Anything in excess is bad for you. Even water.

Alcohol (and tobacco) is bad for you even after one sip, though.

Not sure you can have a vegetables or fruits overdose or even be addicted to them, but you cannot have too much of those.

And to drown yourself by drinking water, you would need to drink around 7 liters in a day. You will start to feel really bad a few liters before that.

Depending on the fruit, sugar content can also lead to diabetes, and the sugars and acids are also generally bad for dental health.

Generally speaking we accept those for the other benefits of vitamins / fibre intake, et cetera. This study is quite weak, and if the upside in some cases is improved mental health, and the risks of diabetes can be mitigated with exercise, then perhaps we need to view cannabis the same way.

Sure but the fibers and high sucrose would make you satisfied before you have any risk of becoming obese.

Small quantities of alcohol of cannabis are worse than water and oxygen though.
