You would have to know the negative effects of smoking marijuana. But it turns out marijuana also has benefits. Recent research has shown that people who regularly smoke marijuana have a lower risk of developing diabetes.
Marijuana users had lower insulin levels. This indicates control blood sugar better. If the link between cannabis and prevention of diabetes clarified, then it is likely researchers will develop diabetes treatments using the substance in cannabis, namely THC (tetrahydrocannabinol).
The study, published in The American Journal of Medicine found that people who smoke marijuana regularly have insulin levels 16 percent lower compared with those who never smoked marijuana.
Those who used marijuana also known to have a smaller waist, while a large waist circumference can increase a person's risk of developing diabetes.
Currently marijuana is generally used in patients with cancer or experiencing severe pain. The use of marijuana as medicine is allowed in 18 states, as reported by the Daily Mail.
The study looked at 4,657 patients. Approximately 579 people use marijuana, 1,975 marijuana use in the past but had stopped, and 2,013 people have never used marijuana. Insulin and glucose were then measured through participants' blood samples after fasting for nine hours.
As a result, users of cannabis had insulin levels 16 percent lower than those who had never used marijuana at all. Murray Mittleman of the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Research Unit at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center also explained that in previous studies researchers found that rates of obesity and diabetes is lower in cannabis users.
Although the substance in the cannabis plant is known to control and prevent diabetes insulin, Indonesia would allow the use of marijuana for treatment?
