Title: Marijuana Smokers Are Thinner And Healthier Than Non-Users
Post by: Archer77 on July 13, 2013, 03:09:05 PM
"A recent study published in the Journal of American Medicine has some conclusions that might make marijuana advocates pretty excited. According to the study, the potent plant usually known for causing the munchies might actually help people be thinner. Researchers looked at the effect of the drug on metabolic processes and discovered a correlation between smaller waist circumference and marijuana use."

I guess it doesn't work for everyone.  Maybe he should have tried a little meth to balance out the weed.

Yeah I get crazy skinny when I smoke weed, I always forget to eat a second supper, and I can never get out of bed early enough to eat breakfast. Not to mention the far more obvious answer. How much money does your average loser pothead have left over for food after buying weed? This is obviously a study formed by some rich liberal douche.

Methinks all the weed smoking sons of Ham and their superior afro-neegul genetics are largely responsible for the correlation at hand.

Yeah part of the reason I don't eat when high is the fallout from the munchies.
