Marijuana may cause brain inflammation that sets off a genetic time-bomb for schizophrenia in predisposed teenagers - but an anti-inflammatory drug might block the harmful effects a new study suggests.
As marijuana legalization sweeps the US and becomes increasingly popular among (and accessible to) teenagers, health officials are scrambling to understand the risks it comes with.

But scientists at Johns Hopkins University believe that they have uncovered how marijuana can be the trigger for schizophrenia in teens that are already genetically predisposed to the disorder.

This is fake news, pushed by BIG Pharma to get you to buy more pills... Notice how it says, it MIGHT CAUSE which means they don't know, and that you WILL NEED these pills to block those harmful effects...
I am sorry for you retarded stupid people, but outside of the way you smoke or ingest it, it has no harmful effects, and in fact based on research, and of course you won't see it here or in the media, that there are vast benefit marijuana will fix or solve or help with... Marijuana is a natural drug period!!!! You do nothing to it, unlike cocaine or heroin where you add or mix crap together...
