Isn't smoking marijuana less dangerous than smoking cigarettes?

No. It's even worse. One joint affects the lungs as much as four cigarettes.

Can people become addicted to marijuana?

Yes. Research confirms you can become hooked on marijuana.

Can marijuana help cure cancer?

No. Some people with cancer, HIV/AIDS, and other diseases claim to experience relief from pain and other symptoms that they attribute to marijuana use. However, scientific research has not yet confirmed these benefits and more research on this topic is being done. What is known is that smoking marijuana can cause lung damage.

Is it true that bhang stays in your body for less than 24 hrs.?

False. Bhang, unlike alcohol, which is water soluble is fat soluble. THC, the active chemical in bhang can be detected in urine 14 days after smoking a joint. Even after a person has stopped smoking the effects will still linger.
