Marijuana doesn't lower your IQ

2014-10-23 06:10:36.884217+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

Washington Post: No, marijuana use doesn’t lower your IQ. About a study from the Claire Mokrysz of the College of London.

The Seattle Post Intelligencer has a slightly different take on the press release, pointing out that very heavy use among teenagers may have as much as a 3% impact. But this is dwarfed by other factors, like alcohol use.

Ya know, if you are a heavy user of marijuana that endeavor takes up a large part of the day. That time is taken away from other endeavors like learning stuff.
