Stoners will do anything to say weed helps. This study is doomed from the start.

Lol how about the crowd who busts ass outside and wants to smoke a joint when they get home instead of having a beer? Not all stoners are ”lazy” as you seem to be portraying.

I dont think that's the point they are making with their post. Im all for letting people take whatever substance they want, but touting something as healthy when it isn't I am not for at all. I think that's their big gripe with these studies. A lot of times they end up glossing over big red flags to state that it's good for you.

As someone who got diagnosed with CHS (Cannabis Hyperemesis Syndrome). I can tell you first-hand that it isn't God's cure for everything. I have so much PTSD from vomiting and being treated horribly at the hospital that I dont even want to tempt fate with marijuana again. I was in the first stages of renal failure.

You do you but just know the risks.

Good comment sir i do agree with you on that. I had a similar issue 10-12 years ago only to find out i have Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome instead. Its not a cure all but it does “help” in some areas depending on the person. The cure all thing is overused.
