Meth Definition
BREAKDOWN OF METH IN BODY-
Introduction-
Methamphetamine is generally referred as “meth”. It is often used for many reasons such as to attain a short-term joy, improve sexual experiences, promote insomnia and enhance motivation.
The breakdown of Meth –
When methamphetamine is ingested, it affects the digestive system. Here is the procedure of breakdown.
The Alimentary Canal - Meth mouth is used to describe a meth consumer’s the rotten and decayed teeth; there are many reasons why this happens. Reasons for it are the users neglect their dental hygiene after taking it; it lowers the mental function and causes decreased blood flow to the mouth which deteriorates the gums and causes the teeth to fall.
Accessory Organs of Digestive System -
The Liver
If the meth is ingested then it is absorbed in the gastrointestinal region which is in small intestines. The small molecules diffuse through the microvilli in the small intestines.
Once they pass the microvilli, they can be diffused through simple epithelial cells of the capillaries and pass by bloodstream. The first stop in bloodstream is in liver through Hepatic Portal veins. In liver meth molecules and toxins from the cooking process are absorbed to one’s liver cells.
The liver is capable of breaking down meth into smaller and simpler chemicals so that that it can be cleaned by the kidneys. With each and every cycle of circulation from bloodstream, more of the drug is broken, filtered and excreted each time.
The Pancreas
Organs are composed of two or more tissues these are composed of two or more cells. The chronic stimulus of meth causes major alterations in pancreatic tissues and causes weakening of blood vessels supplying pancreas with blood; therefore causes lack of oxygen. If pancreas ceases to function appropriately then digestion slows down and is less efficient.
