Question by Hooded Ikerus: Lifestyle Choice: Short term effect on body functioning from the use of drugs?
Hi, I’m doing a Human Bio report and I need a little more information on the subject I’m doing. Does anyone have any information on what the use of drugs (including alcohol and smoking) would effect your body function in the short term, the effect on your future health, and individual differences.
If anyone has any information, I really appreciate it
Thank you!
