Alzheimer's sufferers may benefit from cannabis compound

Scientists are suggesting that cannabis can offer some benefit for Alzheimer's sufferers.

"The scientists from Israel and Spain say cannabis-based treatments could improve memory loss in Alzheimer's sufferers.

The revelation was made this week at a symposium of cannabis experts hosted by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain (RPSGB) where the scientists said that a compound present in cannabis significantly slows memory problems caused by the disease."

This the first time I have heard the suggestion that marijuana may actually improve memory!
