Smoking marijuana can cause the heartbeat to increase from 20 to 50 beats per minute for up to three hours, loss of short term memory and IQ and adversely affects one's body in many ways. THC affects one's judgment and remains in the body for up to 28 days. I suppose if I were dying of cancer and had only a short time to live but wanted relief from pain I might use it...but otherwise no way.
