Is Juliet 35 Different To Diane 35

The "soft" drugs


Many people consider the snuff and alcohol and soft drugs, by the mere fact that they are legal drugs and because they are deeply rooted in our society. In my opinion talking about soft drugs is a hypocrisy and reveals a great ignorance of the effects of them.

Few drugs are so highly carcinogenic as snuff, "Cigarette smoking is, by itself, the main cause cancer mortality in the United States. "Nicotine is also the most addictive drug known. It might be of above, but although many people do not know: the snuff has the privilege of being the drug that causes more deaths in the West. Some facts you should know is that according to WHO.

"Today the world is over 1,000 million smokers, half will die from their habit.

" The snuff cause 10,000 deaths daily. 500 million people alive today will die of snuff.

"The snuff now kills more than 4 million people each year and by 2030 that figure will rise to 10 million.

-Countries developing consume more 70% of global snuff.

"For 2020, the snuff will be producing nearly 6 million deaths in developing countries.

For alcohol, this has the privilege of being the most potentially destructive drug, and which generates more social unrest. No drug causes a similar destruction of the personality (Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome). Besides abstinence syndrome "monkey" is the only alcohol that can lead to death (delirium tremens). Besides alcohol consumption during pregnancy causes fetal alcohol syndrome characterized by irreversible mental retardation. Not to mention that only liver cirrhosis in Spain cause 22000 deaths a year.

"The alcohol caused 2.3 million deaths worldwide last year

" It's the fifth factor for premature death and disability, causing 4.4% of the global burden of morbidity (illness).

-Its use was associated with 6.1% of male deaths occurred worldwide in 2006, a rate among women was 1.1%.

-The effects of alcohol consumption are higher among younger people of both sexes, especially due to fatal injuries (leading cause of death in Western countries).

Something that shocked me even more is the fact that certain groups want to be recognized that cannabis as a soft drug that it should be legal. In my opinion this is a big mistake, the psychophysical effects of cannabis are very serious, including some as serious as schizophrenia. Many friends of mine are regular users of cannabis, is facimente warns that facial expression and language totally altered.

I hope everyone who has read this article, the idea of \u200b\u200bthe fact that there are no soft drugs, and understand that all drugs pose great harm to health and society.
