Well, I was surfing the web and the most interesting thing appeared.
http://www.sciencenews.org/view/feat..._Cold_War_Herb
So, I did some more research and pulled up a little article on it on Wiki.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodiola_rosea
So, could this be the "cure all" we've been looking for for so long? Could we incorporate it, legally, into the real world? Could it be used for sports? Government projects? The possibilities are pretty much endless. Tell me what you think.
Thanks for telling me this. We are already fighting steroids, now this! A drug war is starting.
In that case, the drug war has been going on in my neighborhood for the last ten years, lol.
Bad neighborhood then?
No, just... it would be like selling caffeine. Not illegal. Just... stupid, when you can pick it up from a pharmacy or find it in a energy drink.
There are people selling caffeine as a drug?
Edit:
I can't see the science new page.

Caffeine is the highest-used drug in the world. Followed closely by Alcohol.
Caffeine is really a drug? I guess you do learn something new everyday.
Nah, I didn't even know until it came up in Ethics class a couple of weeks ago. Its like the opium of the 20th century, you know? People used to think that it gave such great effects, and then science advanced to show that it was really a load of bollocks, I'm sure the same will happen with caffeine.Quote:

People who drink caffeine don't drink alcohol. People who drink alcohol don't drink caffeine. The only reason caffeine is now the #1 drug is because of soda. I just remembered that.
... ahyup. The truth, it comes out.Quote:

As far as I can tell, people drink soda, caffeinated drinks, and energy drinks totally voluntarily. And its available to a wider range of people. The product trumps alcohol hands down.Quote:

*cough*cigarets or ice*cough*
Probably. I wonder what the whole deal is in cigs? I've never had a chance to analyze it. And ice? What, you mean Meth? Maybe. I would go with crack, but I'm probably wrong. Illegal drugs aren't my forte.Quote:

Yeah. An addiction. LOL.Quote:

You can just buy this drug from your pharmacist. Comes in tablets. I don't see why it would be on the streets as an illegal drug.Quote:
