“Cannabis use has been found to stimulate appetite and potentially promote weight gain via activation of the endocannabinoid system.
Despite the fact that the onset of cannabis use is typically during adolescence, the association between adolescence cannabis use and long-term change in body weight is generally unknown.
This study aims to examine the association between adolescence cannabis use and weight change to midlife, while accounting for the use of other substances.
In conclusion, this study does not provide evidence of an association between adolescence cannabis use and weight change from adolescence to midlife.”
