Is MARIJUANA Really Harmful To The Body?


The use of marijuana is not only harmful to the pot smoker himself. He can also become a risk to society. Research clearly shows that marijuana has the potential to cause problems in daily life.
A study of 129 college students found that, among those who smoked the drug at least twenty-seven of the thirty days before being surveyed, critical skills related to attention, memory and learning were seriously diminished. A study of postal workers found that employees who tested positive for marijuana had 55% more accidents, 85% more injuries and a 75% increase in being absent from work.
In Australia only, a study found that cannabis intoxication was responsible for 4.3% of driver fatalities.
It is almost impossible to grow up in Nigeria or any country and not be exposed to drugs. Peer pressure to do drugs is high and honest information about the dangers of drugs is not always available.



Many people will tell you marijuana is not dangerous. Consider who is telling you that ; are these the same people who are trying to sell you some pot?

Marijuana can harm a person’s memory—and this impact can last for days or weeks after the immediate effects of the drug wear off. In one study, a group of heavy marijuana users were asked to recall words from a list.

Their ability to correctly remember the words did not return to normal until as long as four weeks after they stopped smoking. Students who use marijuana have lower grades and are less likely to get into college than nonsmokers.

They simply do not have the same abilities to remember and organize information compared to those who do not use these substances.

In another study – Marijuana might not be shrinking your brain after all, study says Decreased brain volume in marijuana users may have more to do with genetic predisposition than casual use. Is that why stoners usually explain things in a deeper dimension?
