It is known to pose health risks, including marijuana use disorder, mental health issues, problems with brain function and elevated heart rate and blood pressure.According to two independent preliminary studies, which will be presented at the American Heart Association&#039;s Scientific Sessions 2023, people who use marijuana regularly are at an increased risk of heart failure, stroke and heart attack.The first study found that daily use of marijuana could raise heart failure risk to 34% compared to those who do not use the drug. Researchers made the finding after surveying the frequency of marijuana use among 156,999 people who were free from heart failure at the time of enrollment.After nearly four years, around 2% of the participants developed heart failure.
