| So I was reading about how THC is stored in fat cells... and how if you work out before a piss test, it could show THC even if you haven't smoked in a while just because of the THC you released while working out... So my question is... if you workout, is it possible to get high from all the THC being released in your system? Or is it "used" THC? thx =) |

| Yes, THC is "stoed' in fatty tissue. However, even though the chemical stays in your fat for various amounts of time (depending on how much you smoke, your body weight, Body mass index, etc) you don't get "high" when it hits your bloodstream. Look at it this way. I smoke daily, usually about 1/2 a gram of high quality weed. If your theory was correct, I could never exert myself very much without getting "high" from the THC being released from my fatty tissues. They are released in tiny amounts, and at a fairly slow rate. The released THC is then removed from the body via urination. While I can see why you'd have such a question, the fact is you'll never get high from the thc stored in your body's fatty tissue

| That'd be some good motivation for working out though. Just trying to get high. Haha |

| well you can get a natural high from working out, since it sends out endorphins into your brain, but then you have to really work yourself to shits. |

| Wrong! THC is not stored in fatty tissue. In fact, it's not stored at all. After THC has done its job of activating your receptor sites, your body breaks it down into 31 different metabolites. These metabolites are not psychoactive. The metabolites are what gets stored in your body fat.

| Ok, thats for the info Buzzby. I was aware the substances were not psychoactive, but wasn't sure the extent to which they were broken down. |
