How Long Does Marijuana Stay In Body?

default
Posted on Tue, 12 Jan 2016
Question: I am 6'2", 245 lbs and 66 years old. I retired last year but have been offered a new job that I would like to take. However, I've been smoking a lot of marijuana since retiring and the new job requires a drug test (urine). The job doesn't start for about 60 days and I don't have to take the test until then. Will all traces of marijuana have left my body in 60 days?
What can I do to speed things up naturally?

Brief Answer:
not needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
There is no possibility to speed it up and this is not necessary. Al you need is not to smoke it from now on. It can be detected after after 60 days by standard tests unless you are extremely heavy smoker for more than 10 years. Wish you good health. Regards
