Marijuana DOES NOT CAUSE CANCER or Brain Damage!


Marijuana is not a harmful drug, it is non-toxic and does not lead to cancer or brain damage. There has never been one conclusive study that has linked marijuana to cancer. Research has found pre-cancerous cells in the lungs of those who have smoked at least one joint a day and an average of three joints a day for ten years. Those individuals also had an elevated risk of bronchial infection but not as high of a risk as cigarette smokers. 
There is no conclusive evidence to suggest that smoke in general causes cancer. Some cite that smoking is a counter-intuitive mod of self-medication. This is not true. These individuals are usually making the comparison of marijuana to tobacco cigarette smoke. 


Just because tobacco cigarette smoke causes cancer doesn’t default all smoke to doing the same. The fact is that there are all sorts of added chemicals to manufactured cigarettes including rat poison. Tobacco, the plant itself is toxic. It must be rotated with other crops because it depletes the soil of its nutrients and leaves the ground infertile.


40-60 mg of nicotine will kill any adult human. However, marijuana is non-toxic, has never killed anyone and is physically impossible to over dose on.
