All you need to know about: treating addiction
The roots of addiction medicine began in the ancient civilisations of Africa and Europe. Special methods to care for persons addicted to alcohol were developed in ancient Egypt. There are references to individuals considering chronic intoxication as a sickness that enslaved the body and soul dating back to the fifth century BC.Native American healers used botanical agents (hop tea) to suppress cravings for alcohol, and the root of the trumpet vine to induce aversion to alcohol. In 1774, Anthony Benezet published the book 'Mighty Destroyer Displayed', where he observed that intoxication had a tendency to self-accelerate: “Drops beget drams, and drams beget more drams, till they become to be without weight or measure.”

Why India must uphold stringent standards in cosmetics
