About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

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. 
Recent animal and test tube research shows that meth abuse may suppress killer T cells, a type of white blood cell that fights off germs.
Some doctors have misdiagnosed meth addicts as Schizophrenics if they were unaware of their drug addiction. The drug makes its users appear to have the same symptoms as Schizophrenia.
A meth user who is tweaking experiences intense drug cravings. However, no dosage will recreate the euphoric high they are looking for.
Common chemicals and ingredients that can be used to produce meth include: Acetone, Anhydrous ammonia, Battery acid (sulfuric acid), Brake cleaner (toluene), Cold tablets containing pseudoephedrine, Drain cleaner (sodium hydroxide), Freon, Iodine crystals, Paint thinner, Reactive metals (sodium or lithium), Red phosphorus and Starting fluid (ether).
