Marijuana Legalization and a Troubling Rise in Heart Hospitalizations

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Legalization. No Comments on Marijuana Legalization and a Troubling Rise in Heart Hospitalizations

A new study analyzing more than 50 million US hospital discharge records found a significant rise in hospitalizations for heart attacks, heart failure and irregular heart rhythms following recreational marijuana legalization.

https://www.healthday.com/healthday-tv/cardiovascular-diseases/marijuana-legalization-and-a-troubling-rise-in-heart-hospitalizations

Marijuana legalization may be landing more people in the hospital with heart problems, a new study suggests.

Researchers analyzed more than 50 million hospital discharge records from 2012 to 2018, comparing Western US states, where recreational marijuana sales began in 2014, with other regions.

The study found that hospital admissions for several serious heart conditions rose faster following legalization.

For each year of sales, admission rates were nearly 4% higher for heart failure, 3% higher for heart attacks, and just over 2% higher for atrial fibrillation — an abnormal heart rhythm.

Rates for stroke, deep vein blood clots and tachycardia — a fast heartbeat — were also higher, but not statistically significant.

While the study cannot prove cause and effect, researchers say their findings “point to potential adverse effects of recreation legalization on population health.”

They recommend a cautious approach to legalization, along with continued collection of data on cardiovascular health outcomes.

This beginner friendly animation follows a cannabis seed through the complete germination process.

The video explains:

• What is stored inside a cannabis seed
• How the embryo and cotyledons support early growth
• Imbibition, the process of a seed absorbing water
• How warmth, moisture, and oxygen reactivate the seed
• How stored nutrients power the developing embryo
• Why the radicle, or first root, emerges before the shoot
• How cotyledons support the seedling before its true leaves begin photosynthesis
• Why saturated soil can deprive a germinating seed of oxygen

Once the radicle emerges from the seed coat, germination is complete and the seedling stage begins.

Estreia do Cook Session, a nova série da Reefer. Aqui eu preparo rangos canábicos do começo ao fim e mostro o que acontece em cada etapa: por que se faz, o que muda na receita e onde dá para errar.

Neste primeiro episódio, a base de quase tudo: a manteiga de cannabis. Descarboxilo a erva na airfryer, faço a infusão em fogo baixo e, no fim, lavo a manteiga com água para tirar a clorofila e o gosto de mato. Ela vai aparecer em muitos dos próximos episódios, então vale guardar a receita.

INGREDIENTES
400g de manteiga · 20g de flor · 500ml de água · 1 saco de forno (celofane)

Cocaine Made Me Lose 50,000 Pounds of Weed!

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Legalization. No Comments on Cocaine Made Me Lose 50,000 Pounds of Weed!

Step into the vintage counterculture era with Bruce Perlowin and Todd Denkin as they uncover one of the wild smuggling stories behind building an underground weed empire. In this unbelievable true crime moment from the 1970s, a 50,000-pound shipment of marijuana trafficking from Colombia hits an unexpected disaster when a captain storing cocaine panics and dumps the massive haul overboard. Long before modern cannabis legalization, recreational cannabis, and the regulated cannabis industry, operating as a drug kingpin meant navigating high-stakes risks, lost weed money, and chaotic encounters reminiscent of the infamous cocaine cowboys era.

This gripping look at cannabis culture and drug dealing explores the untold history of illicit cannabis smuggling before changing marijuana laws and medical marijuana reshaped the landscape. From navigating treacherous waters to managing cold cases and unpredictable crews, these vintage stories reveal the reality behind early trafficking networks and the sheer unpredictability of life outside the law.

The Hello Farms rehearing request is as reported. Aurora hasn’t accepted any offer. A cert denial isn’t a merits ruling. The latest Colorado pesticide batch and 226 stores are primary-verified; broader totals are omitted.

Why the Government Won’t Treat Weed Like Beer

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Legalization. No Comments on Why the Government Won’t Treat Weed Like Beer

Understanding marijuana rescheduling starts with knowing why alcohol and tobacco were excluded from the Controlled Substances Act.

Cannabis lawyer Tom Howard breaks down the statutory history of how marijuana was placed in Schedule I while alcohol and tobacco remained exempt. This distinction creates massive hurdles for businesses today, specifically regarding tax treatment. Moving to Schedule III does not automatically create an alcohol-style exemption because the plant remains subject to the Controlled Substances Act.

We analyze how Section 280E creates tax penalties for cannabis businesses that do not apply to breweries. True reform requires understanding why federal cannabis law functions this way and how current marijuana rescheduling efforts might actually change the playing field for operators.
