420 is here (not really for Ohio): How far do Ohioans have to drive to get legal marijuana?

Quick Glance: Experts Caution Against Risks of Marijuana Consumption

The 420 day, also known as 'Weed Day,' is celebrated, but experts warn about the health implications of marijuana consumption.

While 24 US states have legalized marijuana for recreational use, research raises concerns about the potential harm cannabis can do to the body.

Studies suggest that marijuana smoke poses health risks, including an increased risk of stroke and heart attack, as well as links to heart issues.

Despite some medicinal benefits of marijuana, such as reducing seizures in epilepsy, there are warnings about the risks of excessive consumption, especially among adolescents and pregnant women.
