Studying the Obvious #3 - Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em!
This is nowhere near “obvious,” but it is interesting nonetheless: It appears that toking a few will not only help you forget stuff by killing brain cells, but it can also help you remember stuff… by killing brain cells.
If you’re not stoned but still scratching your head in confusion, check this out. It seems that the active ingredient in marijuana, THC, which can kill brain cells when you smoke too much, also blocks the proteins that clump together in the brain of people with Alzheimer’s.
Which begs the question; if you smoke a lot and start forgetting stuff, how can you tell what the cause is?
