Marijuana may stave off Alzheimer's

It appears as THC, the active ingredient in maijuana has shown to potentially prevent the progression of Alzheimers disease by preventing the neurotransmitter acetylcholine from detiriorating.

Research also shows that marijuana may help prevent dimentia.

I came across this article on CNN. Makes me happy I give my Doctor $135/year to reup my recommendation to smoke marijuana. I may suffer a little short term memory loss, but this study indicates in my memory may last longer as I age in the long run.

Please see the full article here>

So does it stave off Alzheimer's or just make you not remember you have it? ;~D

I guess we'll know for sure, if all them aging hippies fare better than their less cool counterparts.

In the matter at hand it was very small doses that were found to be effective, not nearly enough to turn you into Jeff Spicoli or even give you a buzzzzz.

Marijuana is used to relieve glaucoma and can help reduce side effects from cancer and AIDS treatment.

It is a wonder drug isn't it? Some people over here swear by it.

The Government is all bent out of shape about marijuana. They’re convinced the anti-government movement in the 60’s was a result of pot smoking, not the Vietnam War.

The hemp plant could also replace trees as the source for all paper goods.

To bad it’s evil :~)
