As cannabis gains popularity with an increase in medical marijuana approvals across the U.S., much of the public enthusiasm overlooks the associated risks. Studies show considerable dangers, such as a 2.8-fold higher risk of death for individuals with Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) and connections between CUD and schizophrenia. Additionally, research indicates that possessing a medical marijuana card may not improve conditions like pain or anxiety and can contribute to problematic cannabis use. Therefore, while cannabis may offer benefits for some, it also poses substantial health concerns that merit attention.
Cannabis enthusiasts often highlight its positive features, yet evidence-based applications remain limited, suggesting a discrepancy between enthusiastic promotion and actual efficacy.
