Add to that one other item. There is a 'side effect' little understood yet regarding stimulants. Over long term use they actually cause weight gain. Stimulants like amphetamines drive neuroactive chemicals such as Dopamine. Dopamine works on receptors in adipose tissue increasing resistance to the metabolism of the the adipose tissue. While most amphetamines are known for anorexia there is a unusal result coming out in some studies that attribute presistant fat to dopamine resistance.
MOST PHARMACISTS KNOW OF THIS SIDE EFFECT EVEN IF THEY DON'T COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND THE MECHANISM, which is related to Cholinergic and Adrenergic receptors.
This country must return to priorities of value and not that of impoverishment. Since when do our children come last in priority in this nation?
