Cannabis- Good or Bad ?

An interesting article (published recently) inJournel of Clinincal Investigation says, high doses of cannabis promote embryonic and adult hippocampus neurogenesis. which means it enables hippocampus to generate new neurons in brain throughout a human’s lifespan. This is really a good news! (link: Cannabinoids promote embryonic and adult hippocampus neurogenesis and produce anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects)

But wait. Another study published by University of Leicester researchers has found “convincing evidence” that cannabis smoke damages DNA in ways that could potentially increase the risk of cancer development in humans (link: Cannabis alters human DNA)
Let us hope someone will filter out the bad thing out of good things. :)
