Studies

The Stressed And Depressed Association in no way endorses animal experimentation, viewing it as cruel and of limited value. The only reason that studies involving animal experimentation are found on this page is in the hope that they somehow help to end harm to harmless cannabis users, growers and retailers by influencing those who are still convinced by such evidence.
