A dangerous Drug very common in kenya BHANG
BHANG
The plant Cannabis sativa is the source of both Bhang, hashish and hashish oil. The leaves, flowers, and twigs of the plant are crushed to produce marijuana; its concentrated resin is hashish while an extract of hashish using vegetable oil gives hashish oil. The active ingredient in Bhang is delta -9 -tetrahydrocannabinol or THC.(THC) in Bhang has been found to have high affinity for the fatty structures hence in addition to the brain, Bhang has been found to affect the liver, the respiratory, reproductive, and blood cell systems.Bhang use causes: a state of relaxation, accelerated heart beat rate, perceived slowing of time, and a sense of heightened hearing, taste, touch, and smell. These effects vary depending on the amount of drug consumed and the circumstances under which it is taken. Bhang and hashish are not thought to produce psychological dependence except when taken in large daily doses. The drug can be dangerous, however, especially when smoked before an activity requiring concentration like driving..

Drug Abuse Poem
When an individual begins to abuse drugs, the whole family is affected. Depending on the severity of the addiction, he may begin to steal or borrow money from the family, begin to act strange, and spend days living on the street. The only thing that is important is how he will get his next high. There may be conflicts ...in the family about how to treat this individual. Some may continue to support him while others adopt a tough love strategy. It is difficult to know what to do, and heartbreaking to see an individual become a slave to a substance.
