Marijuana and diabetes

Compared to nonusers, cannabis users had about twice the risk of experiencing a serious complication known as diabetic ketoacidosis, which develops when blood sugar is elevated for too long and the body produces high levels of acids known as ketones. Left untreated, ketoacidosis can lead to severe dehydration, swelling in the brain, coma and death.

Re: Marijuana and diabetes

The study wasn't a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how cannabis might directly cause ketoacidosis. But it's possible that vomiting caused by long-term cannabis use might lead to dehydration that can increase ketones and lead to ketoacidosis in people with type 1 diabetes, said senior study author Dr. Viral Shah of the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora.


That "study" is kinda stretching to make its point.


400 something participants with POORLY CONTROLLED diabetes.



The symptoms are easily explained by the poor control.
