It would still cause some sort of problem if you ate it,it is a poisonous weed. - SkyRider666
You have no idea what you\'re talking about. There are no latent toxic chemicals naturally found in Marijuana other than what MAY be put there by some dumb-a$$ green-thumb wanna be who decided it\'d just be easier to jack them up with an overdose of Miracle-Gro to increase yeild rather than taking the RIGHT procedures like regulating light cycle, maintaining the right humidity and temperature, splitting the stalks, spritzing with carbonated water.. ect... ect.
Nicotine is a poison.. Tetra-hydro-canibinal-9 is not. In fact, it has one of the lowest critical limits (?) is the pharmacopia. It\'s almost impossible to OD on THC.. whereas less than a gram of pure nicotine will kill you. The worst effect it would have on you when injested is a possible irritation of the bowels.. and that\'s only really if you\'re dumb enough to pick buds offa bush and eat them raw. Really, it\'s no worse on your bowels than corn.

i have friends that are now completely stupid from a little procedure called "wake and bake" - mm
That\'s funny, I have friends who do nothing but litterally smoke bud 24/7 and haven\'t lost much of their brain capacity at all. It dosen\'t "KILL" braincells.. that\'s a scare tactic with no -credible- scientific proof to back it up. It DOES inhibit brain activity however.. you are right on that point. However that\'s only while THC is still within the body. As any smoker who was subjected to urinology tests knows, THC attaches to your fat cells and takes roughly 2 weeks to 3 months to completely wash out of your system. Even tho you\'re not high, it does inhibit brain functions.. expecially since your brain has quite a high percentage of fat for the THC to cling to.
In normal - healthy- adults, the detrimental effects have been found to be only temporary. However it CAN interfer with developing bodies durring puberty. Another effect it can have, which isn\'t really widely known because it hasn\'t been turoughly tested yet AFAIK, is that when people exposed to marijuana who are still in their formative years can cause long term brain function abnormalities. See, the brain isn\'t pre-programed to learn. Sure, you soak up knowlage at an early age.. but as you start acumulating more knowlage you have to form good study habits. You have to learn how to learn so to speak. This point is made in case of language. We aren\'t born with a tendacy to verbal language. As with the case of many well documented "Wild Children", if language isn\'t tought in some form by a certain age.. the child then becomes unable to learn language... or at least finds it extreemly difficult. Inhibiting brain functionality at such a young age with THC can disrupt the learning process and cause problems down the road.
Also, I should point out, that while it\'s rare that a pot-head buddy of mine ends up as "burnt out" as your Ex, those few that are were usually involved in other drugs. Mostly inhalants, such as Glade, Nitros, Rubber Cement, and Gasoline. That shyt DOES cause braindamage.
Anyhow, here\'s a quick lil bit of MJ trivia for ya\'ll. Did you know that Marijuana\'s withdraw sympoms are everybit as severe as opiums? It\'s true. Marijuana IS addictive.. physically. However, since the THC stays in your body for such a long period of time, it takes most of the edge off of the withdraw process. Most people don\'t even notice it, and it gives the appearance (and IS for all intents and purposes) that the Psycological addiction is far more severe. (even tho psycological addictions are fairly easy to break)
