A large study from the University of Colorado found heavy cannabis use is linked to reduced brain activity. Lead researcher Joshua Gowin and neurosurgeon Paul Saphier discuss the impact on health.
The study, published in the journal JAMA Open Network, is the "largest of its kind," according to the university, using brain imaging technology to examine the effects of cannabis use on 1,000 young adults from 22 to 36 years old. Angelica Stabile is a lifestyle reporter for Fox News Digital.
The cannabis users were tested on their "working memory," which is the ability to retain and use information to perform tasks, like solving a math problem.
