  1. If it's so bad then why does (the UKs ex Prime Minister) Teresa May's husband legally grow it in the UK, only to export it for a very high mark up. I believe it's sold to America.

    She changed the law so her husband could have a monopoly on growing weed while anyone else goes to jail.

  2. it was fun to smoke when I was a child in the 70s,we would get together,put on the latest Beatles album,there was the ever present chance of getting caught that made it mysterious and exotic, now that the govt is regulating it,it has lost all of that appeal..it has been taken from the people and regulated by the govt…

  3. I have to totally agree what you’re saying and now on the news they’re saying that vaping is killing people , I think they’ll do anything to take something good away from someone who has smoked and turn to vaping to help them life a little bit better , i’ve been vaping now and I feel so much better. Somehow teenagers are getting involved and have THC in it now they’re saying vaping causes death what the hell

  4. Yes, you certainly missed a major finding!!! You need to study and educate yourself on Dr. Daniel Amen' s Brain studies of Marijuana use and abuse on the Brain using "SPECT" scans! You obviously are lacking in thorough investigation and studies!! Marijuana certainly is VERY UNHEALTHY SUBSTANCE…. Negatively affecting a healthy Brain!! Keep smoking you moron!!

  5. As a former "stoner" (all day smoker) and someone who has had lung issues and signs of emphysima, smoking weed is not healthy. Specifically for your lungs.

  6. The main problem with Weed is since the ‘War on Drugs’ imports of natural weed dried up( and smugglers turned to Heroin and Cocaine as they are much easier to smuggle and get much bigger profits). So the only Weed that can be bought now are highly selectively bred plants and grown under artificial conditions, to increase THC, this has the affect of lessening CBD which is an anti psychotic compound. That is naturally in balance with THC, the lack of CBD is what is causing people to get Psychosis from Weed. We also should distinguish between Weed and Hashish, as Hashish is more of a sedative so doesn’t make people paranoid etc anywhere as much as weed can do, as weed is a faster buzz!

  7. However one reviews the research, such as it is, into marijuana, I would hope that the consensus of all caring, thinking people is to treat any bad consequences of marijuana use as a medical issue and not a criminal one. Please remember John Sinclair.

  8. Good review of the common points. A less commonly-known claim about marijuana smoking is that it slows gut motility. Might be worth investigating marijuana use in people with SIBO who quit fiber/vegan.

  9. My experience of weed once was terrible. And have cause me trauma that I am still trying to handle. I do NOT recommend everyone trying it. There can be more cases of negative experiences. My psychologist had met more cases like me.

  10. Smoking ANYTHING causes lung issues, maybe not as much as the black tar from cancer sticks(cigarettes). Still lighting anything on fire and inhaling is bad… but should still be legal, as drinking and cigarettes are a choice, marijuana should be s choice.

  11. One thousand eye rolls for pro-weed and anti-weed people. It has benefits to some illnesses but its not a magical perfect drug im so bored of people trying to make wild exaggerated claims about the benefits or negative effects of weed. Thank you for your informative non biased take on the topic

  12. In the 60's millions of young adults smoked marijuana and back then studies showed it was not physically addicting. One does Not need to "smoke" weed….cigarettes and the associated paper became filled with chemicals…smoking paper is definitely not a healthy activity.

  13. I would be waaaaay more cautious to dismiss the negative mental health effects of marijuana on susceptible individuals.
    People go to the ER every single day from psychological disturbances related to THC ingestion.
    Mic is high

  14. Cannabis itself is safe, beneficial and non-toxic. No recorded deaths. The smoke going into your lungs is not healthy at all. Eat it. Tons of people have beat serious illness with Rick Simpson Cannabis Oil.

  15. How long can you “not go without something” before being considered addicted . For example my roommate said he can’t go without video games for two weeks . Does that make him addicted ? Or what’s that magic number ?

  16. Cannabis is a drug, a stimulant with pro-psychotic effects . Habitual use is common and getting more so. Mostly we are self-medicating and/or escaping when we seek out any drug just to feel better, but in the long run they do the opposite. There are better ways than drugs imo

  17. Started to use it for pain I was having in my shoulder. The pain was so bad I couldn’t sleep. It helped me sleep and after two nights the pain went away. I will have a bit of an indica once in a while for sleep but don’t really care to do it just for fun. Not the least bit addictive. I’m a senior and about 90% of the seniors I know are using it.

  18. What I want to know is the where the line is between moderate and heavy use?😂 very informative video thanks for the unbias science!
    Edit: tried to find this in the studies. Looking at the 2 fold heavy users one it describes ‘heavy users’ as “lifetime use of more than 50 times” ?? Anyone know what that means? If that means smoked over 50 times then theres a lot of variation because the 5.7 fold study underneath designated people who smoked under 20 times as ‘non smokers’

  19. You should do a follow up vid on the origins of the DEA. From what I understand, their origins say a lot. Furthermore, I'm totally down if marijuana was illegal across the board. . . . As soon as they do the same with alcohol. So much hypocrisy in this country, whether we're talking about marijuana or veganism.

  20. The difference between cigs and weed is; cigs have nothing natural in them anymore and weed is only natural. And I believe some people have addictive personalities. Thank you for sharing this information.

  21. Sad that alcohol is accepted the way the it is. The evidence about how harmful it's use goes back centuries, but still people continue to ruin their lives and the lives of others by abusing alcohol.
