Vapors and Their Intake
A pipe which is held near the heat source of vaporizer is used for inhalation of vapors. The other types of vaporizers have a bag attachment. The vapors are pushed into it and the person who wants to inhale these vapors removes the bag and inhales the vapors. Conduction heating or by transmission of heat principle is used in home made vaporizers. Bulbs used in electric lamp consisting of transparent or translucent glass housing are used for this purpose, before the substance that has to be vaporized is chosen a tube and a crab are fixed at the bottom of the bulb. The cleaned bulb is heated with the help of a candle or cigarette lighter. Plant extract or herb inside the bulb is heated up and sublimation takes place and the vapors are used or stored for inhalation.
The privilege of vaporization is that drug is immediately given to the blood thus the effect is very rapid. So, even a small quantity of vapor is sufficient for an addict. Likewise the dosage can be controlled more accurately in contrast to other smoking products. Vaporizers have gone through many rigorous studies and researches. And the resultant was that the vaporizers are a very good and safe alternative to smoking. Arguments for this are the vapors produced by vaporizers are cleaner than of smoking as the content of carbon monoxide and other harmful gases is very less. Although the respiratory irritation is not completely removed in vaporizers but it is very less as compared to other smoking products. Strong vaporizer can cause coughing, in which the amount of solid substance is more or it is denser. Hot and dry vapors are the main cause of coughing. Thus vaporizers having water or ice as cooling agent are used to cool the vapors as to lessen the harmful effects, and having better results for avoiding or controlling cough.
The efficiency of a vaporizer depends upon various factors like temperature of the vaporizers which is generated by lighter or candle, density of plant material or herb used, the weight content of the water and the essential oils present, the time for which vapors are stored in the bag or balloon before inhalation and the breathing technique used. Different methods are used to inhale vapors from vaporizers like expelling all the vapors from lungs, collecting all the vapors in the stomach, holding the breath for a while or for a long time and exhale slowly through the nose. The method to inhale the vapors depends upon person to person and their personal habits as the intake level and consumption level of the persons can be different. Beginners will be having less capacity as compared to addicts.
