Marijuana dangerous to the developing brain - Journal Advocate: The younger you are, the more harm marijuana use can do to your brain. That was the message Jade Woodard, executive director of the Colorado Alliance for Drug Endangered Children, shared during a free educational program on marijuana last week at Sterling Middle School.
Part of her presentation included information about the effects of marijuana on the brain. She explained that there are cannabinoid receptors in all of the significant portions of the brain and using marijuana throws off the function of all of those parts of the brain.
