Study Finds Link Between Cannabis Use and Increased Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke

A recent study funded in part by the National Institutes of Health suggests that using cannabis, regardless of the method of consumption, could increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. The study found that daily cannabis use, particularly through smoking, was associated with a 25% higher risk of heart attack and a 42% increased chance of stroke, with THC being a potential factor. While a local dispensary owner expresses concern about the impact on his business, health officials emphasize the need for people to be aware of the health risks associated with cannabis use.

"Government crackdown forces closure of popular local cannabis dispensary chain"

New York State has shut down a chain of local cannabis dispensaries, owned by David Tulley, after investigators found that they were selling products without a license and to underage customers. The dispensaries, operating under the name "I'm Stuck," were caught illegally processing, packaging, and selling unregulated cannabis products. Despite repeated warnings from the Office of Cannabis Management, Tulley continued to ignore regulations. The state attorney general's office will seek penalties against Tulley, his companies, and the building owners, potentially resulting in fines amounting to millions of dollars.
