Drug Abuse and Genetic Damage: the Sad Untold Story Whether it’s recreational drug abuse or prescription drug abuse, there is an unseen element… an untold side of this story that many young and old drug abusers don’t often suspect. What most drug abusers don’t know or give much thought to is the fact that all drugs have some toxic side effects when taken over an extended time. This includes gene mutation and destruction of bodily cells. When a drug abuser has consistently used a particular drug, such as cocaine, heroin, meth, or a prescription medication, for an extensive time, the genetic structure of his cells can change to such an extent that:
Excessive drug abuse can bring about what many consider to be only minor genetic changes. While that may or may not be true, the question is; “would you like to be the parent of a new born baby adversely affected by those ‘minor’ genetic changes in your body?” If you’re a recreational or prescription drug abuser, a so-called minor change in your cellular genes could create a series of events leading to:
When you allow your drug abuse problem to continue unchecked, these events can lead to serious symptoms of diseases, such as arthritis, cancer, emphysema, high blood pressure, depression and obesity. It’s worth repeating that, if you’re a recreational or prescription drug abuser, any children you’re thinking of having may be horribly affected by your addictive habit. Once the damage is done it can rarely, if ever, be undone. On the other hand, if you’re a child of parents where one or both were habitual drug abusers, take comfort in the fact that, given what may be your genetic limitations, you have within your grasp the power to ensure your quality of life can be as rich and fulfilling as you want it to be. I have seen many patients, who were adversely affected physically, emotionally and psychologically, by the drug abuse issues of one or both parents, make remarkable recoveries by intelligent planning of their lifestyles and dietary habits. Drug abuse is a problem of gigantic proportions that will be with us as long as we have a fascination in American society for wanting more stimulation and sensation in our lives. Until we learn to be content with ourselves and begin focusing more on how we can be of greater service to our fellows and more attentive to the needs of our families and our nation as a whole, instead of only catering to our own wants and desires, drug abuse will be a constant, undesirable social element to be reckoned with. ========================================================= What would you give to permanently overcome any street or prescription drug abuse problem and reclaim your good health, your happiness and your life, at home, in 30 days?
