Marijuana, smart drug?
Although marijuana is known as a "healthy drug" it has some side effects that in the long term would not be so healthy, such as short-term memory loss for example.
but it also has its positive side, it is frequently used in medicine for cases such as bone cancer, it is also used in cases of depression since it produces serotonin and dopamine thus eliminating (temporarily) sadness, worries or even anger.
Marijuana has endless uses, but where does this make us smarter?
I think it all depends on the person who uses this drug because although it has an effect on us, there are also many factors that are out of our hands, such as mental illness or the use of other drugs, so the answer will never be concrete, but it can be done. To say that just as on some occasions it distracts us from the world and we lose a few hours relaxed under the effects, there are also those who take advantage of its effects to do great things.
Marijuana can sometimes improve performance, especially if you already have a creative nature. Writers and musicians often use marijuana to get the artistic juices flowing.
Cannabis is famous for making people ask questions, which can be grand like what is the meaning of life, or spot on like questioning the status quo.
Asking questions is the only way to get answers, and it is the first step to gaining knowledge. Why was a substance that stimulates the mind in this way banned? This may be the real reason governments banned marijuana.
In conclusion: consuming will not make you more or less intelligent, everything will always depend on the person. At least until writing this article.
