I’m talking about any thing that can be produced from cannabis of any strain, not laced and not something that’s glycol-based or a dry-plant vaporizer; and consumed via inhalation of it’s smoke or digestion (ex: edibles). Not discussing the legality of it or any other unnecessary nuances, just the benefits and harm of it. Studies are extremely encouraged btw. =p

Review from Canadia finds: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_ylo=2020&q=cannabis+health++review&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&as_rr=1#d=gs_qabs&t=1731272057908&u=%23p%3DZQNk8wwxTvkJ

Legalization has been associated with increased adult hospital attendances for psychiatric distress and vomiting, unintentional ingestion of edible cannabis products by children and hospitalizations for cannabis use disorders in adults. There is conflicting evidence on whether cannabis‐impaired driving has increased since legalization. There is suggestive evidence that presentations to emergency departments with psychoses and cannabis use disorders may have increased since legalization.

Evidence of slight increases in psychosis, consistent with hypothesis that cannabis can trigger episodes in people with pre-existing conditions. Evidence that taking too much is uncomfortable.

finds that strong cannabis might make mental health worse.

Realistically inhaling it is the most harmful thing if you’re not prone to bad brain.

People have used it for a long time without serious harm but the higher dose modern strains are increasingly associated with stuff like hyperemises syndrome. So uh as with all things enjoy in moderation, we are all but food for worms, it’s probably safer than driving a car or whatever.
