This video will give you a quick idea of what is probably one of the biggest problems sweeping America today: MethAmphetamine.

Usually known as ‘Meth’ or ‘Ice’ – it is a purified form of speed. It can be snorted, smoked, eaten or injected – but the most dangerous thing is that it can be make out of fairly common and easily available household chemicals. The main ingredient is Ephedrine or Pseudoephedrine, which is found easily in common cold medications such as Sudafed and Sinutab. It is highly addictive and ruins lives faster than any other drug has before…

Some excellent ads have been launched trying to spread awareness of its danger, this once I think is particularity effective.

This PBS Frontline documentary is an excellent indepth look into the widespread problem in middle America. A full feature length film has also been made, which is narrated my Val Kilmer, called “American Meth“.
