Agreed, even sweating profusely for hours on end (please no one try that) won't alter the concentration of THC seen through one's urine appreciably enough to even blip the radar.

so would working out and burning a lot of calories be a good way to get the thc out of your system since its stored in fat(get rid of fat, get rid of thc in the fat???)?

lew scannon

It does, but up to a point. As Nerph pointed out, you want to put your body in "storage mode" 3 days before the test - avoid all exercise and be lazy as possible, so you wont be releasing a bunch of THC metabolites into the bloodstream (as a result of fat cells being burned), which end up in the urine.

The essential benefit that "sweating" does--especially if induced by aerobic exercise of at least 30 minutes and combined with sauna--is to induce your body to transition from "carbohydrate burning" to "lipolysis or fat burning" to supply ATP energy for your body. Theoretically, if your exercise is of sufficient magnitude to induce you into ''fat burning'' metabolism, then it does offer some benefit in terms of speeding up the breakdown of THC-laden lipid cells and shunting them (and their THC metabs) into the venous-flow bloodstream for ultimate excretion via urine/stool during the 5 to 10 days prior to your test (i.e, "metabolic cleansing"). This practice is maximally beneficial--in terms of helping you to pass a drug test---if such exercise it is consistently done approx 5 to 10 days prior to your test; then STOPPED approx 2 days prior to your test and not smoking (of course to keep the old THC-laden fat cells from contributing to your urine THC level and preventing the newly synthesized fat cells from being impregnated with novo THC). So, the overall effect of "aerobic exercise" on "lowering your detection window" is most efficient if done 5 to 10 days priors to the UA, and least effecient (perhaps detrimental) on 1 to 2 days prior to the UA.

Hey, it's just a daym plant!

Is that realllllly true? That if someone is pregnant it actually takes less time to clear your system of THC? I have been trying to find answers on that all over the web. I know someone who smoked a few bowls throughout the period of about 3 or 4 days. She had been clean for months before that...and she also happens to be pregnant. Now she is panicking because she has to go in for a UA and is afraid that it will come back positive. She has 23 or so days to flush her system out, and as you probably now...a pregnant woman can't really do anything except go the ol' natural way.

So...do you think 23 days is enough time to get clean for a pregnant woman after smoking a period of 3-4 days but being clean months prior? and is it really true that it takes less time to rid your system of THC when pregnant? I need answers, and you seem like the one to know!

There is a physiologic increase in the glomerular filtration rate of the kidneys during pregnancy, and it may add a small incremental benefit in terms of clearing THC and metabolites from the body faster than in the non-pregnant state, but there is insufficient evidence to say whether the effect is significant enough to actually make a difference in terms of being able to pass a drug test sooner. I would assume for the sake of practicality that it makes no significant difference, just to be on the safe side.

Question, thoretically, would talking the last bit of urine be better than the first bit? My reasoning is that there would be some form of sepeartion. Unless the metabolites of the THC would float?

Oh, also, I think I recently heard of a girl having to retest cuz she was preggers.

nerphroll

The end of the stream should be the same as the start in terms of THC and metabolite concentration in the urine.

Splendens

should, but do you know? lol

Sec

Yes he knows. It is his profession to know these things. Trust me.
