Now that Marijuana research is beginning to be wrested from the DEA/NIH cabal, we are beginning to see the fruits of this research. Did you catch these recent study highlights?
I have nothing to gain from hyperbole, so those are links to the actual studies (some are behind a paywall, but all abstracts are available.)
The NIDA/DEA has had an effective lock on cannabis research for generations. As that lock is slowly dismantled, we will find that this herb has negative and positive health/mental/physical impacts. But we also find that cannabis is unique as a psychoactive in the dearth of its negative impacts on health and well being.
The short answer is yes if you live in the US where factory farming leads to poisoned food.
Take an otherwise healthy diet and add a moderate amount of processed sugar–something like a soda, a couple of cookies and a fruit juice–and there are measurable health impacts, even if you manage to keep the weight off.
