Fox News medical correspondent Dr. David Samadi recently appeared on Fox & Friends with Clayton Morris to speak about a new study that showed that marijuana is one of the least lethal drugs available.
Samadi was brought on to the show to discredit the study and speak about the horrors of marijuana, but he wasn’t very convincing, and ally made some outrageous claims that made him look completely ridiculous.
“I think it’s a very dangerous study, people need to be very careful about not getting the wrong message from this study. They’re using a lethal dose as a comparison. For example, they’re putting pot against or weed against cocaine or alcohol. We know you need less amount of alcohol to die. So, they’re using death to see what’s dangerous and what’s not,” Samadi said.
“They’re extrapolating a lot of these animal studies and surveys that doesn’t make a lot of sense and coming with this whole thing that pot is safer. Absolutely not. It’s a huge fraud,” he added.
His point is entirely irrelevant considering that the purpose of the study was to determine how lethal certain drugs were. Also, there are many other studies pointing to the safety of marijuana and its ability to help with a wide variety of ailments. Samadi instead says that marijuana has unknown long-term side effects but fails to even discuss them or provide an evidence.
Not only did he suggest that marijuana was responsible for heart attacks and overdoses, but he also said that marijuana was responsible for crack babies.
“It actually causes heart attacks. It increases your heart rate. And on and on. We’re seeing in Colorado that we had 13 kids that came to the emergency [room] and ended up in the ICU as a result of overdose from marijuana. Now we have crack babies coming in because pregnant women are smoking this whole marijuana business.”
After railing against medical marijuana and calling it a fraud, Samadi welcomed anyone who disagreed with him to post on his facebook page and prove him wrong.
“I challenge any doctors, come to my Facebook, convince me how this is healthy for you. I’m 100 percent against this,” he said.

I can link you to a study that shows that marijuana effects your endocrine system in your brain and gonads. How it does that is not for me to say, but anytime you mess with someone's sexual function, you are opening up a can of worms. There are many downsides to marijuana. As an ex-marijuana user, I can attest to this fact. There are some pros, but you have to take the good with the bad as opposed to only taking the good and ignoring the bad.
I have seen the same study I believe that it is believed that the "Super Weed" that everyone smokes today lowers men testosterone. I am not a scientist but it is worth looking into. My thoughts are marijuana in its natural state meaning marijuana that is found growing in the wild male and female plants is the healthiest form of marijuana. It is when "man" puts his dirty little fingers on it and grow it in an un-natural way ie in a closet or lab separating it from the male plants and manipulating its THC content is when degradation begins.
It's hard to tell. I hate when people use the argument that just cause something comes from nature, it can't hurt me. I know you're not saying that, but I hear it so often that it's annoying. I think in the case that you're talking about, man's manipulation of the plant comes in the form of taking a flame that HE created to combust the plant and inhale it into his lungs.
You are actually correct. Ot is not natural for humans to intentionally inhale smoke. Eating it would be more natural.
good post.
important news.. thanks for sharing
amazing news, great video and photo
The man in the video is a liar. He's a shill, for real. There is no way he truley believes what he's saying. This guy is bought & piad for. It must feel bad living in someone elses pocket.
It would be interesting if you followed up on his Facebook page to see if any doctors come and prove him wrong.
