Some people take marijuana because it believed that it increases our immunity system is it true??

 

Depends on who you ask

 

cannabis can suppress your immune system, for many that is a great thing

that is what drugs like prednisone do to us too (prednisone is a hateful drug, but very much needed by many)

Suppression tells our body's to stop fighting infections and to take a break. (over-simplified)

 

example kidney transplant patients needs to suppress their immune system -to keep it from rejecting the new kidney - cannabis may help with this

 

CBD (a component of cannabis) may actually work to strengthen the immune system and as an anti inflammatory too (kinda all related)

 

-so yes, cannabis could increase our 'immunity system' (but don't expect miracles)
