Study Finds No Significant Association Between Cannabis Use and Developing Psychosis
For years, scientists have been exploring the potential link between cannabis use and psychosis. However, a recent study has found no significant association between the two.
The study, which was published in the journal Lancet Psychiatry, analyzed data from 10 countries and over 23,000 individuals. The researchers found that while cannabis use was associated with an increased risk of developing psychosis, this association disappeared when other factors, such as alcohol and drug use, were taken into account.
While this study does not definitively prove that cannabis use does not cause psychosis, it does suggest that the link between the two is not as strong as previously thought. As always, it's important to approach cannabis use with caution and to be aware of any potential risks.
