You people are aware it said slightly in quotations. and still just because its hydrating your body still doesn't kill the fact its destroying your liver and making your motor skills worse by hurting your brain. Did you also notice it didn't say there motor skills improved by drinking beer, or concentration ability. So you hydrate faster that's it, even though you hydrate faster, take to guys one that drinks water and one that drinks beer, who do you think will die first. Sad to say, but marijuana is healthier than beer.(im not condoning marijuana either though) Marijuana doesn't harm the body"as much".
