Heroin Users Beware

As if there weren’t enough reasons to not use heroin, here is one more for those of you still weighing the pros and cons of a life of drug-enduced poverty and misery. According to medical researchers, heroin use leads to an insoluable protein called tau to be meshed into the brain’s “tangles,” and it is unclear whether this build-up would be reversable even if the drug use were to cease. The result could be problems with learning, memory and emotion (not to mention jail, HIV, and ugly little needle marks).

I don’t know about you but the next time someone offers me black tar Afghan H, I think I just say no!
