Marijuana Facts
Marijuana has a strong and distinct odor that is not easy to wash off and that can remain on the breath despite repeated brushing.
Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, one of nearly 400 chemicals in a hemp plant, accounts for most of marijuana's psychoactive, or mind-altering, effects. The strength of the drug is determined by the amount of THC it contains.
Smoking marijuana causes some changes in the brain that are like those caused by cocaine, heroin, and alcohol.
THC suppresses the neurons in the information-processing system of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that is crucial for learning, memory, and the integration of sensory experiences with emotions and motivation.
