>>> AMAZING: Alchohol binge drinking KILLS brain cells, but smoking WEED helps prevents it!
You like to get drunk but don't want to fry your braincells, you need to smoke weed when you drink!

Health News

Penn State University
[link to www.collegian.psu.edu]

FRIDAY, Aug. 21 (HealthDay News) -- Marijuana may buffer the brain against the damages of binge drinking, a new study suggests.

[...]

As expected, the binge drinkers showed signs of white matter damage in all eight brain regions examined by the researchers. But the binge drinkers/marijuana users had less damage in seven out of the eight brain regions than the binge drinkers did. And compared to the control group, the binge drinkers/marijuana users had more white matter damage in only three regions.

The researchers wrote that brain white matter tracts were "more coherent in adolescents who binge drink and use marijuana than in adolescents who report only binge drinking." They said it's "possible that marijuana may have some neuroprotective properties in mitigating alcohol-related oxidative stress or excitotoxic cell death."


Now instead of damaging 8 areas of the brain, only 3 (or less) will be effected by the damaging effects of alchohol thanks to the amazing medicinal properties of Marijuana.

Weed can prevent 7 out of 8 regions from having excitotoxic cell death!

So if you drink and don't smoke weed, time to start doing both!

Life will be much better and your brain will thank you in the long run.

PIN THIS SHIT, it will save GLPer's brain cells!

Oh... there is nothing better then the Weed and Beer combo... trust me on that.

It's my medicine of choice after a long stressful work week. Friday night beer and bong FTW!

I've been saving my braincells without even realizing it until this amazing study proved once again, weed is a medicine and not a harmful drug.

Legalize immediately!

I'm more of a beer drinker, but I will take your word on this. I would certainly drink wine and smoke weed together. Actually, anytime I drink I'll make sure to spark a bowl.

I just listed the other benifits, and it seems it protects the brain far more then it damages it. My grandma died of Alzheimers and she really never smoked any weed.

I use it to treat depression and it has worked great in that regard. Ever since I broke up with my wife, weed has been a life saver literally. Kept me from going into a total meltdown.

A couple of years ago, i read a report that pointed up the fact that people who smoke weed AND tobacco do not have a higher incidence of COPD than the population who only smokes tobacco.

I'll try to find a link...

 Quoting: 12000Eyes


Weed can be smoked through a vaporizer eliminating all the negative effects of burning material which produce ~ 110 toxins.

You get 95% pure THC and a few other cannabinoids from the plant. Burning weed releases all the other nasty stuff including toxins from paper and burning butane.

It's the recommended way to smoke the herb.

Yup, alcohol and weed have a certain kind of synergy. Although I consider myself in expert in that particular field of study further investigation is always needed.

No, it's not the drugs it's the person. The same holds true for guns, it's not the gun but the person pulling the trigger that kill.

Millions of people drink and smoke weed and don't commit acts of murder.

Now murdering psychopaths however do... drugs or no drugs.
