I think you hit the nail on the head in this statement. Reminds me of an article I read in Men's Health about a small town off the coast of Italy (can't recall the name). This town regularly has people live past their 100's - some in their 110s and beyond. I think the "town record" was 130 something. This was never "official," as he died sometime early last century.

Anyway, these people live by the motto "Everything is healthy in moderation, everything is unhealthy in excess." This is largely one of the things they accredit their longevity to.

I'm sure the same most things are healthy in moderation, including cannabis. Alcohol is good in moderation. In fact, they now say a glass or two of alcohol a day is healthy for you.
