If you care about your brain cells, then don't drink alcohol either

Alcohol is a Class 1 drug (yup, together with cocaine and heroin) in terms of damage to individuals and society. Marijuana is No. 9 on this list, No. 10 being the least harmful. This won't be popular with the many "responsible" people who would never touch drugs (but who drink regularly), but the truth is, whether you want to admit it or not, alcohol is the enemy, not pot. Unlike alcohol, pot does not make people violent or unable to remember what they did while under the influence. This is a fact. Alcohol kills brain cells by depleting the brain of oxygen which causes massive brain cell destruction. So, if you don't want brain cell death, you're going to have to give up your daily tipple as well!!!

I suppose there's always tea (of course with no sugar as sugar feeds cancer cells). Gee, life's sounding like more fun all the time!

Cyber hugs,
