What are some adverse health effects that may occur from long term exposure to an environment with increased g-forces?

 

Most of us know that there are deleterious effects to human physiology in microgravity environments, but what about the opposite?

 

 

Hypothetical:

 

Sam is spending his vacation on Jupiter, where he weighs roughly 2.6 times as much as he does on Earth. What effects to his body can be expected?

 

 

I know this is a very broad question, so please just throw things out there. Everything from digestive issues to compression of CSF.

 

Thanks.
