Marijuana Increases Brain Cells - Makes Marketers Smarter
Okay okay, so I twisted the headline just a little bit. Marijuana doesn't increase brain cells but a new marijuana like drug supposedly does just that. The original headline reads "Marijuana-Like Drug Increases Brain Cells, Relieves Depression". From the FoxNews website...
"A drug modeled on marijuana's active ingredient increased brain cells and appeared to cut anxious, depressed behavior in rats, researchers report.
The drug is called HU210. It's a synthetic drug that is chemically similar to pot's active ingredient and activates cannabinoid receptors in the brain."
One researcher they quoted was from the University of Saskatchewan in Canada. Haha, are you kidding me? I am a bit surprised they didn't quote someone from the University of ChupaCabra.
Then there's the name, HU210, reminds me of OU812 from Van Halen. I wonder if David Lee Roth is a test subject for this new pot replacement.
