I thought it would be a good idea to write about what Cannabis can not do to you, instead of the wonderful things it can do for you. It seems to me that not many people actually know the real reasons why you can never OD and die from consuming Cannabis.
Reason #5 Why Cannabis will never kill you is: Cannabis is the most non-toxic plant on earth. Cannabis is the only plant on earth that has all of the nutritional value as a one plant food source. Every part of Cannabis is edible.
Reason #4 Why Cannabis will never kill you is: Cannabis will never contribute to a heart attack, stroke or cancer. It has been well known for many years that Cannabis has many medicinal effects. Cannabis dilates blood vessels and arteries, essentially doing the opposite of what nicotine does. The dilation of blood vessels allows more blood flow, allowing for faster healing process and puts less strain on the heart. Cannabis will never cause cancer and in particular, lung cancer. Cannabis smokers have a one fold less chance of getting cancer even with traditional (pipe or bong) high does chronic use. Cannabis opens up the airways in the lungs. It's no big surprise to know that folks that have Asthma, smoke Cannabis
Reason#3 Why Cannabis will never kill you is: Concentration. I've read many times in articles that people get a stiffer possession charge because they have a concentrate of either Cannabis oil or Hashish. Cannabis is the most non-toxic substance on the planet. Even with high doses, Cannabis can never kill you. A very interesting example of this fact is the 1972 Shafer report was a real world comparison to see how toxic our most common substances really are. Cocaine has a 2:1 ratio, meaning that it takes two doses of Cocaine to get you high and the third one may kill you if done in a short period of time. Heroin has a 3:1 ratio, where the body can handle 3 doses of the drug and the fourth one may kill you. Even Alcohol has a ratio of 20:1...Cannabis has a ratio of 465,000:1. You would have to eat or smoke some insane amount of 263lbs in 15 minutes. Even though the study showed that Cannabis was not harmful, it remains in schedule I in the U.S. and schedule II in Canada to this day.
Reason #2 Why Cannabis will never kill you is: In the case of drugs like cocaine, the brain is flooded with dopamine. When dopamine levels become toxic, the brain will shut down to save its self...this is called coma. Cannabis keeps dopamine levels at a constant and normal level so coma can never occur.
Reason #1 Why Cannabis will never kill you is: It never affects the part of your brain that controls breathing and heart rate. The part of your brain that is responsible for this called the Medulla Oblongata, or called the Medulla for short. The Medulla is the lower half of your brain stem. Mobsters would say" give him two in the back of the head.." The reason for saying this is because if the Medulla is damaged severely like say from a bullet, your guaranteed a kill. Many drugs (pharmaceuticals as well) affect heart rate and breathing. Morphine depresses breathing and heart rate, while Cocaine will make your heart beat very fast. Cannabis will never affect the Medulla so that breathing and heart rate will not stop.
