Reversing bad physical effects of cannabis

The effects of ginkgo biloba are not selective like vinpocetine is. Just use vinpocetine.
 
I dont think taking in other drugs and chemicals would be the best option because they are unnatural to you body. Cutting down, not quitting, smoking will be the best choice you ever made. Once a week is good, because not only does your body have time to recover and diminish most of the negative effects, but you also get much higher.
 
managing side effects

I'm a multiple-times daily smoker and as of now I experience no side effects from weed except for some hormonal-related (I guess) hair thinning.

Piracetam 1200mg 3x daily - enchances memory, concentration; stimulates corpus callosum
Choline Citrate 330 mg 3x daily - keeps you from getting headaches from Piracetam and enhances memory on its own
DMAE 75 mg 3x daily - boosts acetylcholine levels in brain by inhibiting peripheral synthesis; helps with memory, focus
Acetyl-L-Carnitine 500 mg 3x daily - enhances energy, vitality, concentration
Ginkgo Biloba extract 90 mg 2x daily - memory and microcirculation
Bacopa Mannieri 20% extract 500 mg 2x daily - memory, anti-anxiety
Panax Ginseng 300 mg 2x daily - energy
Royal Jelly 100 mg 2x daily - good nutrient, provides more acetylcholine
Gotu Kola 450 mg 2x daily - helps with memory, blood flow, skin problems
St John's Wort 300mg 2x daily - anti-anxiety, anti-depressant
Vitamin C 1000 mg 3x daily - good for immune system, also inhibits cortisol, the stress hormone
Idebenone 50 mg 2x daily - fights free radicals, stimulates corpus callosum, enhances serotonin synthesis
Multivitamin
Omega 3 8g daily - google for fish oil and see all the diff. benefits
750 ug melotonin at night - restores circadian rhythms, which weed disrupts
by causing massive releases of melotonin when you smoke it - why you get sleepy, which gives you better concentration / memory / motivation the next day
5mg Adderall as needed - causes vasopressin release, enhances concentration and working memory and motivation

do you exercise? I smoke pot but I work out and exercise as well, mostly cardiovascular workouts.

I really have no problem with school or studying for tests. Don't smoke before important shit and you should be fine.
 
I think that might be the greatest idea yet. My roommates and I are lazy and tend to do nothing but sit around and watch tv. I started exercising more and I can definitely feel the difference.
 
the thing about negative effects from heavy pot use is simply that heavy smokers are unaware of the negative effects from daily pot use because they are unable to notice them for the most part...
I have been a daily smoker for half of my life now until recently. I never thought it effected me negativly at all because I was a pothead. And like most potheads I could not allow myself to think that the thing wich brought me so much joy in life, was actually the thing causing me so much misory in life. My grades never suffered from pot smoking, my job never suffered from pot smoking, nothing at all about me went downhill. At the same time, nothing went uphill. I was in denial about how bad for me pot actually was. Most of the problems that I have actually suffered from pot has been not proggressing, because I could not progress when I wasnt living. I donno if this makes sense to those of you who still smoke pot, but anyone that has quit for a whie I am sure have noticed this. I dont even know how to deal with emotions currently because I never dealt with them before. I basically have to learn how to live life now that my life is no longer smoking pot. Sorry for rambling, I hope someone out there can relate with me on this... (rereading what this post is about I realise I have gotten quite off topic, too fucking bad lol)
 
Jew Balls, I agree with much of what you are saying. I especially agree that when you are a smoker you tend to not deal with emotions really well and that when you stop, these emotions can seem very hard to deal with.

I've been off now for a few months and things that never really seemed to matter to me now hurt a lot more. I broke up with my girlfriend at new years and normally I would be fine, just get home have a smoke and feel great. Now I don't know what to do with myself. I go to the gym every day and feel fine but as soon as I'm home again I'm all mopey and depressed. I guess you just need to find other ways of keeping busy.:(

Plus I can't sleep at all! Nearly every night for the last three months all I can do is lie in bed and wait to fall asleep. This takes 4 to 5 hours! If I'm lucky I'll get 3 solid hours per night. If I wake up in the middle of the night, thats it. I'm awake till morning! I'm really getting sick of this and it's driving me crazy.

I'm sure this all relates to no weed and If anyone knows how long this lasts, please let us know...

Im the opposite. FOr me weed always made me feel very overly emotional and upset. I deal with my emotions way better with that stuff out of my system.

Thats just it, I didn't deal with my emotions at all. I just smoked them all away. Quite effective but definitly not charactor building.
