Can weed cause heart attacks?!
Question: Can weed cause heart attacks!?
I used to smoke a lot of weed and never had any problems, but quit for about a year!. I recently started smoking again but now I have anxiety attacks almost every time I get high, to the point where I feel like my heart is skipping beats or something!. I don't have any heart problems that I know of but I'm tired of the anxiety!. Feels like I can't breath, rapid heartbeat, tunnel vision, feels like I'm gonna pass out, etc!. anyway I'm tired of the anxiety and wonder if there's a way to get rid of it so I can just enjoy getting high again!.

Weed can "trigger" a heart attack, but only in someone who was already past due for a heart attack (eg!. high bad cholesterol, high triglycerides, over the age of 50, atherosclerosis, diabetes, etc) If you're not already past due for a heart attack, then no, it's not going to cause a heart attack!.

Heart attacks result from several different causes!.
One of them is constricted arteries, caused by plaque build up on the walls of the arteries!.
Another is blood clots that stop the flow of arterial blood!.
Smoking causes "hardening of the arteries", which can lead to C!.O!.P!.D!.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, which is a disease caused by lack of oxygen, that damages the heart!. Any time someone puts smoke into their lungs, they are depleting their body of oxygen!.
Oxygen is needed to keep the Heart functioning at it's peak performance!.
Smoking also depletes the brain of the oxygen it needs for maximum performance!.
If smoke depletes the lungs of oxygen, then the heart has to work harder, and harder to get the oxygen it needs in order to perform it's function!.
Any kind of smoke entered into the lungs, is damaging to the body in one way or the other!.
I hope this helps you understand the dangers of smoke inhalation!.

Marijuana causes your heart rate to go up as much as 50 percent while reducing blood pressure as much as 20 points!. This puts a strain on you heart and if your cardiovascular system is compromised yes there's an increased risk of a heart attack!.
As for the anxiety attacks they're one of the most common negative side effects of marijuana use!. Keep in mind pot is much stronger than it used to be!. A couple years back you had some high grade stuff if it had perhaps 15% THC content now it quite common to find weed with THC concentrations as high as 30%!. I'd try going easier on it, take smaller hits and don't hold them in as long!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
