Cannabis ages the brain

Discussion in 'Marijuana News' started by SirInfi, Apr 1, 2019.

  1. My Gf just showed me some articles explaining that cannabis use constricts blood vessels in the brain, which they call aging.

    What do you all think about that?

  3. Cannabis doesn't constrict blood vessels. That's Tobacco.

    Cannabis dilates blood vessels.

  6. If I were a cat I'd give her a prolonged and disinterested look upon having heard that.

  11. Were talking about blood vessels not cells...
     
  12. Blood vessels in the brain shrink with age.

    Cannabis use seems to speed up the process.

    Your body may look young but your thinking will be slowed down.

    Porn use may help combat this issue.

  14. Nah, cannabis is a vasodilator. Ask her where she read the articles and perhaps put up the links.

  15. Well clearly dats bullshit! Ya brain ain't made to use forever either way IMO
     
  16. phytocannabinoids act on blood vessels through LOX and COX ( lipoxygenase / cylooxygenase ) . they do so in the Aracidonate signalling system ... arachidonate signalling system at DuckDuckGo
    are there no cells in blood Vessels ??
    edit- too we need links as @WeedHaps mentions... no need to make issue though in your relationship over this , if she is not sharing that is fine

  17. Don't know anything about this. Can't say whether I believe it or there's proof or not but I can say nobody is getting out of life alive and weed is far from anyone's biggest concern (and if it is you're doing pretty incredible anyway, so fuck it!)

  18. If thats true then why isn't she stating sources. Get one last moment of Netflix with her then ditch her immediately.
     
  19. You know what really ages the brain? Sleep deficits and stress. For ten years, I was working twelve-hour days at a high-stress job, and then staying up, working on my real love, building guitars. Got 4-5 hours of sleep, and my brain turned to mush. Wasn't consuming weed during this time. My brain never really recovered from that, I believe.
