Marijuana, alcohol, coffee are drugs that effect your glutamate negatively.

I think it’s obvious why they should be avoided.

Glutamate; important to memory, cognition, and mood regulation.

That’s great if you want to avoid it, you can continue to do so while it’s legalized

Caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive drug on the planet.
Sugar is another drug that is openly consumed globally.
Alcohol is both a physical and mentally addictive drug.

Wish more people would talk about this stuff.

Marijuana in my opinion falls short of alcohol but is potentially worse than caffeine and sugar.
Someone can operate heavy machinery while high on caffeine and sugar.
If they ingested a large amount of specific cannabinoid, they'd probably go to sleep.
Alcohol, they couldn't even do their job.

e- nicotine is another drug and studies have shown it's worse than thc or cbd.
Nicotine can be used as an insecticide and that was part of why it was promoted in the tobacco plant's breeding..

Now if we're talking about memory, safe consumption of any substance is critical.
Smoking cannabis out of tinfoil is going to put holes in your brain and cause Alzheimer's disease.

Particuarlly in humans under the age of 21 to 26. The brain is still developing for the average person and under those ages cannabis can affect development.
A lot of drugs / products can affect human brain development as a youth actually. Brake Cleaner shouldn't be used by people who's brains are still developing for example.

e2- sadly we don't live in a world that prizes it's children. Forcing them or putting them into situations with chemicals and molecules that are directly bad for them.
If I started pointing my finger at parents they would get very angry, but they'll continue to have products that hinder their child's development.
In this case, Marijuana is the least of our worries.

The reason I support legalizing marijuana is that it's actually safer than alcohol, a substance that has been legal for about a century now. Another reason is that we shouldn't allow a few bad apples (the few who abuse it) influence our decision on whether to legalize/ban something or not. Alcohol can be blamed for broken families and many deaths (from DUI mostly) but we aren't gonna ban alcohol now, are we?

Marijuana isn't the problem. Stupid/selfish people is the problem, and we shouldn't punish good, moral citizens by banning it. Marijuana has a lot of benefits and allowing it to be legal will allow universities to study it to learn what more it can be used for. I'm certain there is plenty more we can learn about this plant.


It says right in my post I don’t want it made illegal.

Why is glutamae important and how is it impacted by each, tho?

Ramen should give me lots of glutamate then.

Only the oxidated (cured, dried under the sun) cannabis should be allowed, because it's way less psychoactive.
Without regulation it will be like someone posted in this topic: GMOs crazy strains, wrong lol.
