Beating a Marijuana Employment Drug Test

Employers use labs that adhere to the mandatory federal workplace guidelines for drug testing programs. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration, a federal program enacted by Congress in 1992, publish these guidelines. The rules state that an employer can require one or more preliminary test, followed by confirmatory tests. Prospective employees will most likely have to submit to a urinalysis. Although there are other types of drug testing, approximately 90 percent of the estimated annual 55 million tests done in the United States are urine tests. While urinalysis does not detect marijuana or other illicit drugs, urinalysis does detect non-psychoactive metabolites, indicating whether a person has used a substance previously.
For marijuana users this is bad news because, THC-COOH, the main metabolite of marijuana, is fat-soluble and can remain detectable by a urine test for days or weeks, depending on frequency of use. For both causal and infrequent users, the urinalysis test can detected metabolites just hours after a single use. For chronic or regular users, urinalysis can be detect metabolites several days or weeks of prior use.

Dilution

One of the best methods to help beat a urine test is dilution. Before an upcoming drug test on short notice, a person should drink large quantities of water--up to 120 fluid ounces before the test. This is a practical and inexpensive method and according to a recent testimony to Congress by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, it is still one of the most effective ways of beating a urine test. For the chivalrous, add water to the urine sample. However, be aware that dilution may cause urine to become clear and lose its yellow glow. Taking Vitamin B will help restore the yellow in natural appearing urine for those that choose to dilute.

What Does Sleep Do for People?

A number of tasks vital to health and quality of life relate to sleep and these tasks are impaired when people are sleep deprived.

Learning, Memory and Mood

Students who have trouble grasping new information or learning new skills should "sleep on it," and that advice seems well founded. Recent studies reveal that people can learn a task bet­ter by sleeping enough. People can also remember better with a good restful sleep after learning the task. Volunteers had to sleep at least six hours to show improvement in learning. Other studies suggest that all the benefits of training for mentally chal­lenging tasks become apparent after a restful sleep, rather than immediately following the training or after sleeping for a short period overnight.
Many well-known artists and scientists claim to have had creative insights while sleeping. Mary Shelley, for example, said the idea for the novel "Frankenstein" came in a dream. Although not proven that dreaming is the driving force behind innovation, one study suggests that sleep is necessary for creative problem solving. In that study, volunteers performed a memory task and then took a test eight hours later. Participants who slept for eight hours immediately after receiving the task and before being tested were much more likely to find a creative way of simplifying the task and had heightened performance compared to those who were awake the entire eight hours before the test.

No one knows exactly what happens during sleep that improves learning, memory and insight. Experts suspect, however, that while people sleep, the body can form or reinforce the pathways of brain cells needed to perform certain tasks. This process may explain why infants need sleep in order to have proper brain development.
Not only is restful sleep required to form new learning and memory pathways in the brain, sleep is also necessary for those pathways to work up to speed. Several studies show that lack of sleep causes thinking processes to slow down. Lack of sleep also makes it harder to focus and pay attention. Lack of sleep can make people more easily confused. Studies also find a lack of sleep leads to faulty decision making and more risk taking. A lack of sleep slows down reaction time, which is particularly significant in driving and other tasks that require quick responses. When people who lack sleep undergo a test by using a driving simulator, these people perform just as poorly as people who are drunk. (See "Crash in Bed, Not on the Road"). The bottom line is: not getting a good sleep can be dangerous!
Even when days are not mentally or physically challenging, people should still get enough sleep to be in a good mood. Most people report being irritable, if not downright unhappy, when lacking sleep. People who chronically suffer from a lack of sleep, either because there is not enough time spent in bed or because of an untreated sleep disorder, are at greater risk of developing depression. One group of people who usually do not get enough sleep is mothers of newborns. Some experts think depression after childbirth (postpartum blues) is, in part, a result of lack of sleep.

The Heart

Sleep gives the heart and vascular system much-needed rest. During non-REM sleep, the heart rate and blood pressure progres­sively slow as people enter deeper sleep. During REM sleep, the heart rate and blood pressure have boosted spikes of activity. Overall, however, sleep reduces the heart rate and blood pressure by about 10 percent.
If people do not get enough sleep, this nightly dip in blood pressure, which appears to be important for good cardiovascular health, may not occur. According to several studies, if blood pressure does not dip during sleep, people are more likely to experience strokes, chest pain known as angina, an irregular heartbeat and heart attacks. People are also more likely to develop congestive heart failure, a condition in which fluid builds up in the body because the heart is not pumping sufficiently. Insufficient sleep time, an untreated sleep disorder or other factors can result in failure to experience the normal dip in blood pressure during sleep. African Americans, for example, tend not to have as much of a dip in blood pressure during sleep. This difference may help to explain why African Americans are more likely than Caucasians to have serious cardiovascular disease.
A lack of sleep also puts the body under stress and may trigger the release of more adrenaline, cortisol and other stress hormones during the day. These hormones contribute to blood pressure not dipping during sleep, thereby increasing the risk for heart disease. Inadequate sleep may also negatively affect the heart and vascular system by the increased production of certain proteins thought to play a role in heart disease. For example, some studies find that people who chronically do not get enough sleep have higher blood levels of C-reactive protein. Higher levels of this protein may suggest a greater risk of developing hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis).
