Informitive speech
The topic that i will be informing you on today will be on marijuana. By the time I am finished i hope to inform you on the effects of smoking pot, short term and long term, how pot gives one a high, and how pot is used. ((http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofacts/marijuana.html)), Being a college student and a teenager, I have been around many people that use weed and i also have been known to “toke up” on a few occasions myself so I am very familiar with my topic. Pot, chronic, weed, sticky icky, and green, are just a few nicknames that marijuana has.
“Marijuana, according to the nida’s website is the number one most used illegal drug in the US.” Marijuana can be used in a number of differnt ways in order to get high. One way is boiling marijuana in butter or viniger to use in making baked goods, such as brownies formally known as hash brownies. But the main way marijuana is used is by smoking it and trust me there are a number of differnt ways a person can smoke pot. Pot can be smoked out of joints, blunts, bowels, pipes, steam rollers, bongs, zongs, gravity bongs, bubblers, gas masks, hookas, even out of eating goods such as apples and potaoes.
“The main chemical inside of marijuana that gives a person a high is called THC scientifically know as “delta-9-tet-rahy-dro-cann-a-bin-ol.” “THC enters a person lungs and goes into their blood stream. From there THC connectS to certain nerve cells in ones brain and gives a person a high.” States the NIDA from their website. short term effects unforutintally is the high itself which is usaully a lapse in memory, a sudden urge of laughter, a increase in vision or hearing, also a increase in hunger. Some negitive side effects of smoking can be a very large increase of possible heart attacks. Also damage to the respitory system and a decrease in brain cells.
So pot inconclusion can make you feel good for a short period of time from smoking it. But can lead to negative side effects physcially. Even though pot has negitive side effects it still seems to conquer all the other illegal drugs used in the US. Thank You.
