*Takes toke*... "Well, I don't think I'm losing my cognitive faculties": Current Alzheimer Research: Association Between Cannabis Use and Subjective Cognitive Decline: Findings from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)

Results: Compared to non-users, non-medical cannabis use was significantly associated with 96% decreased odds of SCD [Subjective Cognitive Decline] (aOR=0.04, 95% CI=0.01-0.44, p<.01). Medical (aOR=0.46, 95% CI=0.06-3.61, p=.46) and dual medical and non-medical use (aOR=0.30, 95% CI=0.03-2.92, p=.30) were also associated with decreased odds of SCD, although not significant.
