- Bronchodilator function: Marijuana contains a chemical compound known as THC, which is a broncho dilater. It means that it opens up the small bronchi’s of the lungs and helps pass out the sputum and other dust particles but cigarettes they contain nicotine which has opposite action .
- Cigarettes contain nicotine which is the major cause of atherosclerosis (hardening of blood vessels), as a result of which it can lead to different heart diseases, different vascular diseases, and many more but as for marijuana it doesn’t contain nicotine,
