This video did not touch on tinctures nor pills. Both forms highly able to control your dose, as you can easily measure to the mg, albeit without a rapid come on like smoking or vaping, full disclosure. Furthermore, pills can also carry a less precise come on due to other factors related to digestion. But, you can still see exactly how much you are taking.
Not to knock smoking too much, but such measurements do not seem to exist for this method. I think people generally measure in number of hits + how large of a draw they take. People often know their limit, but it's very unscientific.
Tinctures and pills also don't carry the silliness of other edibles (technically the tincture is sublingual), like gummies and cookies. People abuse regular gummy vitamins!
Inhaling smoke from burning matter is also way more harmful to the body than intake via swallowing
The worst thing about weed smoking culture (at least here in Germany) is that people tend to only make tips and not use filters, even when they mix with tobacco, which also a lot of people do. I don’t want unfiltered smoke in my lungs and I definitely don’t want unfiltered smoke with tar and nicotine.
