What is more harmful? Weed, Alcohol or coffee.

 According to the dependence to damage scale .If you make a graph of these external substance and it's dependence or harm on your body at the bottom we have weed or bhaang or CANNABIS or ganja or Marijuana at the same level of dependence we have coffee and caffeine which is more harmful for your body and is as addictive to your body as cannabis.Then we have Tobacco and Alcohol which is much more harmful and have more dependence .At the top of damage we have herione and cocaine and this scale start getting to worse .so the things at bottom are quite safer than these to our body.

Weed isn't as harmful as tobacco , alcohol or even coffee. Cannabis  is thought as a drug because it is grouped in the same category with other drugs like herione.But still less harmful than other external substances like alcohol that's why a lot of youngsters are embracing things like these.But that is also the biggest problem related to weed because  your happiness depends on an external substance it always a wrong situation to be in . When you say word weed people automatically assume it as harmful external substance without knowing the science about it .Yes it is harmful but comparatively surely not. I just want to make one thing clear that I do not condone it neither I promote the use But one must say no to alcohol,tobacco, herione, cocaine like substance because they are really going to harm your body to greater extent .If you google the good and bad effects of these you will find very biased articles on both sides.The bad ones will tell you that weed is worst thing good ones will tell you that it is god's scent but we are just going to shit some science out of it because their is no neutral perspective about it .
