i dont know about the flavor or the high, because i've never done it, but in terms of health it is most definitely not good. i would not try it if i was you

It's definitely healthier than cigarettes! Trying it won't hurt him, nobody gets hooked on marijuana the first time they try it.
He won't want to smoke again if he experiences that! Lol. I stopped smoking for a while once because my boyfriend brought me my first taste of good weed and I almost died coughing.
weed is awsome...don't listen to people that tell you its a drug..thats all bullshit, weed is a plant is just grows like that.
i don't think i know one person that has made it threw highschool and didn't smoke weed,lol.

first timers dont get high the first time, mostly.
i prefer spliff to a bong, or a pipe to a bong. i dunno why.
do it with people who you are comfortable with, and arent going to pressure you.
some people feel pressured and they end up greening out cause they don't stop
when they feel they have had enough.

lol yes it is a plant but it contains a substance that is a drug, Tetrahydrocannabinol, THC. and saying it is safe because it "just grows like that" is a poor argument. The venom of a scorpion is "just made like that" in their bodies. Would you say it is safe to drink a glass of scorpion poison? It could kill you in under 30 minutes depending on the scorpion. And what about poisonous mushrooms? They grow naturally in the wild but some types of poisonous mushrooms will kill you in under a few hours if you ingest them. And just because smoking alot of marijuana at once cannot kill you doesn't mean it isn't harmful. And marijuana can kill you indirectly by causing you to get yourself killed in an auto or other accident due to mental impairment.
It's definitely healthier than cigarettes! Trying it won't hurt him, nobody gets hooked on marijuana the first time they try it.
Would you like to explain how it is healthier than cigarettes? Smoking anything including marijuana deposits toxins in your lungs and can cause emphysema and other lung problems. Marijuana also causes impaired judgement, and some studies have shown it can cause memory problems and other mental impairments for up to a month after it is smoked. Indeed trying it ONCE may not be enough to hurt him noticeably, however it will cause the things i stated above. Also it most likely will cause him to want to do it again. Though marijuana does not cause physical dependence like
nicotine does, it does make people want to do it again for the high it causes. So actually it is addictive. Plus it is very hard to quit marijuana because of withdrawal symptoms experienced by those trying to quit. These are detailed in the InfoFacts Marijuana article below.
Scientific studies on marijuana show that marijuana use will cause increased risk of heart attack or stroke, as well as the mental problems i stated above. It has also been shown to cause long term mental problems.
In fact, him trying it once could hurt him, since studies show that less than an hour after smoking marijuana, the risk of heart attack in that person quadruples. Check out this article, which includes this fact and all the other things i have stated in this post. It also details some other mental problems that marijuana can cause including schizophrenia.
Marijuana being a plant means nothing in terms of its safety
While high on marijuana a person is very likely to get themselves or someone else killed or injured in an auto or other accident because of impaired judgement and perception
Marijuana causes increased risk of heart attack and stroke in the long and short term
Marijuana does not cause physical dependence but can still be addictive and it is very hard to quit
Marijuana smoking can cause serious lung problems including various cancers and emphysema
Marijuana causes short term as well as long term memory and learning problems
Marijuana smoking quadruples the risk of heart attack within the first hour after it is smoked
Marijuana can cause many other mental problems including schizophrenia
So marijuana is most definitely NOT safe and is rightly illegal.
