New research @BMJMentalHealth 🧠🌿 Cannabis use in older adults was not linked to faster cognitive decline or higher dementia risk in large UK & US cohorts. Observational & genetic analyses found no evidence that cannabis contributes substantially to cognitive ageing or dementia. As use rises in later life, ongoing research remains important, especially around dose & long-term exposure.
