Is Alcohol a Drug?

In this video, Bobby Wiggins, Narconon Drug Prevention Specialist, explains concisely why is alcohol a drug.
The question is:
Alcohol isn't a drug, true or false?
False.
Like any other drug it is poisonous to the body in a large volume. And like other drugs, alcohol uses up vitamins in your body.

so is being drunk a type of high?

[@Chosenbarly]

Yes it actually is a type of high its just labeled differently as drunk because you're drinking something to get the high.

[@morphbal1234]

Alcohol is the worst drug

[@OfficialDuckFilms]

I swear to drunk i'm not God...

[@henkjan7263]

i cant draw the same line's when using nothing. everyday your line drops lower and lower and you gonna hate your self cuz you never feel amazed.

[@vtecivicsib18]

I agree, I think drugs like heroin are more addictive n dangerous but alcohol can be purchased almost anywhere and dosnt cost much at all

[@SafeBuster80]

Your videos are simple and easy to understand.

[@PURPLE.REIGN.1999]

Definitely yes.

[@Pigeonfox]

Actually, caffeine is the most widely used drug...

[@GreenTea4101]

alcohol is the most dangerous drug in the world to be addicted to... like to be an alcoholic that drinks every single day..

[@rovimeldodeocampo3876]

In my point of view, a little alcohol wont hurt you.. as long as you wont get addicted.. There's a lot of successful and outstanding persons who actually taking alcohol frequently specially during winter..

[@Inpersona64]

@kaitlingoff not true, alcohol is more frequently used than caffeine. There are people who drink in the morning and at night; whereas caffeine is mostly used in the morning. You don't see too many, if at all, people drinking coffee at the dinner table.
Besides that, this video really opened my eyes a bit. I only came here because a favorite youtube personality of mines said that "alcohol is a drug". Never associated alcohol with the term drug before. So i guess its safe to say I DONT DO DRUGS.

[@bulbasaur90]

I drink but I don't want to get drunk, just sleepy and sleep well.

[@Alexeht91]

yeah I believe that guy means drug as narcotics and alcohol is one of them. I've seen a lot of bad things caused because of people being drunk, a lot more than people on LSD.

[@LastCamPlease]

@M200CrazyCriz Alcohol. Don't even need to compare. Marijuana should be legal alcohol should be illegal.

[@iownudie108]

man i remember i had sore feet and i accidently took 2 pills of aspirin ,fuck, and im only 13-you wouldn't belive how shit i felt the rest of the day. At first i felt like throwing up, then tired and dizzy, finnaly i slept for 6 hours, and still felt like throwing up...

[@Pigeonfox]

Soda and tea have caffeine in them too, not just coffee.

[@SIsForSteppi]

Well i don't think you can say, what Drugs do. Often I go to concerts and drink alcohol...when I come down (not drunk anymore), I still feelo happy and my body is still alright...even on the next day i sometimes feel very good.

[@warifamily]

yes

[@EvilMunchies]

first 10 seconds he gets his facts wrong, caffeine is the most used drug in the states.

[@Angieamster]

I used to drink alcohol when I was a teenager and it almost took me to the hospital one day. I got so intoxicated that I could not walk. Today I don't drink at all and have no problem with peer pressure.

[@MultiFujimoto]

@mmjmobile like a bottle of pinacolada or sangria? I think he missed one thing that the alcohol dilutes the fat on the nerves on long-term that would protect against harmful impacts .

[@inUR2teeth]

so to resume: shhhhhh shhhhhh ............. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[@flightestman]

i now going to watch cocaine to see if he using the same graph

[@xSaphiredust]

My question is...you lose these nutrients, but does that mean it's safe if you take more nutrient supplements than you do the actual drug?

[@zedjadark94]

Yeah I agree a lot more coffee and caffeinated sodas are drunk than beer is I should hope.

[@art4med]

Graphs could better be curved, and lowered energy dramaticized.

[@flightestman]

Yeah cause you get a buzz from it you don't really buzz from weed like booze does.

[@retrogazele]

Alcohol is a poison not a drug...

[@machetero1]

>Same diagram as the marijuana video, derp.

[@benchpressme]

2:25 TRUE!

[@ImKoolWithThis]

@SOCKvideos What he says here is true but the bs part is when he says weed fucks with your magnesium.

[@Sick76Pack]

Fly with YOur ears to prove that YOU are NOT a LIAR. IN the free world, even fslse propaganda is a crime against humanity

[@flightestman]

Stress??? here we go again that the same graph as the weed one. Never heard of that happening before. boy he i just going after all the drugs. the only different form the weed one was the was one was B1 and the other one was potassium. Same darn graph and same thing effect i think he retuarded and got a degree in counseling.

[@mmjmobile]

So the lesson is to take B1, C, and B complex and you can drink as much as you want.

[@M200CrazyCriz]

what is worse for you, weed or alchohol?

[@romeox600]

best

[@ieatpaint1029]

lolwut

[@Freepepsi42]

well, compared to smoking. I takes an hour for your liver to heal from a single beer compared to 15 years for your lungs to heal from a single cigg/joint/whatever you smoke.

[@TheYattway]

Alcohol is the most widely used drug in the WORLD not just America.

[@ElJory15]

This dude acts like you cant replenish the vitamins you lost

[@thefoxdude]

praying isn't even fun XD

[@dianelap67]
