New Book Links Marijuana To Melatonin Production
August 28, 1997, Washington, D.C.: Smoking marijuana stimulates melatonin production in the human body at greater levels than any other known method, allege authors of a new book entitled Your Body's Natural Wonder Drug: Melatonin.
Authors J. Reiter, Ph.D. and Jo Robinson cite an Italian study that discovered significantly higher melatonin levels in subjects who consumed marijuana within the last half-hour than those who abstained. The authors speculate that some of marijuana's therapeutic properties could be linked the increased production of melatonin.
"The fact that smoking marijuana is accompanied by a dramatic increase in melatonin production may explain some of the drug's positive effects, [including] ... being used to counteract the toxicity of chemotherapy, treat migraines, reduce intraocular pressure, minimize pain, treat menstrual cramps, and moderate wasting syndrome in AIDS patients," the authors state.
Truthman said:I think it also has to do with the strength of a persons nerves because I noticed when I started lifting weights, I wouldn't get tired when I puffed, I would just get relaxed.
I would also get high as opposed to stoned.
The only think I can think of to prevent the lazy, tired effects is lifting weights. You will still get relaxed BUT for some reason it doesn't make your lazy and tired. Peace.
