Marijuana Causes Bad Stomach Problems, Etc.

Try a juice Cleanse for 10 days I just did it. I lost 11 LBS in 10 days and 2% body fat index. I watched Fat Sick and Almost dead on Netflix and wanted to try it. My girl and I did and we both noticed the juice after stopping. I now juice everyday and love it. No better way to flush your own soil then a juice cleanse. Try it. You plants thrive after being flushed while living in a pot for 3 months. how about your body? How many years have you been feeding it crap without a break?
The mind needs a vacation so does the muscles and now it is time for your cells. Dont smoke either.

But no link you can tie to it other than a article you belive is true.

Smoking 30+ years and no ill affects at all.I have IBS and I call bs on this crap.

yeah guys sorry i have been smoking for 7 years and i just turned 21. i was also just diagnosed with IBS. i believe that weed helps great for stomach pains so dont take my advise because its just my opinion. but hmm just thought i would put my 0.02 cents in the pot.

Cannaboid receptors have now been found to be the no.1 "stimulant" to encourage "homeostasis" in the human body...I dunno how it happened, but over the hundreds of millions of years of life on Earth, somehow evolved life learned that cannabis and its chemicals encourage "the body" to behave in a beneficial way. Ie. feel sick, smoke a joint, hungover, smoke a joint, depressed, smoke a joint, restless, smoke a joint, cant sleep, smoke a joint...

See what Im getting at..?? Every single cell in your body has a "cannabis" receptor...and every single cell when "cannabis" is in the bloodstream behaves in a beneficial way...

Cannabis is a medicine to some, but only cos conveniently it is a cure all...

Smoking doesnt make people feel sick unless theyre supposed to, in which case it usually points to something else...whether it be an underlying problem or whatever. I always smoke when the body aint working right and the (actual non-biased) science seems to suggest my gut feeling is real...

Free the plant and free our species...would a headache ever exist or stress people if you could just smoke a joint instead of popping 1 gram worth of pill that takes 30-45 mins to work?

Smoking the plant dried from your garden would be too "non-profitable".

Think about it...

I smoke to ease my Crohns, I've taken breaks from smoking(2 weeks to a month at a time) and can say they were the worst times for me. Living in a non med state makes it interesting, but F'em my health comes first. My doc keeps pushing to get me on steroidal/anti-inflamatory drugs but I've refused. I am most likely going to start them soon to 1: appease him; 2: have ample reason to get a med card once it's legal( soon,fingers crossed).In the past before being diagnosed I always smoked when I felt nauseous, but like was said previously-everyone is different.

Only time pot actually gave me bad indigestion, constipation, bloating, and gas, was when I ate an eighth raw.

Man, I was really shocked when I found this thread on another site. I was having bad problems with my stomach; pain, gas, bloating, indigestion, burping, nausea, loose stools, blockage, sometimes a little fever, etc, etc.
I am a long time mj smoker & I smoke pretty much daily. About 3 months ago, I started to get indigestion, gas, bloating, etc, etc, etc. Not having health insurance, I have tried everything and I was getting pretty scared I had somethiong really terrible. I was about to pull out $4000 from my IRA for a colonoscopy to get myself checked.
Then I found this thread on a med site about others, like me, who are having reactions to pot. If any of you are having stomach problems, or lung problems, it may help you:

*only time i had stomach probs w/ MJ was when i just dipped nugs in chocolate and ate it... now i get the farts

I too had stomach problems when I was smoking long ago in California. I wa as up front with my doctor and he did a toxcolity test and found out that my smoke had traces of malithion (spelling?)....the bug killing agent and another man made chemical. Guess I'm part bug because that stuff sent my stomach into tail spins.

I have not had a problem since growing my own and keeping the grow totally organic.

oh shit malithion is NASTY stuff.... you gotta handle that shit with gloves and very very carefully... never seen anything kill shit so fast... yep nasty fuckin shit keep it organic!!!

I agree with what many are saying throughout this thread!!
Probably a reaction to a pesticide, or something your eating, or even a side effect from an OC or other Script Med you may be taking...

All the processed food you eat and any and ALL Pharmas = POISON!!

I usually try to remain nuetral when it comes to such discussions -- I just read and absorb --
But I'm getting really tired of MJ getting such a bad rap!! It's the most USEFUL plant on this planet!!!
It has been here - growing naturally forever -- It is Medicine that is COMPLIMENTARY to the human body!

I could go on a rant, but I'm not going to.....
I just had to put in my 2 cents worth and point out that before you point the finger at MJ --
Why don't you read the ingredients that are in the food your eating -- google them -- It will be educational for you!
That goes for any script you take as well!! ....even the water you drink (if you don't have a well)- read about the Flouride in your water supply.....It's all POISON!!

Why are you saying your problem is a reaction to pot? You smoked for years, recently started having stomach problems. Take the colonoscopy because it's not the pot, as you will find out when you quit smoking it. A good idea is to try a raw food detox diet. Detoxify your body and cleanse your GI with healthy organic foods. After the first week you will feel 10x better, at the end of the month when you are finished you will be a new man/woman.
I still dont see why you think the pot is hurting your stomach, was it because you read that article?? I can show you articles that prove pot will help your stomach pains... let me see what dr bob has related to GI disorders.
Crohns disease
GERD
Ulcers
There you go, read those and your problems wont be related to pot anymore. I really hope you try the detox cleanse, then the colonoscopy. It is FOOLISH to think smoking pot will do those things to your body. It's the pepsi and cheetos you ingest after smoking that is the problem, good luck.

I actually had the same problems with pot. It wasn't my diet (I tend to eat healthy, its fun to cook while high) and I figured what my problem was.

Inhalation. I have been smoking for a while but, out of a very nice Roor until it broke recently. After that, I was using a piece. I tended to swallow more smoke with the piece than the water based kinds of paraphernalia.

Bottom line to my rambling? Don't swallow your smoke, inhale it. It fixes the stomach problem 100%.

My husband has been thru ALL these tests different times with even having a small camera swallowed to see wat is causing his pain, possible cancer and nothin found! Exploritory surgery even and we cant find nothin. So anyone know how to deal with this? Has had stomach problems over the years off and on, but the severe pain, vomitting and doctor visits and hospital stays are turning up nothin. Was once told recently that he has overdose effects from THC? Hmmmmmm........any help would be ap[preciated!!

you cannot overdose on THC don't listen to that bullshit. all the problems he is experiencing is likely caused by all the shitty food we're forced to eat, all the shitty lifestyle habits, pollution..all sorts of shit..

as far as the solution I'm uncertain... I would get him on cannabis edibles and see if it changed anything, since modern medicine doesn't really cure these sorts of things, I would /hope/ this would be a stress condition that could be reversed by staying in a non-stressed state for a week or two(edibles like 2-3 times a day for a week or two...)

other than that I cant really tell you much, except that it isn't the cannabis.

Yeah Impossible to o.d. on weed. Too much reefer = a nap! Thats a FACT! And Cannabis helps calm the stomach ITS THE BEST MEDICINE FOR A STOMACH! Its why they recommend it to chemo and aids patients to relieve pain and induce hunger. Prevents Nausea from pharmas and chemo. If my stomach hurts I blaze the pain subsides or goes away completely. If you eat anything processed I would point to that before cannabis

Its funny how quick doctors are to point to cannabis just cos they've no fucking clue whats actually wrong...
