Cannabis Use Could Skyrocket Your Cancer Risk... 5 X increase

[imhotep]

A study conducted by the USC Head and Neck Center, part of Keck Medicine of USC and the USC Caruso Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, indicates a link between cannabis use, the most widely used illicit substance globally, and a higher risk of developing head and neck cancer.

A large, multicenter study has revealed that adults with cannabis dependence, known as cannabis use disorder, are 3.5 to 5 times more likely to develop head and neck cancer than those who do not use the substance.

“This is one of the first studies — and the largest that we know of to date — to associate head and neck cancer with cannabis use,” said Niels Kokot, MD, a head and neck surgeon with the USC Head and Neck Center and senior author of the study. “The detection of this risk factor is important because head and neck cancer may be preventable once people know which behaviors increase their risk.”

Don't take everything with sarcasm. The smoke from cannabis may even be worse than tobacco smoke. Cannabis smoking is typically unfiltered and involves deeper inhalation compared to tobacco. Additionally, cannabis burns at a higher temperature than tobacco, increasing the risk of cancer-causing inflammation.

The researchers compiled 20 years of data through a health research network of 64 healthcare organizations that accounted for more than 90 million individuals. They tracked cancer cases from one to five years of cannabis use.

There’s very limited research comparing the health effects of edibles and smoking head-to-head.

TFS. Even smoking cigarettes was considered healthy in the early days. I always thought cannabis might have some health issues as well.
