Smoking marijuana to get high is fun, but it has its downsides. Habitually smoking cannabis with a pipe, bong, or rolled in a joint over a long period of time can increase the risk of developing lung issues. Smoking is also usually tricky indoors or in crowded spaces, with the smoke and scent quickly giving away what you are doing. With all of these potential hazards in mind, many are exploring new ways to get high without smoking. Below, you can find 5 ways to get high without smoking cannabis.

1. EDIBLES

Edibles, which refer to any food or drink that contains marijuana in them, are quickly becoming the most popular alternative to smoking. Edibles are discreet, easy to carry, and usually delicious, making them an easy and convenient way to get high. Edibles usually take a bit longer for you to feel the effects, so be patient and dose yourself “low and slow”. There are a seemingly endless array of edibles to choose from, but below you can find a list of a few of the most popular types of edibles:

• Gummies
• Sucking Candy
• Chocolate
• Butter or Oil
• Beverages

2. VAPES

Vapes take cannabis oil, resin, or concentrate and rapidly heats the substance up until it turns into a vapor. You then inhale the vapor in order to feel the effects of the cannabis. Whiles vapes may seem very similar to smoking, it is actually quite different. Vapes are less taxing on the lungs than smoke, and the vapor you exhale after using is much less noticeable than smoke. As an added bonus, vapes allow you to choose from a lot of different fun flavors for your cannabis oil, resin, or concentrate.

3. CAPSULES

The most simple way to get high is cannabis capsules. All you have to do is take a pill and you are off! While very similar to edibles, capsules have the benefit of containing zero calories and offer an even more precise dosage.

4. TINCTURES

A tincture is a cannabis concentrate that allows you to squeeze very small amounts of a very strong extract into your food or beverage of choice. You can also simply squeeze a tincture concentrate into your mouth or under your tongue! Tinctures are one of the most discreet ways to enjoy cannabis on the go, as you can use tinctures to add a little bit of fun to a typical cup of coffee or meal.

5. TOPICALS

If you are using cannabis to treat chronic pain in a joint or a different specific part of your body, a topical might be the best option. While topicals will not really get you high, they can provide targeted pain relief to help you live a happy and healthy life. Topicals usually come in the form of gels, salves, lotions, or balms, and have a more muted effect than any of the above options.
