Does marijuana deplete vitamins in the body?

No. Marijuana does not deplete any "vitamins" in the body. It does cause less iron to be carried in your hemoglobin in your blood, so you get a tired/lazy feeling but that's only temporary while you're actually under the effects of the drug. Marijuana mimics a certain chemical that is natural to your body and brain that controls appetite, mood, sleepiness, anxiety, etc. The only real harm it does to you is in your lungs, which can be alleviated with a vaporizer or by eating it instead of smoking.
