The history of marijuana prohibition is filled with warnings. What kind of warnings are there about marijuana today? Well, it can still get you arrested in many places… but aside from that, true or false, what other popular warnings are circulating today?
One fairly simple and rather obvious way to find this out is to do a web search for “marijuana warning,” and look at a selected sample of the results.
The most prominent listing is for WebMD, which first lets us know that marijuana has other names, like “weed,” but also some interesting ones such as Esra, Gaga, Huo Ma Ren and Sawi. People use this drug recreationally, and it creates a “sense of well-being” and “alters the senses.”
According to the website, marijuana also has many medical properties and should not be confused with hemp. There are side-effects, such as blood pressure problems, impaired mental functioning, dizziness and a negative impact on the immune system. Marijuana is, however, possibly effective for glaucoma, HIV/AIDS-related weight loss, multiple sclerosis and pain. Unfortunately, there is insufficient evidence regarding a few serious ailments, as well as regarding its usefulness for treating dandruff and hemorrhoids.
The Surgeon General of the Public Health Service also has a warning about marijuana, which is dated April 13, 1982 and is posted on the Center for Disease Control’s website. This warning is based on a comprehensive scientific review by the National Academy of Sciences and the World Health Organization and highlights the claim that marijuana “interferes with many aspects of mental functioning” and also has an impact on perception, judgment and motor skills.
