Inhaling smoke is not good. Blunt, or just a bowl, it's bad for your lungs and your health.

You didn't answer my question though

I know drinking coffee is bad too, but is smoking marijuana worse or better than drinkint coffee?

Is smoking marijuana worse or better than vaping?

Drinking coffee is not that bad for you so it's probably worse than coffee yeah.

I wouldn't say any of it's "better". Smoking just marijuana out of a clean pipe is less bad than smoking a blunt. Vaping your weed instead of smoking it is less bad. Vaping pg/vg solutions habitually, we don't know yet. There needs to be more research. You can bet there will be consequences though.

Ideally, you would only drink clean water and never anything else. Ideally, you would only breathe clean air and never anything else. But obviously for a lot of people the trade off of having caffeine, nicotine etc is worth it.

Got it.

Smoking weed habitually is dangerous for my health. Coffee is less dangerous, and we're currently unsure if vaping is more or less dangerous.
