WW: What’s Worse: Marijuana vs Alcohol

Over the past few years, the use of cannabis has been increasing in popularity…

I have also noticed that, in the health space in particular, many people are partaking less and less in using alcohol due to its detrimental effects.

And while I whole-heartedly support any efforts people want to make to improve their overall health, I want to be cautious of using any substances without research to back it up.

So, on today’s episode I want to dive deep into a very large study on brain health to get a better understanding of what the major causes are for accelerated brain aging and I think you will be surprised by the results.

I hope you’ll join me on today’s #CabralConcept 2735 where I go over what’s worse: marijuana vs alcohol – Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. What Was the Study

The world’s largest brain study looked at over 62,000 people to study their brain scans. The research covered 128 different areas of the brain. This study compared the predicted age of the brain versus the actual chronological age to determine accelerated aging.

2. What Did The Study Find

The study showed what the top five major accelerators of brain age are. 1. Schizophrenia 2. Cannabis 3. Bi-Polar Disorder 4. ADHD. 5. Alcohol.

3. My Thoughts on The Brain Study

I found this research very important as I would have thought alcohol would have been worse for brain aging then cannabis. It is important that we look at research like this, so we have scientific evidence to back up our hypothesis.
