Get the Priscilla mug."The simpler the molecule, the better the drug. So the best drug is oxygen. Only two atoms. The second-best, nitrous oxide - a mere three atoms. The third-best, ethanol - nine. Past that, you're talking lots of atoms." From Neal Stephenson's Zodiac.
There is a little further background to this. The more complicated the molecule, the more unpredictable it is. Therefore, drugs like Cannabis, heroin,etc, are out of the window because of the increased chances of those complex substances fucking up your body.
Play it safe. Keep to Sangamons Principle.

Get the Sangamon's Principle mug.The idea that if the consequences are unknown and may cause harm or negative consequences, it is best to avoid making that decision or to proceed with caution.
Since the effect of CO2 emissions on the climate is still unclear, it is best to use the precautionary principle.
