That's the chart that I saw on WedMD created by the Independent Scientific Committee on Drugs (ICSD) in a study conducted by ex British substance analyst and some other substance experts Is alcohol really more harmful to your body than crack and heroine? Are mushrooms really low in risk? Here's my skepticism. Too much of a good thing is of course bad for you. So how are these analysts giving their patients these substances. There's no legal limit for a large majority of substances of that list. So if you take a tad a dust and 3 glasses of vodka straight I'm pretty sure alcohol would be more harmful to the body don't you think? The justification by the article is that alcohol is linked to more than 50 conditions. While this may be true, are there even consistent testing on illegal substances to link them to 50 diseases? I think not.. I'll hold my horses on this one before I go sniffing cocaine. Bottoms up!
