According to a <a href="http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a911211653">new study</a> in the <em>American Journal on Addictions</em>, the herb is beneficial in treating &#8220;opiate dependence,&#8221; when taken in conjunction with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naltrexone">naltrexone</a>. That&#8217;s right, weed could potentially help junkies trying to kick heroin, Oxycontin, and the endless list of opiate-derived drugs. Says the smart people, &#8220;These findings are of interest because they suggest the hypothesis that moderate cannabis use may be exerting a beneficial pharmacological effect improving the tolerability of naltrexone in the early weeks after induction.&#8221; The medicinal benefits just don&#8217;t quit. </p>
