NO JOKE: NEW LANDMARK STUDY — Cannabis smoking ‘permanently lowers IQ’

 

Teenagers who regularly smoke cannabis are putting themselves at risk of permanently damaging their intelligence, according to a landmark study.

 

Researchers found persistent users of the drug, who started smoking it at school, had lower IQ scores as adults.

 

They were also significantly more likely to have attention and memory problems in later life, than their peers who abstained.

 

Quitting or reducing cannabis use did not appear to fully restore intellectual functioning among adolescent-onset former persistent cannabis users

 

Fewer now think cannabis is damaging than tobacco — but cannabis has proved harmful for the young

Does anyone need further proof than this contrivance here?
