THE BENNEFITS OF MARIJUANA FOR HUMANS

So far marijuana has a pretty bad reputation, especially in health problems. The use of
marijuana in an inappropriate and careless manner can indeed cause many health
problems. Suppose addiction, anxiety, or brain damage related to memory. A study even
found that the risk of heart attack increased within an hour after someone smoked
marijuana.

Even so, it feels unfair to see marijuana based only on the bad effects it causes. Marijuana
also has a good side and can be used in terms of health if used properly. Here are some of
the surprising benefits that cannabis is given for health, as reported by Care2 (08/08).
1. Alzheimer's

Based on research by the Scripps Research Institute, marijuana is known to slow

Alzheimer's disease that attacks the brain. This result has also been published in the
journal Molecular Pharmaceutics.

2. Anxiety

Researchers from Harvard Medical School found that marijuana has an effect that can
help calm one's anxiety. Of course, this only applies to the use of marijuana in the right
dose. The use of marijuana in high doses can actually have the opposite effect of
increasing anxiety and paranoid thoughts.

3. Arthritis

Cannabis is known to relieve pain and aches, as well as inflammation associated with
arthritis.

4. Cancer

The study, published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, found that the
substance cannabidiol found in cannabis could "kill" a gene called "Id-1" that cancer cells
use to spread throughout the body.

5. Epilepsy

In a study at Virginia Commonwealth University, researchers found that marijuana could

be used to stop epileptic attacks. Even so, this research has only been carried out on
animals and has not been tested on humans.
