When a person has an asthma attack, a chemical molecule, acetylcholine, normally responsible for maintaining muscle tone of the airways, also contributes to the contractions in asthma attacks.

When THC is released through a vaporizer, it has almost immediate bronchial dilation effects without the risk of harmful smoke.
