It has nothing to do with CNN.

Every other channel could publish this study eg Fox news

So does that Indian quasi doctor still work for them? He was the one pushing Marijuana

do you think a pharmaceutical company wants people smoking weed instead of using their drugs? CNN is partially funded by Pfizer

Cardiovascular disease and dope smoking. Doesn't surprise me. Getting the munchies and piling down junk food is a known side effect.

Don't see the words "Pfizer" or "CNN" mentioned, just a general AI Answer on Pharma advertising. So Pfizer is also  financing Fox News or any of the other TV Channels.

I guess my question still stands. Naive or a fool? You've been proven wrong and now you're just mincing words

 

I had fed a general question into ai and received the general answer. If you really want to know the score then just dig deep into it. But you never want to do that cuz you might learn something in the process.

I don't need to dig deeper to proof your nonsense.

Stupid is as stupid does. I guess that is why they call it dope. When I was much younger I had a friend who was constantly high on ganja even though he had a very high IQ. One night while high as usual he decided to clean his 12 gauge shotgun in his parents basement. Unfortunately, in his severely degraded mental capacity due to his being stoned, he forgot that there was a shell in the chamber. A while later his parents heard a very loud boom and ran down the basement. He must have been looking down the barrel when it went off as he was decapitated. More than fifty five years later I still morn the loss of this friend. I know this would have never happened if he was in his right mind.

That would apparently be PROVE. It's a horrible sentence as well...

 

That's an especially weak retort. You're obviously too lazy to go search out the information that you claim you're interested in. Meaning - you have no interest in the truth.

Why would a Serbian refugee to Canada describe a US citizen as an "Indian", unless one was attempting to denigrate the person based upon ethnic origin?  Dr. Gupta was born in Michigan and was educated in the USA. He is a qualified pediatric neurosurgeon and teaches at Emory Medical School. He is not a "quasi" doctor.  He still practices medicine. His position on cannabis is that it may be helpful for some patients under certain conditions and that it warrants additional research and investigation. He has never "pushed" marijuana.

OK I've  searched and have got an astonishing answer, the Pope is a catholic.

I guess his IQ wasn't as high as he was.

 

Sounds weak blaming weed. Millions smoke the stuff daily and don't blow their faces off.

Probably yes, as based on this study smoking weed leads to ill health and that's where they can really rack up the bucks via health insurance & government health systems 🤷‍♂️

 

Or are you suggesting a ban on weed will force stoners to rush to the pharmacy/doctor to get something else prescribed ?

 

It's not really a great leap of faith to believe that smoking weed has negative health effects is it ?

I honestly don’t know why anyone even wastes time focusing on these negative studies about cannabis use. The percentage of people who die from cardiovascular issues linked to cannabis is microscopic. Meanwhile, cigarettes and alcohol pose an exponentially greater risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, lung disease, liver disease and stroke, and yet most people in the world regularly consume one or both without a second thought.
 

The reality is, if everyone ditched alcohol and cigarettes and switched to cannabis, especially non-smoking forms, the world would be far better off and in many more ways than one.

 

Think about it. How many people die every year because of drunk drivers? How many suffer from pulmonary problems caused by secondhand cigarette smoke? People aren’t just destroying themselves with alcohol and cigarettes, they’re taking others down with them too.

The reality is all of it is toxic, the more intake the higher the toxicity. Why do any of it when having a clear mind and body is better than being fogged up.

Cigarettes, alcohol and overeating.

Food is probably the No1 cause of death to western people.

I've not found a better way to cure my arthritis.

"Smoking" anything - combusting materials and chemicals and inhaling the smoke is likely bad for one's health.

 

There are other ways to consume cannabis that may be healthier - edibles, dry-herb vaping.

Well, vaping is most toxic

Dry-herb vaping of cannabis flower is "most toxic"?

 

I don't think so.

 

All you inhale/consume is vapor and THC - assuming you've got the temp properly adjusted.

 

The referenced study clearly mentions that methods of consumption were not recorded, and that most participants were smoking cannabis flower.

 

 

 

[save the frogs]

I posted a video of a Rasta guy in the other thread.

 

He says smoking it releases toxins. He didnt mention vaping.

In the mid 70’s I had a friend with debilitating arthritis that advanced rapidly within about six months he went from walking without any aid to crutches then bed ridden. He smoked a lot of dope and it helped alleviate the pain but it didn’t cure the condition.

The operative word here, healthier. Not healthy. Or maybe not as unhealthy.
