These policies include: voluntary detoxification for first time drug users and compulsory rehabilitation for those that relapse; providing anti-drug education for the public and in schools; needle exchange programs like those in the United States and increasing the availability of…
Notice: Not a lot of brain cells were damaged in the production of this paper. When this paper first began, I found my opinion about the liver was not the best. I believed that the liver is valuable but only produces waste, which is no fun. However, as I began to research the liver and how it plays a huge part in my daily life it changed my perspective. Most things that humans ingest go through the liver at one point or another. The Liver has the ability to turn ineffective or pointless…
Ribosomes produce protein. The protein is needed for the production of protein, this is required for functions such as repairing or directing chemical processes. Ribosomes could be found around the cell or next to the endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasm is made up of cytosol. In prokaryotes all the cell content is within the cytoplasm whereas with eukaryotes the nucleus is separate from the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless (4). Eukaryotes only contains the…

In a study, hair drug testing is believed to be 4-8 times more likely to detect drug users than using urine drug testing. Hair drug testing may not be as popular as drug testing using urine and blood, but it can also be useful in detecting the presence (not the amount) of a drug in an individual by cutting 1.5 in from the root. Amphetamine can be detected on an individual’s hair up to 90 days after use. This means that regardless of how short or how long your hair grows, laboratory technicians…
Drug rehab programs ensure a new lease on life by rejuvenating the body, mind, and spirit of the drug addicts. They enable the patients to stop the use of psychoactive substances for their normal existence. They also lessen or avoid the psychological, legal, financial, social, and physical effects of these drugs on the addicts.

Teeth and bone have a natural affinity for fluoride, thus making it a desirable replacement for the hydroxyl group in the hydroxyapatite crystals. To a certain extent, bone deposition represents a form of detoxification by decreasing other [soft] tissues’ exposure to fluoride. The rate of fluoride deposition into skeletal tissues is related to the rate of bone mineral turnover. Growing children tend to have a greater rate of fluoride deposition than a fully grown…
in digestion? The livers role in digestion is detoxification, creation, regulation, processing and storage. Without this multipurpose organ digestion of carbohydrates, fats and protein would not yield as much energy for body function. Also many common foods would be so toxins that would cause death or serious damage if consumed. The livers first role is producing enzymes to counter toxic compounds consumed in the diet. An example of its detoxification role is with alcohol, which is a stable in…
