Cannabis lovers are less likely to damage the liver, Chinese doctors found.

Cannabis users are 25% less likely to develop hepatic steatosis, a disease associated with the accumulation of fat in the organ. Those who have smoked marijuana at least once in their lives have a 7% lower risk compared to those who have never used cannabis. These conclusions were reached by Chinese doctors during a study involving 2.6 thousand people, more than half of whom used cannabis. The results can be explained by the peculiarities of the work of the endocannabinoid system.
