You cannot die from consuming cannabis
There has never been a documented human fatality from overdosing on cannabis. You cannot die from consuming cannabis. The LD50 (toxicity rating) for humans has never been found.
Scientists have estimated a few ways to die from an overdose:
- Smoke a third of ones body weight
- Consume 1500 pounds of cannabis in 15 minutes
In either of these cases the user would fall asleep, or become incapacitated from the affects of the drug. This indicates that the safety ratio is at least 1000:1 and as high as 40,000:1. In comparison, the safety ratio for alcohol is 10:1, cocaine 15:1 and heroin 6:1
(A safety ration is the amount needed for a psychoactive to the amount needed for a fatal overdose)
