colon intestinal cleansing and restoration - vital for good health
Often a colon / intestinal cleansing may be helpful to clean out the drugs and associated toxins. Adding to the problem of addiction is another problem known as drug tolerance. With continued drug use, the body starts to need more and more of the drug for the person to feel good and avoid the withdrawal symptoms. Many drug users increase the dosage too much and they die, or come very near to death, from the overdose. Drug addiction has both a powerful physical psychological as well as psychological components. In fact, with many kinds of drugs, addiction is mainly a problem with the psychological dependence upon the drug. While psychological dependence does not normally cause physical withdrawal symptoms after the person quits using the drug, it can result in deep cravings or desires that may last long after the physical addiction has already been beaten.> >
Most people know that drug overdose can kill, however many people do not know drugs are poisons or toxins that can kill you in other ways like: Angina, Heart attack, coronary and cardiovascular disease, severe damage to heart muscle, and damage to the immune system sometimes destroying 40% of the white blood cells. The weakening of the immune system makes the person more vulnerable to infection and other disease. An increasing threat of AIDS exists for drug addicts that use needles to deliver the drug.
Drug use often starts in childhood or teenage years. However, alcohol and smoking cigarettes are still two of the most widely accessible and legal drugs. Most young people using drugs start with one of these, then move into using less accessible or illegal drugs such as marijuana and ecstacy. Many young drug users think that common drugs such as alcohol and marijuana are pretty much harmless. They also believe that they can quit at any time without any problem. However, instead of quitting, many of them may turn to use stronger more powerful drugs. Drug usage also has a tendency to negatively impact the nutritional processing in the human body.
