Drugs Live: Cannabis (Channel4)

So the long awaited Cannabis Live Drug trial is soon  to be aired on Channel4.  The Ecstasy drugs trial which ran sometime in 2012 was really great fully informed an well put together. Its consisted of giving participants drugs and or a placebo an monitoring there reactions.

The same is to happen for cannabis. Along with having a live audience & the use of social media, It really is been set up for all to try an take part.

Two of the world’s leading experts on the effects of illegal drugs on the brain, psychopharmacologists Professor Val Curran from UCL and Professor David Nutt from Imperial College will follow the trial as its conducted at University College London.

In reality its nice to get a clear view on the drugs we be consuming.  
I have no exact date on air time as of yet but I can tell you the participants will be using old style cannabis resin, “skunk” and a placebo and then undergo MRI scans and a variety of cognitive tests to assess the affects on memory and on psychological well being.

Stay Informed stay safe.
