According to a new study he cited, smoking or consuming cannabis can significantly reduce blood flow, similar to tobacco.
Bryan Johnson, the American entrepreneur known for spending millions to defy death, recently shared an Instagram reel discussing the potential health risks of marijuana use. According to a new study he cited, smoking or consuming cannabis can significantly reduce blood flow, similar to tobacco, with a 40% drop in blood flow for smokers and a 50% drop for those consuming it in edible form. The study measured flow-mediated dilation (FMD), which assesses the ability of blood vessels to dilate in response to increased blood flow.
Mr Johnson clarified that he's not opposed to weed but believes it can harm heart health and shorten lifespan. "This is not an anti-weed rant. This is a pro-blood flow PSA. Just like tobacco, cannabis may come at the cost of a healthy heart. So, whether it's in a pipe or a brownie, weed does not vibe with your longevity," he said in the viral video.
