[quote:Formally CannabisUser1111111 75555655:MV80MTgzMTM5Xzc2MDU4NjY1X0UxQUY2Q0E4] A US backed org. Are you for real. lmao I'll refer you to a certain patent. Again, you silly man. 66030507 Expired it may be but the proof is there without even referring you to that tbo. Any big pharma will back so called studies etc etc. Wake the hell up man and stop with this tirade of total and utter bullshit you and so many other's like to spout. Are you aware that nature provides a cure for all ills unless they're man made then you really have to know your botanics but even then, you can save yourself a whole heap of pain by using alternative methods. I wish you well and a pain free existance too, how ever you choose to find your relief for a better quality of life. Why can't you let other's be and find a better use for your energy sonshine. You just an attention whore. :tomato: [/quote]

Young people who use marijuana frequently are more than twice as likely to have a stroke compared to those who don't use the drug at all, according to a new study.
The findings, which will be presented next week at the annual American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions meeting in Philadelphia, add to a growing body of research linking marijuana use to an increased risk of cardiovascular problems. The new study, which will also be published in an upcoming issue of the journal Stroke, is one of the first to specifically focus on the risk of stroke in young cannabis users (under age 45).
The researchers analyzed results from a national survey, called the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, which had published data on marijuana use and stroke incidence.
