Ok, this one may be a bit of a generalisation and probably shouldn’t be taken as gospel. Nevertheless, a study carried out between the University of Northern Colorado, Colorado State University, and the University of Alabama found that when a patient’s history includes cannabis use, after being hospitalised they are statistically less likely to die than a patient with no history of cannabis use. There are a thousand and one supposed reasons why this may be the case, but the only thing that really matters is that it’s a fact – plain, simple and proven.
