TruthOnPot.com – Contrary to popular belief, the brain doesn’t stop growing after reaching a certain age. In fact, brain cells are constantly being generated in adults through a process called neurogenesis. Now groundbreaking research from Italy shows that a fairly unknown chemical in marijuana called cannabichromene (CBC) could help with this process. Published last week in the journal Neurochemistry International, the authors wrote: “In conclusion, CBC may exert potential actions on brain health through effects on adult neural stem cells.” Specifically, cannabichromene appeared to increase the viability of developing brain cells – known to scientists as adult neural stem progenitor cells (NSPC). In adults, neurogenesis occurs in a specific area of the brain important for memory and learning: The hippocampus. Previous studies show that the brain is capable of producing over 5,000 new cells each day, although this number seems to decline with age. #northernexposure #cali
