Although medicinal marijuana has been known to relieve pain in many
debilitating illnesses, it has been determined to have a negative
effect on patients with pre-existing immune deficits.
Additional studies strongly suggest that marijuana affects brain
function and memory. It was also concluded that those patients will be
less capable to fend off respiratory conditions while at the same time
attempting to cure those and other diseases.
As advertised, even the popular blue pill has its own list of side
effects.
