The reason and process of why people snort stuff.[People have been doing it for way longer than what you think][Insufflation]

in #science7 years ago (edited)

There is definitely a stigma involved

I thought this video was pretty cool and very informative. I'm sure everyone is aware of people using drugs in this fashion, and maybe you didn't know why. Especially if its something you could just swallow and ingest orally. I would imagine that most people look at it as gross and "drug-addict" like. Haha

Although its probably not too good for your nasal cavity, it definitely makes what you are ingesting have a more rapid onset. People have been consuming substances in this manner for hundreds if not thousands of years.

Me being super interested in human anatomy and pharmacokinetics\pharmacodynamics (I'm a student nurse. Lol), I thought the breakdown of this process was pretty cool. I hope this is as interesting to you as it was to me. I always love teaching and learning new things; as long as it's interesting.
