>may get unintended side effects. Oh, if one sees the enormity of complexity body & mind has - one can be sure he can not foresee all side effects. I like that you gave examples like caffeine which messes up your nervous system or alcohol which destroys your conscious attention and lever, among other things :)

They do work, though!

And I like how you passed up the other examples. Are you also advocating against medical drugs or vaccines? They fit the "hack your body" description to a tee.

  Vaccines are another great example, thanks!

  I used the ones which have clear undesirable side effects, others might have it as well just that we don't know about them. >Are you also advocating against medical drugs or vaccines? I am only advocating about being conscious of how much we don't know. If medical drug or vaccine saves lives - I have no problem with it, still most likely we don't know all the side effects.

Caffeine does not "mess up your nervous system"...
- mapcars 7y ago
  Sure? So you are saying if you drink coffee every day and then stop - there will be no side effects?

    Temporary withdrawals != permanent damage

      Well I also did not say it's permanent. Messing up can be temporal but it also builds up and becomes harder to get off. Temporal should not be taken lightly.
