Good news for the medical marijuana movement: pot proliferates brain cells and boosts mood.
Most drugs of abuse decrease the generation of new neurons in the brain, but the effects of marijuana on this process, called neurogenesis, had not been clear. In a paper appearing online on October 13 in advance of print publication of the November issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Xia Zhang and colleagues from University of Saskatchewan show that a potent and synthetic cannabinoid promotes neurogenesis. This drug also exerts anti-anxiety and antidepressant-like effects.
The researchers suggest that there is a positive correlation between increased adult neurogenesis and modified behavior following chronic cannabinoid treatment. Moreover, cannabinoids are perhaps the only illicit drug that can enhance adult neurogenesis.WEED IS HARMLESS! What crap do you think the gov't is going to tell people to stop smoking it now? It can be used for good say scientists..

Reply:There has been a lot of fatal car accidents where the only drug found in the fault driver is marijuana, now you should tell that to the victim's families and see if they change their mind about weed after they lost a mother a father, a son or daughter , a sister or a brother, I'm sure they would like to hear from you.
For me drugs are just an excuse for losers who don't have the balls to face reality, but that is just me, I have never used drugs and I never will.
Reply:Yeah Right! You keep using it? Is that not a symptom of addiction. I kept smoking cigarettes too and THAT was an addiction. Coffee addicts keep drinking the beverage; foodies eat until obesity sets in.
You do not have to seek approval from us or try to convince us that you should use marijuana. Go ahead and do it - it's your body, your addiction of choice. I don't care either way
Reply:I enjoyed Smoking Weed for 25 years but the worst thing that I ever Did was eat too many cookies and TAKE A NAP.
Whats the Harm?
No Body Got Hurt!
The Laws are Stupid,
The Cops are involved and so is the government- There is Way Too Much $ involved to Legalize it!
Reply:Well I've been around people who smoke pot my whole life, my dad has smoked since way before I was born and I can tell you nothing good comes from it, **** what studies say you have to actually experience it before believing ****.
Reply:I don't know if everything in this "article" is true, but I think it's a widely excepted opinion that Marijuana is not as dangerous as many other legalized drugs.
The government will continue doing what it does best to keep people from smoking it "legally"... It will Lie.
Reply:Yeah... but its still addictive. As much as I see successful people using it responsibly, the vast majority of frequent pot smokers usually go down the tubes.
