No credible study has ever shown a link between cannabis and shortened life span.

lol there's a *few* more generations in 420 years

Anyways, I've never read any study that links that. Of course, smoking anything is not good for your health, but it's far better than cigarette smoke.

Studies have shown that injecting cannabinoids into mice slowed the growth of three kinds of cancers and increased their life expectancy up to 36%.

I have also read that those who smoke marijuana and tobacco tend to live longer than those who smoke just tobacco. It would make sense as marijuana smoke acts as an expectorant and cannabinoids are powerful anti-oxidants, but at the moment I cannot provide you with any case studies.

Hey, Null, THC was shown to "cure", not only slow the growth, of three different kinds of cancer.

Remember, Melatonin is the key to the extension of life. People who don't know that Melatonin prevents cancer and heart disease, extends cell-longetivity, and creates freer flow of blood has a lot of research to do, especially, if they think Melatonin has something to do with the color of your skin.

Remember, no one in the world knew that Melatonin existed until 1986, and those people were scientists stashed away in Italy.

edit: This is how "Bras" can decrease Melatonin levels.

I think weed does make older people look younger because my friends mom is 70yrs old and looks like shes in her 40's i think its because smoking weed relaxes you and keeps you from getting stressed thus decreasing wrinkles and other types of ageing.

Maybe I'll still be having kids at 300. But on the other hand, it might be hard to find a woman who would fuck a 300-year-old.

it is safe to say that most people who burn things and then inhale them will have shorter "LIFE" than people who don't inhale burning matter...

I realize, that you did no mention "smoking" but rather just consumption of MJ..

but I thought I'd mention it anyway that being around burning objects will very often shorten peoples time on PLANET earth..

i love you
