      Appreciate video content! Forgive me for chiming in, I would love your thoughts. Have you researched - Mackorny Marijuana Paradise Blueprint (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for giving up smoking weed without the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate after many years got excellent results with it.

      Do you add tobacco when you smoke?

      But what about a little bit of tobacco added to weed?

    More people die each year from hippopotamus attacks than from weed. More people die each year from falling out of bed than from weed. In fact, no one has ever died from smoking weed. Meanwhile an average of 450k people die each year from cigarette smoking, yet tobacco is legal and marijuana is illegal. What's wrong with this picture?

      I came to this conclusion based off of the comment section, based off of my own knowledge/experiences and based off of debates. Cannabis is not entirely to blame for anxiety . I believe, It's the man made high amounts of THC that is the underlying issue. You might ask " what do you mean man made?" Well growers engineer higher amounts of THC into cannabis now so you can get higher and they also lower the amount of CBD during the process.
      And that right there can be an issue for most people specially to new consumers. CBD and THC co-exist from one another to help make you relax and enjoy the high. If one of the two chemicals are out of balance, your most likely going to have an uncomfortable experience. Either one giving you a certain high that you love but giving you anxiety during the session or another that relaxes you, but not give you the high that you want.
      It's a pretty technical thing just because it requires more balancing with things compared to alcohol. so everybody pretty much varies with consuming cannabis and that's why there's a lot of misconceptions with it. If you give a man who never dranked before a can of beer. He would probably be buzzed out . But if you give him a bottle of vodka and tell him to finish it . He would be vomitting, sweating, have mood swings and probably regret ever taking the bottle to begin with. That same scenario can be applied to cannabis aswell.
      If random people are consuming random amount of THC, then that in itself can be dangerous. It ruins your mental state by giving you high amounts of anxiety or psychosis. Know what your taking , start low with THC and do not go overboard with it. If you still feel uncomfortable with the lowest amount of natural unfucked with cannabis, then it's time to try CBD oil/flower , it has the lowest amount of THC. In fact I say start out with that first if your curious about cannabis. Be responsible in what you consume and you should be A okay! I believe drugs like this are not the issue, its the lack of knowledge that the school system/ public needs to update on and know. Consume responsibly and be safe 👍

    As a daily smoker who smokes a shit ton of weed every day and has a good paying fun job, no mental issues etc I get really frustrated at the way people see it. Just because something is not for you doesn't mean I can't handle and live with it, I can guarantee you it got me through some tough times in my life, don't think I would've graduated if I didn't lit a joint after school. Obviously I enjoy the recreational side of it aswell, nothing wrong with that either, but even just a little weed balances me out and makes me feel Ok, which is all I ever want in life tbh

    As an ex-cannabis user I don't judge anyone who decides to use it for therapeutic reasons. What I find extremely depressing is how some people actually need to consume pot to actually enjoy spending time together with their friends.
    The last sessions I had with my ex-pot buds were really eye-opening because everyone (except for myself) was high; watching them became progressively more depressing. They needed to consume drugs in order to enjoy playing videogames or watching a movie; I find that behavior truly ridiculous.
    That being said, it is absolutely outrageous that alcohol (which is potentially more dangerous than many other illegal drugs) and cigar are still considered legal when they have proven to kill people both in the long and short term.

      That's an extremely simple take on a complicated problem. If all drugs affected only the people taking them, that might be ok (and let the users deal with the health problems their stupidity brought unto them), but some drugs cause people to behave in ways that can easily hurt other people, whether through some mania or by impairing the user's judgement enough for them to go and do something stupid. But in evaluating each drug for potential to harm others, there are arguments against ALL drugs, including alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana, the big three labeled as "least destructive" by our society. So yeah. Way more complicated than a solution like, "just legalize it all," can handle.

    I'm also quite surprised that smoking marijuana would have no ill effects on one's lungs. In principle, inhaling any source of particulate or partial combustion products is going to be unhealthy to some degree, and contain potential carcinogens.
    Of course based on our evolution, especially in northern latitudes, we've likely lived with wood smoke in our environments for a very long time, and before that we would have still had dust and such, so I do understand that our bodies would be built to deal with a certain amount of it.
    Is Ingesting THC as effective for the potential benefits? Based on the reasons above, I assumed it would be safer. (and if nothing else, at least you're less likely to impose / impact other people around you who may not be interested in partaking in MJ / breathing in smoke).
    Oh, and for interest sake, I've never tried smoking, or drugs, and have only briefly tasted the occasional forms of alcohol, but have never had a full drink, nor been drunk. I'm not religious or anything, I just never saw the need / never had an interest, and figured these things weren't particularly healthy. (though I do enjoy eating chocolate).

      Jeff Chamberlain Of course we can still discuss at what level of harm we require to decide to make it illegal, similar to alcohol and such, especially if there are potential benefits for some people.

    • @davidalearmonth
      @davidalearmonth 10 років тому +4

      Jeff Chamberlain Healthcare Triage Ok, I've read the studies. Interesting. Certainly seems like Jeff's article is a more recent followup to the previous Sweden study. Makes sense to me. Was this not an article you felt was relevant Aaron?
      I'm also glad that the JAMA article discussed some of their unusual findings, and potential reasons proposed for them. (since one should always try to Explain the data, where possible)
      By the way Aaron, if your only response to my original comment was going to be "Go read the study...", then you really shouldn't have bothered. I was intending to open up discussion with other viewers. Your statement isn't really a discussion, and again your potential tone is more dismissive than anything. Similar to your flippant comment to me previously. I know that you likely don't have time to respond / discuss all the comments posted to your videos, I can completely understand that. So I would advise that you should Not bother responding, unless you are going to make a serious attempt. Try to act more like a real person wanting to discuss a topic, if you are going to. Even a short comment such as "I was surprised too, but this appears to be what the data has found" would have been more friendly. (assuming that is true. I would think that as a Doctor, you would also agree that breathing in carcinogens can be harmful. Even your articles linked talk about this, in case you were unaware of the chemistry involved, since I don't know your full background.)
      I guess I'm saying that you have a public image now. And not that you should compromise scientific integrity, but that people will want to interact with you, and that the way you do this will win or lose viewers, and will win or lose people's opinions on the science, to some degree. Just look at the image that Hank and John put forth on their channels.

      actually once you legalise it big bussiness will crush out smaller growers and lobby so that they can turn the marijuana into as much as a fuck-fest as the rest of american agriculture. Legalised for medical use (where all you need to do to get a prescription for it is tell a doctor you have a headache) keeps the growth and sale of it in just enough of a gray area that the potential legal costs for a big, nation-owning corporate conglomerate outweigh the potential benefit of destroying people's lives for a quick buck and the bussiness remains relatively local and easier to control.

    • @Goabnb94
      @Goabnb94 10 років тому

      I'm fine for people wanting to smoke it, and it does have medical benefits. However, they need to be aware that a)it is addictive (yes caffeine and alcohol are too, but so is marijuana), b)it does impair brain function like alcohol so no DUI, and c)it shouldn't be sold to kids, and thus it needs to be regulated.

    • @IceMetalPunk
      @IceMetalPunk 10 років тому

      Goabnb94 I have very little problem with medical marijuana. However, we have first-hand data to show that doctors don't often care about whether their patients' medical marijuana cards are real or even needed. On top of that, it's possible to grow marijuana that has low levels of THC, so you get the medical benefit without the detrimental effects. I'd be just fine with that strain being legal--but of course, that's not what most people want when they advocate legalizing weed. They want the high. And that's where I say, "No, screw you. You want to mess with your brain, then you are a danger to society and deserve to be taken out of it until you stop."

    @MrTeff999 4 роки тому +1

    Dear Healthcare Triage, Comparing something bad to something worse is not a valid justification for legalizing it. And the question isn't whether or not to replace alcohol with weed. The question is, should we add a weed problem to an existing alcohol problem. I'm a child of the sixties. In the seventies I grew weed, I sold weed and I smoked weed. Now, as I look back on my life, I see clearly that weed delayed me from making progress. When I was in college, my grades suffered. It clouded my thinking. I made stupid choices. I never finished my degree. Consequently, I ended up settling for a career I never enjoyed, and I didn't have the life I might have had. As I think about people I know, I see that the ones who never used drugs accomplished more, and were more satisfied with how their lives turned out than than the ones who indulged themselves. One of the terms we used for getting stoned back in the day was getting stupid. "Dude, ya wanna get stupid? I got some killer weed." Flash forward to now, I have a 24-year old stepson who started smoking weed in the 10th grade. A year later he dropped out of sports. Then he quit going to school. He's never been able to hold a job for more than a couple months. Finally, after eight years of living in a fog and going nowhere in his life, he told his mom that he thought pot wasn't good for him and he has tried to stop but can't. Well, at least he doesn't have a drinking problem, right? Maybe you should update this video after the consequences to society are better understood.

  • @haute39234
    @haute39234 10 років тому +5

    I found the pulmonary study to be very misleading.
    They're really studying how limited smoke inhalation doesn't adversely affect pulmonary function. (cynical note: but such a redundant study won't get the funding dollars or a paper published).
    The negative affects on lung capacity come from the sheer volume of chronic smoke inhalation. And the volumes either group were exposed to are on opposite extremes, as to make the conclusions obvious. (Tobacco users reported smoking multiple cigarettes a day, while marijuana users reported smoking a few times a month.)
    They're simply reporting that given *current usage patterns*, marijuana is less harmful to pulmonary function than cigarettes.
    (cynical note: but if marijuana were legalized I have no doubt that cigarette companies would jump on it and eventually, after their brand loyalties are established, create weaker and weaker joints to drive up sales. Thereby equalizing smoke inhalation volumes and negating this study).
    FYI I'm all for decriminalization of marijuana, and think smoking should be banned (or whatever the equivalent is of making smoking illegal-ish)

      ***** That's not where organized crime started in america. There's a large amount of organized crime activity in america going back to the 1880s. Gangs of New York anyone? You're correct though that banning alcohol led to a dramatic rise in the smuggling of that drug in the US.
      Should also be pointed out that the US spends $50 billion on the War on Drugs that started in the 70s under president Nixon which has yet to stop people from using illegal drugs and instead of just legalizing and regulating drugs like every country should do, our prolonged "temperance" movement is causing thousands of deaths from drug over-doses and criminal activity in Mexico and the US.
      It's also the #1 crime sentence in the US and accounts for almost 1/4 of all incarcerated persons and half of all newly incarcerated persons. Inmates cost $32k per year to keep locked up which is an extra $48 billion on top of the $50 billion we spend fighting the drug war.

    Everyone makes it sound so serious.
    Legality, health risks, "you're ruining your life and America!".
    Man, I just want to be able to go home, light up a bowl, and watch cartoons after work without worrying about being sent to jail. How exactly is that negatively affecting anybody?
    Just legalize the stuff, you prudes.

    its obvious that any negative effects that people are questioning about marijuana can only be achieved if you smoke like an ounce every day, i just wanna smoke a joint without being locked up or yelled at by my parents

      Oscer Larke no, people can get addicted from smoking weed once, also people who are prone to mental illnesses can get schizophrenia and depression just from smoking once.

      Casper O’Neil only mentally addicted, same way people get mentally addicted to jacking off and gaming, you could stop if you have enough willpower. That depression stuff from smoking once is bullshit though.
