Marijuana affects everyone differently. This depends on a few variables, with the main one being that marijuana is fat-soluble, which means that it dissolves in fat as opposed to a water-soluble substance which dissolves in water, and excess amounts leave the body through the kidneys.

Since the primary psychoactive chemical is fat-soluble, how long marijuana remains measurable in a person’s system depends on fat levels, which in turn depend on a variety of other factors such as how often you smoke.
