Regular Pot Smokers Have Twice The Likelihood To Experience Stroke: Studies

Posted on November 26, 2019November 26, 2019 by Theresa Talmage

Nothing good is done to your brain or heart by smoking pot, if the recent two study results are to be taken into consideration. Individuals who smoke pot frequently are over twofold as prone to experience a stroke in comparison with individuals who do not participate, as discovered by the first study. While the second study found that they are more prone to be hospitalized for a severely irregular heart rhythm as well. An electrophysiologist from NY-located Mount Sinai St. Luke’s, Dr. Ranjit Suri, said, “The results are thought-provoking at a point when there is a huge push to make marijuana legal, and the herb & its metabolites are being endorsed as a universal remedy for numerous ailments and medical conditions.”

The foremost study discovered that non-smokers using marijuana over 10 days a month are almost 2.5 times more prone to experience a stroke vs. non-users. Earlier studies have demonstrated that marijuana can elevate blood clotting and make the arteries constricted, both leading to heightened stroke risk, ass aid by Tarang Parekh, study’s lead author.

Scientists, in the 2nd study, discovered that individuals who use cannabis impulsively have an up to 50% elevated odds of being hospitalized due to arrhythmia—an inconsistent heartbeat that can elevate risk of heart attack, heart failure, or stroke. Doctors require asking new heart and stroke patients regarding their marijuana usage to better enlighten their treatment alternatives, as concluded by both studies. Nevertheless, both researches were observational and didn’t found a straight cause-and-effect association between these conditions and marijuana use, as noted by Suri.

Likewise, males using marijuana minimum once a week have twofold odds of seeing their better-half’s pregnancy terminate miscarriage, in comparison to those non-users, as proposed by the new study. Miscarriages associated with frequent male pot use were likely to happen within 8 Weeks of conception that supports doubts that marijuana use harms sperm in some crucial manner, said Alyssa Harlow, the lead researcher.
