Disclaimer: This information is to the best of my knowledge true, but I am human and live in a society with a culture and dogma and indoctrination. There are many examples throughout history of doctors believing what they did was helpful, but it wasn’t. And the opposite has happened where a doctor found a truth and nobody believed him/her until years after that doctor died. More importantly, everyone is different and everyone’s situation is different, whether that be their diet, genes, living situation, local environment, weather, profession, and hobbies. So what works for one person may not work for another. This health information is available for you to evaluate and choose if and how you want to apply it for your own body. This video and the comments do not represent a doctor patient relationship since I am not able to fully know your history, physical examination, lab results, and imaging. This information is provided for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute providing medical advice or professional services. Most importantly, listen to your body. It tells you what it needs and lets you know how things are going.
Here I share my scientific knowledge and my personal experiences with caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, cannabis (marijuana), and psychoactive mushrooms (amanita muscaria). These substances alter our perception of the universe and ourselves by acting on our brain/mind. Each one has some benefits and drawbacks. Some have more benefits than drawbacks, and some have many drawbacks and hardly any benefits. I share with you my experiences and opinions regarding these substances and how I have come to view them and use them as tools.
Some interesting research articles about cannabis are listed below. The first is the elevated risk of heart attack and stroke in chronic users of cannabis. And the second is the effects of THC from cannabis on blood vessel flow through the arteries.
