A new study conducted by researchers at the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, exposes shocking finding that even small dose of ecstasy can be harmful, especially for brain’s health. Before coming ahead with this conclusion Dr. de Win and colleagues studied about 188 volunteers with no history of ecstasy use and concluded that the neurotoxical effects of ecstasy were shocking because a small dose of ecstasy showed a decrease in blood circulation in some areas of the brain in young adults.
Expressing the finding Dr. Maartje de Win, radiology resident at the Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam said, ‘We found a decrease in blood circulation in some areas of the brain in young adults who just started to use ecstasy.’ Moreover, this study further pulls out other facts like use of ecstasy can damage serotonergic neurons in the brain, leaving a person with depression, anxiety, confusion and with weaker memory.
These are really shocking revelations as prolonged use of ecstasy may turn a person’s life into a hell. Therefore, it is better to say no to ecstasy for good.
