Correlation =/= causation
Some of this is pretty intuitive.
Frequent inhalation of smoke from burning compounds is likely to have secondary side effects.

Why do people become so defensive when it comes to marijuana?
Alcohol has side effects.
Cigarettes have side effects.
MJ has side effects.
OTC medication has side effects.

So did they isolate the use of edibles to cardiovascular risks, or just throw it in there to carry on the war on drugs. Needs to be war on big pharma.

It’s because in states like Kentucky, legislators who are legislating morality instead of common sense practices will use this study to prevent legalization.
I’d be curious how many folks have untreated, underlying cardiac issues like HBP or tachycardia though. I’m sure the rise in heart rate most experience can cause issues, especially with daily use and high concentrations.

oh idk maybe its the fact that our government has lied to Americans about the dangers of marijuana for a century. Just a wild arse guess though.

B/c they want to pretend "flower" is ok, and harmless.
Smoke all you want, I don't GAS.
But face the facts that you'll have lower testosterone, short-term memory issues, and increased weight gain while you "partake".
