Prescription Drugs Kill More Young People than Auto Accidents

In Ohio, fatal overdoses of prescription drugs have more than quadrupled in the last decade. By 2007, they had surpassed car crashes as the leading cause of accidental death. The Obama administration has announced plans to fight prescription drug addiction nationally -- across the country, the problem is now killing more people than crack cocaine in the 1980’s and heroin in the 1970’s combined.

The vast majority of young people get the drugs indirectly from dealers and other users who have access to prescriptions.
According to the New York Times:
“Families are joining forces to combat the problem. Mothers whose children died from addiction have started to picket clinics that they believed were reckless with prescriptions.”

  2. Prescription drugs, surgery, pain killers, etc, just numb your pain and don’t do anything to fix the problem, yet they are responsible for 106,000 deaths per year.

    Eat less food. Eat healthier food. Exercise. Don’t smoke. Get adjusted by your chiropractor. These simple lifestyle choices all have a positive long-term impact on your health.
