Coffee and drugs examined in student study insights
A Columbia University psychology professor studied coffee alcohol and narcotics effects on 50 student volunteers. One cup of coffee boosts quickness and fluency but more than one cup causes confusion. Alcohol reduces brain stimulation and increases drowsiness. Coffee is not a drug and alcohol is a physical stimulant with harm and addiction risk. Narcotics like opium cocaine and heroin provoke a cycle of exhilaration depression and compulsive use. Dr. Simon links prohibition to drug use as separate issues. moderate drinking does not guarantee avoiding addiction, but narcotics lead to dependence.
