> The number one controllable risk factor for stroke and heart attack is smoking

Can you clarify? Do you mean smoking cigarettes? Or do you mean consuming nicotine? What about vaping? How about smoking marijuana?

There's an information imbalance so definitive claims can't be made about cannabis smoking in the way that they can be made about Tobacco smoking.

Imsuspect marijuana smoking is just as harmful. The bulk of the trouble from tobacco is from the smoke. And if you look at the health effects of air pollution, they’re very similar to smoking: respiratory infections, heart disease, COPD, stroke and lung cancer

Inhaling any burning thing is quite bad for the human organism.

Having smoked both, tobacco seems more irritating.
