"Ever since describing a non Q wave acute myocardial infarction in 1979 after cannabis consumption, atrial fibrillation episodes, ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation, angina pectoris, and acute myocardial infarction have been reported and are directly related to consumption of this substance."
I'm not trying to say ibuprofen is better than weed or is not harmful. I'm well aware of the risks involved with most NSAID medications. And I'm certainly not advocating them so I'm not sure what justified these responses including studies on it? Like shit I like weed too cool them jets. I'm just saying chronic marijuana use is also harmful and although there are no studies on its direct link to heart conditions the information is available to make an educated assumption to that effect. Look at any other drug that increases ones heart rate significantly and tell me it's not hard on your cardio vascular system. Marijuana is no different in this regard.
Can you put the source of that quote? Is it a study? Doesn't seem like it
Caffeine also increases heart rate and you don't see healthy people dying of a heart attack just from drinking some coffee/tea everyday. Neither chronic cannabis users. A moderate increase in one's heart rate doesn't mean you're permanently damaging the cardiovascular system
