What I read in todays paper was that the THC in marijuana combats alzheimers by keeping the neurotransmitters active, also it may help break down the protein in the brain which causes alzheimers by clogging it ....(written in laymans terms i guess). That is what i read. It just stated that THC in marijuana works better then the medicines that is given to prevent it now. YAY HIPPIES.
