Drugs are bad for you due to their addictive properties as well as the way in which they can destroy lives. Obviously, there are a number of different types of drugs out there for you to choose from, but it then opens up the question as to which drug is the most widely used in the world today?
The answer is far easier than your mind was probably allowing you to consider, as the actual answer is caffeine, which is streets ahead of alcohol in second place and nicotine in third. Of course, this is because of our reliance on not only coffee but also sodas that have a tendency to contain so much caffeine pushed into them that they too have their very own addictive properties.
It wasn’t always like this. There was a time when nicotine was higher up the list, and caffeine was certainly not as popular as it is today. To be honest, we can blame the likes of the big-name coffee chains for the way that things have turned out alongside just one or two beverage companies that have dominated the world with their addictive caffeine-based drinks.
