A recent study supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has found that regular smoking of cannabis could considerably increase the risk for heart attack and stroke. The study analyzed data from nearly 435,000 American adults, marking it as one of the broadest studies to examine the link between cannabis use and cardiovascular health. Approximately three-quarters of the participants indicated they consumed cannabis by smoking, while around one-quarter utilized other methods such as vaping or ingesting the substance.
