One cannabis joint causes as much damage to the lungs as five chain-smoked cigarettes, research has found.
Medical examinations of WEED users and cigarette enthusiasts found that WEED increased lung problems, including obstructed airways and hyperinflation.
Medical Research Institute of New Zealand studied a group of 339 volunteers aged 18 to 70. They were divided into four groups according to whether they smoked only WEED, only tobacco, both, or were non-smokers. Every volunteer was subjected to lung function tests and x-ray scans of their chests to see the amount of damage to their lungs and airways.
They claimed that the most important fining was that smoking a joint was about the same as rapidly smoking 3-5 cigarettes.
Using marijuana seems to increase the chance of becoming psychotic, as well. A new study from England suggests that even infrequent use could raise the small but real risk of serious mental illness by 40 percent!!!!!!!!!!!!
"The available evidence now suggests that cannabis is not as harmless as many people think," said Dr. Stanley Zammit. Dr Stanley is one of the authors of the study, as well as s lecturer in the department of psychological medicine at Cardiff University. Weed also increased the frequency of hallucinations, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, neuroses and suicidal tendencies.
The English scientists found a more disturbing fact about "heavy users" of pot, who use it daily or weekly. Their risk for psychosis jumped to a range of 50 percent to 200 percent.
Why is the government, and lobbyists around the world, trying to outlaw smoking tobacco and legalize WEED???
My personal view, which I admit is a little strange, is that governments like a "high" population. They like their citizens to be docile, dumb, listen to orders and be unconcerned about important issues.
