A recent study revealed that individuals starting substance use, such as cannabis, cigarettes, or alcohol before age 15, displayed significant brain differences compared to those who did not. These changes were observed even before the first instance of use. Furthermore, the study evaluated a successful prevention program aimed at at-risk youth, contributing to insights into proactive measures against substance use disorders. By identifying vulnerability factors in teenagers, this study provides valuable information for addressing early drug-use impacts on brain health.
A recent study found that the brains of individuals who began using substances like cannabis, cigarettes, or alcohol before age 15 exhibited differences before their first use.
The findings indicate that vulnerability factors can be identified in adolescents, which may help prevent substance use disorders before they begin.
