Drug Safety: Doctor's Medical Guide to Using Drugs Safely

Here's a myth that's literally killing people: 'Teaching someone how to use drugs safely encourages drug use.' The neuroscience tells us the complete opposite. When we activate the prefrontal cortex through education and planning — the same brain region damaged by addiction — we're actually strengthening the neural pathways responsible for impulse control and decision-making. Countries with comprehensive harm reduction see 37% fewer overdose deaths and 42% higher recovery rates. And by the end of this podcast, you'll understand exactly why harm reduction isn't enabling addiction — it's rewiring the brain for recovery.
