hello detox

Discussion in 'Experienced Cannabis Enthusiasts' started by cornerthat, Mar 1, 2008.

  1. Hey city, this is my first post. Ive been puffin clouds in Ontario for years and recently fell upon this community and thought it a was pretty sick idea to help get everyone more baked.
    I was just thinking of taking a break from smoking because I noticed i'm not getting nearly as high as i used to off dank skunks and other high end dope. But i was also thinking that the main idea of that would be to flush all the thc out of my system (could probally get 5 kids baked) but isnt there common drugs that do exactly that.. detox? would flushing your system with a detox program be the same as taking like a month break? ive never had to take detox because ive never been caught, because im not stupid, but thats not the point.
    so what do you think?
     
  2. I haven't tried it, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like that. I think Detox just masks (depends?) the THC or else I'd never go on a damn T-break again. Usually what I do is get some multivitamins high in Vitamin B (speeds metabolism) to drop my tolerance fast. They're healthy and clean out your system. Green Tea is "said" to speed metabolism, but there is little scientific evidence, but just look at how skinny Japanese people are :p, plus it's has anti-oxidants. I know it sucks, but waiting out a T-break is the only* way.

    PS- I'm pretty sure those detox drinks are not regulated by a "Food and Drugs Administration" and could contain many wierd chemicals.

    *-Unless proven otherwise :p
     
  3. word man, good choice of user name.
     
  4. haha, ya i heard green tea helps i bought some the other day
    i like my name, when randoms dont corner my bowl at school i rip at them and blacklist them from my piece lol
    i guess ill just have to keep finding higher thc content in buds
     
  5. Detox just doesn't seme like it would be as effective as a tolerance break. I'm on right now, it's pretty alright.
     
  6. Tolerance has to do with the number of cannabinoid receptors in your brain. The more you smoke in a given amount of time, your brain gradually shuts down those receptors. The THC that stays in your bloodstream maintains that tolerance until it leaves the body.

    Once a lower amount of THC is present, your brain starts switching on more of those receptors, which lowers your tolerance.

    Many detox systems would help to clear the THC out of your body, but you are still going to need to wait a while for the cannabinoid receptors to become active again.
     
  7. How long exactly does it take for brain receptors to go back to normal? and how much can I smoke with out gaining my tolerance back? Im on a t-break right now and It's been almost 2 days. I plan to go for 2-3 weeks
     
  8. I understand your concept but I don't think thats the right way to go. If you wanted to do something like that it would have to say a liver cleanse would be a better choice. But that takes a month anyways, but that gits rid of all the toxins in your body.
     
  9. thanks for the info guys
