Cannabis Compounds Support Healthy Aging, Study Finds

TL;DR Summary
A UK review of 18 studies suggests that compounds in cannabis, particularly CBD and THC, may have anti-aging benefits such as reducing inflammation and protecting the brain, with promising results in animal studies but mixed findings in humans. However, more extensive research is needed to understand the effects fully, especially considering individual differences and long-term impacts. The study emphasizes that cannabis could be part of a broader approach to healthy aging, which includes lifestyle factors like diet and exercise.
