There’s a bit of bad health news on the horizon for dope smokers.

A study published shows a strong correlation between smoking marijuana and heart issues.

THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, the psychoactive component of marijuana that makes you high) binds to cannabinoid receptors in the vasculature and is implicated in cardiovascular disease.

NBC News reported that the study, done among close to 160,000 people (courtesy the UK Biobank), compared the health of 11,000 who smoke marijuana at least once a month to two other groups: 122,000 in the same age group (40 to 69) who do not smoke cannabis at all and 23,000 who smoke it less than once a month.

Age, gender and body mass index (things that also affect heart disease risk) were taken into account.

CBD can help individuals regenerate their bodies and minds from the inside out. Numerous individuals are taking advantage of the Farm Bill for additional knowledge about marijuana (CBD). Cannaleafz CBD Gummies provide the same calming benefits as other hemp-based products but in a convenient gummy form. 

Cannaleafz CBD Gummies are a natural method to consume cannabis on a regular basis. In a matter of days, these tasty gummy bears may give the necessary support for an effective endocannabinoid system (the network found throughout the bodies). 

Marijuana Stocks To Watch While The Sector Is Down

Are marijuana stocks on your radar after mixed earnings from Canadian cannabis stocks? To close last week’s trading the cannabis sector began to experience some upward momentum, especially with Canadian pot stocks. In 2022 most cannabis stocks have dropped to new lows this month along with most of the overall market. For new investors looking to gain exposure to the cannabis industry, this could be time to start watching for an entry. Although many analysts predict the market could continue lower it could be time to make a watchlist before a recovery.

The study’s findings are in line with previous research that has found cannabis consumption can improve sleep outcomes.

A new study published in the Canadian Pharmacists Journal offers further evidence that individuals with sleep disorders, including insomnia, may benefit from cannabis treatment.

A retrospective chart review was conducted at Hybrid Pharm, a community pharmacy in Ottawa, and included patients who were interested in, or already using, medical cannabis for sleep disorders, according to the study’s abstract.

The show, which premiered in 2001, follows the lives of a group of trailer park residents in a fictional Sunnyvale Trailer Park in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. The first twelve seasons of live-action, two seasons of animated content and a movie trilogy are available worldwide.

If you've seen the show you'll remember how passionate the guys are about weed and their hilarious attempts to grow it.

Focus V line of product offerings is now available in Canada, now exclusively distributed in Canada by Turning Point Brands Canada. The deal means that all Focus V offerings, like the just released CARTA 2, can only be purchased by smoke shops & other retail entities in Canada through Turning Point.

Focus V retains its right to sell direct-to-consumers based in Canada. The deal solidifies Focus V as the leading ancillary cannabis products company with a focus on superior technology.

With the demand for portable smoking & dabbing devices at a record high, the partnership formed organically. With consumers outside of the U.S. turning to hash extracts, both Focus V & Turning Point expects those consumers to rely on heated elements to activate the hash.

The CBSA is reminding Canadians that bringing cannabis into or out of Canada is illegal. The memo comes as international mail centres across the country are experiencing processing delays due to cannabis imports without valid permits.

Seizures of cannabis at Canada’s border crossings have soared through the pandemic.

That's prompted the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) to issue a notice to Canadians that although the drug has been legalized and regulated in Canada, and some parts of the United States, it remains illegal to carry or ship it across the border.

It was supposed to make billions upon billions as an industry, and the investors were chasing millions of their own.

It was supposed to make billions upon billions as an industry, and the investors were chasing millions of their own. Instead, thousands of Canadians were left holding empty bags, having lost jobs, savings and opportunities to the promise of fast money and an industry that could never have possibly matched the hype.

How did (almost) everyone get the weed industry so wrong? And what happened to those Canadians who bought into the hype?
