Getting High Before Drinking Leads to Much Less Alcohol Consumption Says New Study

According to researchers from Colorado State University, the study participants reported less alcohol cravings and drank less booze following pot consumption. The study, whose results were published in the medical journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence, involved offering alcoholic drinks every 15 minutes within a 1-hour session to participants. In sessions when they were allowed to partake weed before the session, they noticed that the subjects experienced a reduced intake of alcoholic beverages by 25%.
