The condition, cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS), is marked by severe symptoms like vomiting and nausea that can persist for a week and threaten health.
According to Dr. Maria Isabel Angulo, CHS now affects an estimated 2.75 million Americans yearly, particularly among men aged 16 to 34.
Marijuana potency has increased dramatically, from about 4 percent of THC in 1995 to an average of 17 percent by 2017 and even higher today.
The case of a 22-year-old Canadian woman highlights the devastating effects of CHS, including severe dehydration and heart problems leading to her death.
