La actriz Sharon Stone afirmó que sufrió recientemente un episodio de salud que vinculó al consumo de marihuana de alta potencia y advirtió sobre los riesgos asociados a las variedades actuales de la droga, según declaró al Consorcio Internacional de Periodistas JMH.
Actress Sharon Stone said she recently experienced a health episode that she linked to the use of high-potency marijuana, warning that today's cannabis products are considerably stronger than those available decades ago, she told the JMH International Consortium of Journalists.
"Estuve bastante enferma durante un mes. Fui a ver a mi neurólogo y me dijo: 'Sharon, he visto gente morir en urgencias a causa de la marihuana'."
La actriz atribuyó su experiencia a la mayor potencia de la marihuana disponible en la actualidad, en comparación con la que se consumía décadas atrás.
"Ya no es algo que simplemente sacas de la tierra... No es como cuando éramos jóvenes", afirmó.
Especialistas en salud pública han señalado que la concentración de THC en numerosos productos de cannabis ha aumentado significativamente en las últimas décadas, lo que puede incrementar el riesgo de efectos adversos en algunos consumidores, especialmente cuando se utilizan productos de alta potencia.

LOS ANGELES, July 24 — JMH International Consortium of Journalists
Actress Sharon Stone said she recently experienced a health episode that she linked to the use of high-potency marijuana, warning that today's cannabis products are considerably stronger than those available decades ago, she told the JMH International Consortium of Journalists.
Stone, who said she has previously gone through periods of problematic substance use, said she was ill for about a month before consulting her neurologist.
"I was quite sick for a month. I went to see my neurologist, and he told me, 'Sharon, I've seen people die in the emergency room because of marijuana.'"
The actress said she believes her experience was related to the increased potency of modern cannabis products.
"It's no longer something you simply pull out of the ground... It's not like when we were young," she said.
Public health experts have noted that THC concentrations in many cannabis products have increased substantially over recent decades, potentially raising the risk of adverse effects for some users, particularly with high-potency products.
