DAILY DOPE SMOKING SHRINKS BRAIN
June 3, 2008 - 1:43PM
A new Australian study has confirmed heavy dope smoking causes permanent brain damage.
Brain scans on 15 men who smoked at least five joints a day for more than a decade show a 12 per cent shrinkage in the parts of the brain that control emotion and memory.
There was also a seven per cent reduction in the part of the brain involved with fear and aggression.
Researchers from the University of Melbourne say their findings should settle the historic controversy over the long-term effects of cannabis use.
