@UberQuin asked us: which one is worse, alcohol or drugs? This question has kept scientists busy for years. What you decide to use can affect your body and how you interact with others. Also, some drugs are more addictive than others. 🍻
Open University researcher Gjalt-Jorn Peters explains what happens to you when you use drugs. In this video from the Workshop, he puts alcohol, cocaine, cannabis, XTC and coffee by the ruler. 📏
