mugs99 overstated his case in saying, "Medical marijuana supporters have been claiming since 1996 that marijuana helps stop alzheimers disease. That claim has now been proven by scientists." He would have been 100% correct in saying "has been given significant support by scientists."

"He would have been 100% correct in saying "has been given significant support by scientists."The scientists said nothing about marijuana. They were studying THC.
Delta-9-THC, for example, inhibits primary Lewis lung tumor growth, whereas cannabidiol (CBD) enhances tumor growth. How can you possibly conclude that smoking marijuana (which contains both) would have a positive effect?

You're right...Medical marijuana supporters have been claiming since 1996 that marijuana helps stop alzheimers disease. That claim has been given significant support by scientists.
