True, or bogus?

WHO ARE YOU???

who are these fuckin noobs that come on here with 10 posts and question me? i've given out more good advice to people then your useless input has contributed, i dont need to bother with you because the people who have actually been on these forums for a while know who deserves respect and who doesnt.

thats exactly what i was getting at in my first post, it's not like you stoners would read "mens health" in the first place so why take an out of context article with no real basis or source as PLyTheMan has clearly proved and get up tight over it? it DOESNT MATTER

 

fallout55, your name isnt based off the band fall out boy..... is it?

 

The reason I originally made the topic is because I have a rare heart condition. I won't go into technicalities, but apparently if I exert myself too much, I can cut off blood flow (or something) and I will die. With that said, I ran cross country and track at 110% for 8 straight years, and the most I ever felt was headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, etc. A top cardiologist said I don't have much to worry about.

Still, seeing a correlation between pot smoking and heart attacks caught my eye. But, isn't anyone under stress via sports, work, health, etc producing a high pulse rate?

I have a friend who despises pot. He also skis every day (lives in Colorado), pays $100s on equipment each year, and risks his life every time. Earlier this year, he slammed into a tree and needed extensive heart surgery. Lately, I've been wondering exactly how hypocritcal he sounds when he gives me shit for smoking pot. Yet when he goes on and on about skiing, I don't sigh or say "here we go again." Hmm...

 

weed accelerates your heart beat, if you are in bad shape or have the risk of suffering a heart attack, it can increase your chances, just as if any other thing that accelerates your heart beat.

 

Cry?
You want a whaburger and some french cries?

Want me to call the whambulance?

Aww heres a tissue.

*Snif snif

 

haha so does exercies, buts its one of the best ways to lower your risk of having a heart attack.

Also reliving stress, lowers your chance greatly.

Don't tell me weed cant do that. : P



Oh yeah my name isnt influnced by that band, I don't like them... at all.

 

good

 

Cardiac health is an individdual thing.

So if you lead a couch potato life, smoke marlboros, Pig out on red meat
and drink lots of beer, Yes, I guess that doobie could be bad for you.

If you have a healty life style perhaps you could afford a litttle abuse.

Some people get heart palpitations, some dont.
If your paranoid, yes the heart rate will climb.

If your heart is truly fucked up the doctor will say: "no sex".

How about that ?

 

So by the same reasoning, if your a healthy middelaged guy, but have lots of stress, weed can help lower your risk.
