You are wrong. Cannabis does not "raise your pulse."
The fact you keep referring to the product as "marijuana" shows your ignorance. That term is actually now considered a racist slur. Call it what it is: CANNABIS
Yes it does. You can call it what you want, I don't care. "Racist slur" LOL. That's a joke, right?
it is common sense that using pot in any way shape or form, is harmful.
period. full stop.
ask anyone who has lived with a user.
I have had cancer twice. Right now I am at the stage where I must get retested every year, to see if my cancer has returned yet. It would appear that the only thing I can do at this point to prevent cancer from returning is to get good sleep every night and lower my stress.
I swim laps at the YMCA 3x a week, and I am a medical user.
I use every night right before I go to bed. It helps me to get to sleep most of the time, and I sleep through the night.
Ingesting things can harm you too. Like I said, it hasn't been around long enough to know long-term effects.
That's why I said, "For what it's worth." It's a free country. You can believe me or not. As for long-term effects, I'm 75 years old. I probably won't live long enough to find out. But at least I'll die happy.

Yes, THC does cause an increase in the heart rate. That's why people with cardiovascular issues should NOT use cannabis in any form. As I said before, it's not for everyone.

lmao! comedy gold
but seriously, what's wrong with racism? it's ubiquitous --- people root for their own kind. answer me this -- black boxer vs mexican boxer, both unknowns. how many blacks would root for the mexican? how many mexicans would root for the black? you and i both know the great majority would back their own, and would do so based on nothing but race
racism is natural, just like flocks of birds/schools of fish. fighting racism it is akin to fighting God, it's innate, part of the design
I also use edibles with no ill effects. It's funny how cannabis deniers or whatever you would call them.....
Chewing an edible (or taking in other oral form) does not have harmful effects on the body.
What is being denied is that that they haven't been around long enough to have studies on their long term effects. It's obvious you didn't read the article I linked because you "know" they don't have harmful effects.
that users fail to recognize the harmful effects
demonstrates the harmful effects.
walk into any bar and ask "any alcoholics here?" or "anyone have a problem with alcohol here?" and the answer is a resounding "no way"
same for pot users. "any harmful effects using pot?" same resounding "no way"
however ask the people who live with them, who interact with them, who do NOT use pot, and you will hear a whole other story of the problems it causes.
couldn't agree with this more. i have worked in healthcare for decades. any nurse or health tech who works in an Emergency Department can report that unequivocally and undeniably yes pot results in health problems.
or talk to anyone who has lived with a pothead. they can tell you the same thing, that it adversely affects brain function, and results in cognitive impairment. this sums it up, from someone who lived with and was married to a pothead, "I thought marijuana was harmless and natural, until I lived with someone who smoked it."
Yet no one else on this thread has conveniently not mentioned the pretty obvious aspect of mental incapacitation of regular pot smokers. The impairment is permanent if one has any experience with someone like that.
