Marijuana For Your Brain, Alcohol For Your Heart? + Tuesday’s Rant
Well, 1st day back at school are usually pretty dodgy and boring as everyone prefer holidays I would say, however today seems to be pretty pleasent and I was quite happy maybe because of getting back mock (exams) results and yeh.. I was proud at myself.. did resonably well for my standards thou I wont come up with any figures but all I can say is .. big improvemnt for me and now I believe in “Hard Work Pays Off” haha..
Sports againts the year 11 today was rather.. scarey haha.. well not exactly scarey but just that half of our team cant exactly play beach volleyball so we got our arse KICKED.. lost all 4 games.. oh well i guess it’s not about winning but its about the team work and the determination and the fun
hehe.. (ok that was just to make me feel better about losing all 4 games
- moving right along)
I think thats enough of my daily rant.. I would like to share something interesting james found today
(thanks james)
Marijuana For Your Brain, Alcohol For Your Heart?
Two papers coincidentally announced on the same day raise interesting questions about some of society’s favorite drugs. The first paper suggests that alcohol acts as a blood thinner, thus showing the mechanism behind the well-established ability of moderate alcohol consumption to lower rates of heart disease. The other paper suggests that cannabinoids can actually cause the growth of new brain cells and reduce anxiety and depression.
But yeh, Marijuana for your brain.. Alcohol for your heart.. well I have to agree with the moderate consumption of alcohol does help the circulation of blood in our body but I dont think I can accept the fact that marijiana can cause growth of a new brain cells which would reduce anxiety and depression.. of course anything consumed under moderation will hv it’s benifit but I will leave those research to the experts and wait for any further news or result they come up with ![]()
Till then.. DONT consume marijuana under any circumstances
(just my $0.02)
