About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

A National Survey on Drug Use and Health found that approximately 12-million Americans had tried Meth at least once in 2003.
The red is red phosphorus, white is the ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, and blue is iodine, used to make hydroiodic acid. Making crystal meth is dangerous to the people making it and dangerous to the neighborhood where it's being made.
Crystal Meth looks like clear crystal chunks, similar in appearance to actual ice or glass. Crystal Meth is odorless and colorless. 
Meth users put themselves at an increased risk of contracting HIV/AIDS and other dangerous diseases due to needle sharing, rough sex, and lack of protection with condoms.
Although crystal meth is known to cause extreme weight loss the effects are not permanent and many regular meth users experience adaptation where the weight loss no longer occurs as the body becomes used to the effects of the crystal meth. When this happens habitual users may even start to gain weight.
