Marijuana use raises risk of heart attack, heart failure and stroke

As someone who started using medical marijuana as an &quot;older person&quot; (though not as old as those in the study) I always find these studies frustrating.<p>I&#x27;m not sure if I can ever recall a single study that described the actual dosage being consumed. I have little doubt that someone taking hits off a bong all day long is going to be more likely to experience negative complications far sooner than someone eating a 5mg edible once a night.

Sounds toe like they&#x27;re just saying that inhaling smoke is bad. Good thing vaping and edibles are readily available.

I haven&#x27;t read the paper, but the article calls out smoking specifically and it&#x27;s bad effects.<p>To be fair: Inhaling &quot;smoke&quot;, aka combustion byproducts, of literally _anything_ is _definitely_ not good for you. I&#x27;m surprised when states began to legalize they even allowed for smoking it.<p>It also somehow lumps vaping in there, but vaping definitely does not produce tar and the other bad substances that combustion does... so I do need to go read the whole thing at some point.

Yet another clickbait title. Correlation is not causation.
