Marijuana As Diuretic?

I read that marijauna works as a diuretic. Is this true and how does it work?

Diuretics work by taking sodium in the blood and binding it to the diuretic such as hydrochlorothiazide and furosemide(brand name Lasix) then it becomes much easier to remove in the kidneys allowing for less salt (sodium) retention and therefore less water retention. Taken as a daily dose may help reduce high blood pressure because you would have lower sodium averages in the blood stream over time. Marijuana (active ingredient THC) does not and cannot act as a diuretic in that sense. I haven't seen what you read but if you post it up here I'll take a look at it.

All I can tell you is it definitely helps me poop.
It just feel so relaxed after a nice smoke, it comes naturally.
