up so i can blaze more lol
     
  9. I too, find that caffeine can ruin my high if I take too much. If I have an energy drink right before smoking, I end up getting jittery and get the high shakes. I limit myself to one soda a day now if that.
     

  10. Coke and pepsi don't compare to the caffiene in coffee.
     
  11. Let me first say that they are two completely different types of drugs, which can have different reactions.

    We all know(or at least should know!) that caffeine is more dangerous and addictive then cannabis is.

    Since caffeine is a stimulant, it can make you anxious and what not, and can hurt your sleeping in the long run(depending on different factors of course).
     
  12. ok you nonbelievers or dis agreers.
    why dont you smoke a fantabulous blunt of dank or wahtever you got
    then down an energy drink rite after that.


    tooottaallyy different feelings
    if you do it so much??
    it wont feel like a mix anymore
    the caffiene will cancel out your high
    or you know, reverse the uptake effects n shit in your brain
    annnd
    you probly wont be as high, then if you had not drunken a bunch of caffiene
     

  13. Caffiene is not the most prominent stimulant in most energy drinks, taurine and guarana extract tend to be the big players in energy drinks like monster, full throttle, rockstar and no fear. Red bull is mainly caffiene though, last I checked.
     
  14. yea but,
    those are all different forms of caffiene
    thats the thing.

    thyr very bad for your heart

    most of those chemcials come from naturaly occuring plants and herbs

    concentrated like this?? fucking
    destruction
     

  15. They're not all forms of caffeine, they are other stimulants that are much less addictive then caffeine, yeah they have a similar effect, but they do different thugs inside your body.
     
  16. couple of them are, either way doesnt matter.
    shit is bad for you.
    i hate having cafinated drinks when im blazing

    i used to drink em all the time
    not anymore
    i feel that shit

    feels like doing powder. almost

    wich sucks
     
  17. like taurine, not even a stumlant
    guarana? all cafiien, it alone has more caffiene then coffee
     
  18. Coffee and weed are a win for me. It might lessen the high in the sense that if you're going for a lazy couch-lock experience, then you'll be more awake than you'd like to be. Although, from much, much experience with these together, I'd say they are a great combo. I get a nice high, but not lazy or lethargic at all. I don't think it lessens the high, just makes it different. Energy drinks/soda might be a little different, but as far as I'm concerned coffee>energy drink, by so much.
     
  19. yea, energy drinks def are not good when high.

    but im sure anything wouldnt hurt taht bad
    as long as its not supper strong
     
  20. I came up in the 60's through the 70's. C affine was never part of the scene man. The dope was everything. WE smoked from sun up and into the night with a good night hit to put us to sleep. We were stoned man. No time for caffeine. Mabey some sunshine from time to time but we let nothing interfere with smoking our dope.
