Telling you what you want to hear

The internet will pretty much tell you want you want to hear. If you type "dangers of marijuana" into google, you'll get a ton of pages outlining how bad marijuana is. If you type "benefits of marijuana" you'll get another ton of pages telling you how good it is. Niether side has any worthwhile information, they're full of so called studies done with only 10 people. Very few people have studied the plant without alterior motives.

Another problem is that there are so many types and growing methods of marijuana that it is virtually impossible to draw any conclusions. Bottom line: It's a plant and should be grown 100% organic, any additives can cause health risks. This applies to everything from carrots to advocados. Lastly, the only way you can be sure what your smoking is to grow it yourself.
