After reading a few threads here about vaporizers I have decided to get one (as soon as I have the money...I'm a completely broke college student).

Anyways...I'm an avid tea drinker...white, oolong, chai, green...I drink them all. I prefer loose leaf teas, but am too broke to order them so Im back to drinking bagged tea.

Anyways, one of the reasons I drink tea is for the health benefits and the high level of antioxidents it provides. I was wondering if anyone here with a vaporizer has tried put in a little herb and some say...green tea leaves and hit it?

Green tea is supposed to be brewed at 140°F - 185°F. Do you think the beneficial antioxidents would vaporaize out of it or would it need water? That would be ideal cause maybe inhaling the antioxidents would help neutralize other negative chemicals (possibly) found in marijuana.

Kind of an off-the-wall question, I know. I'm just curious...

I've never used tea in my vaporizer, but I have used sage in combination with pot, just for flavor. I doubt that the antioxidents in the tea would be present in the vapor, as only the water and oils are released. I wouldn't worry about any "negative chemicals" from the marijuana: if you're using a vaporizer, you're not inhaling any smoke or carcinogens, just vaporized oils and water. Go ahead and try it with tea if you like, but I'd suggest just sipping a cup while you vape.

Peace.

BTW: Contrary to other advice you might find on this site, the really cheap soildering-iron type vaporizers work VERY well (at least mine does). Sure, high end models are probably better, but I got my vape brand new for $30. Why shell out $400 for a Volcano when you can get by just fine with a cheaper model and use the money you saved to buy a fat sack?
