alzheimers prevent
mattoon_pac asked:


a doctor Donald Taskin just finished a 30 year study that proves marijuana does not lead to cancer in the lungs, head, or neck.
Also people with alzheimer have an enzyme in the brain called acetylcholine or AChE. which does two things: 1. accelerates formation of abnormal protein clumps in the brain. 2. breaks down the brain chemical linked to memory.
the main compound of marijuana called thc inhibits this enzyme. THC could completely prevent this, donepezil and tacrine, the two most prescribed medication for alzheimers only reduce clumping by 7 to 22 percent.

      i don’t smoke pot, cigarette or drink. I have personally wondered the same thing. I think alcohol has way worse effects on people than marijuana. I’m sure it has to do with lobbyists and those alcohol and tabacoo people have their fangs sunk deep into the government.

      Because the government can’t tax it

      Ohh yeh, The addicts will try anything to get their little mary jane plant made legal.
      I could site examples of where Marijuana was at one time sold over the counter of Chemists in cigarette from for the treatment of Asthma. Problem was that these Asthmatics smoked them when they were driving and had accidents. Smoked at work and had accidents with machinery. The DHA eventually withdrew them and banned their sale as they did more harm than good.

      This experiment you speak of is still largely unproven. If it is eventually trialled it will not be in the form of cigarettes, it will more likely be in the form of a chemical extract that will be marketed under perscription as a capsule or pill and will be expensive.
      So don’t hold your breath thinking that this research will eventually have MaryJane legalised or freely available to those wanting to use it. It will initially be on the restricted list and perscription only!

      Answer two is correct. It’s because the government has not figured out a way to tax it, yet.

      I think whoever stated that people were hurting others or getting into accidents because they smoked a cheeba are ignorant. I have NEVER once heard of anything like that…the thing with pot is that NOTHING happens.

      Alcohol and tobacco are grandfathered in. Marijuana is relatively new (to us.)
