WSU study finds gender gap in effects of pot
Shawn Vestal The Spokesman-Review
Call it the marijuana gap.
Men and women may respond differently to the effects of pot’s active ingredient, THC, according to new research by a Washington State University professor. In experiments on lab rats, females were more sensitive to the pain-relieving qualities of the drug, but quicker to develop a tolerance to it than the males. Other studies have suggested that females are more susceptible to negative effects of the drugs and experience less of an increase in appetite.
