I'm tired of seeing biased threads on health effects of cannabis so here I compiled a list of studys, ect on different areas of effects. Note this is not complete but with the help of the community we can add to it.
First I present erowid's health effects page for cannabis. This is where I obtained the first set of studys. I like erowid because it is a nonbiased site whose sole purpose is to educate the public on the effects of mj and other drugs.
