Okay, so Daily Fail (UK) posted this about 11 hours ago: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2937760/The-man-killed-cannabis-53-year-old-died-four-joint-day-habit-triggered-fatal-heart-condition.html So as always with British cannabis death claims, I'm sceptical. We had two deaths in Bournemouth last year that turned out to be pure bollocks and this already smells like bacon. But does anyone know anything about cannabis cardiotoxicity? And if so, can it really kill you? I mean, it won't change anything for me, but it's good to know I guess Safe as botulism guys
If you over do ANYTHING it can have a bad outcome. Anyone who has died from weed is a dipshit. Im sure its possible.. If you have low blood pressure already then you probably shouldnt use cannabis or other depressants.
Oooooh, one thing I did just misread though was the fact that he said he'd been using cannabis alternative (legal high?) instead of weed! Makes you wonder
Article said he was using a cannabis substitute. Probably Synthetic Marijuana. Thats what killed him. Not the Cannabis.
If you have an existing heart problem you can die, especially when cannabis can double one's heart rate. It is a no brainer.
I was born with one of valves covered, but my doctor hasn't said anything about cannabis, just cigarettes. He knows that I smoke weed. Maybe there just isn't enough information out there.
yeah exactly there's not enough research on it. it's funny too, the same government that claims we have no research and uses that as one of their primary excuses when questioning the medicinal qualities of marijuana, is the same government that doesnt accept any funding for marijuana research
Most of the weed in the UK is garbage from my understanding, so it would surprise me that they would have the first "victims" before we did here in Cali.
he died from the spice/k2 no ones really died in 10k years why would it happen now especially with all the war on cannabis there is and with money involved nowadays it's obvious what they're trying to do
You may want to check that fact out lol True the resin "soapbars" r pisspoor, but take it from me the flowers are not.
Very true and I've seen a few people from there post pretty good oil. I was just making a point that their quality on average is worse (than lets say compared to west coast US), so it's unlikely that their herb is causing that many more problems than ours (using their logic in regards to their fear of "skunk" and high THC weed).
If anyone could die from weed, id be dead, trust me. Ive tried for a coma, it's not happening. The more you smoke and eat, the more you can smoke and eat. I smoked 5 joints in an hour the other night, passed my brother a hit, he passed it back, i went to pass it and he was passed out in his own lap, drooling lol Lucky SOB I was super jealous! ~ poke
fwiw . this news paper is one of the worst scaremongering gutter press outfits in the uk. Also the dude died after stopping smoking canna and moving onto a legal high. If you read the article you will start to see why we have major problems in the uk with even getting canna discussed never mind legalised or decrimilised .. Headline. should read Man dies after stopping smoking canna and moving onto some legal loophope fake untested non weed shit sold over the counter in a frigging head shop. F**k the daily fail ..
I ate 5 ounces at once one day. My wife made me a few batches of cookies but made the mistake of not getting me stuff for munchies. So i ate edibles, got the munchies and then dont remember much after that. For like two whole days i was stuck in a perma drool mode, my wife was so worried she thought i had a stroke. But after two days of layin there grunting and drooling i was up smokin js and makin edibles again. I vaguely remember telling sassy melassy i thought i was seriously dyin and her gettin pissed and asking why i did that to meself. Moral of the story? If you get the munchies dont eat super potent edibles man.... ~ poke
Alcohol kills thousands of people each year, but I never see any fear mongering newspaper articles about that.
It has never been proven that marijuana has ever killed anyone from smoking it. Now doing stupid shit at the same time??? Maybe.
