without prescriptions."An estimated 14.7 percent of Americans ages
21 to 34 have taken tranquilizers without a prescription or even recreationally,
according to 2012 data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration. Meanwhile, the number of ER visits from people misusing
or abusing alprazolam skyrocketed 172 percent from 2004 to 2011, the most
recent federal statistics available.Related: Secrets To Firing Up Your MetabolismThe
drug can be particularly dangerous when taken in combination with other
substances."If you mix a benzo with another drug that subdues your nervous
systempainkillers, alcohol, antihistaminesthe effects can be dangerous or
deadly," Reinhold said. "Remember Heath Ledger?"Even when used as prescribed,
Xanax can become habit-forming, Birndorf said."As your body acclimates to
it, you could end up needing more of it, and sooner, to
get the same response."If that happens and you abruptly stop taking the
drug, you might go into withdrawal. This can lead to muscle twitches,
depression, anxiety and, in its severest form, seizures. Says Dr. Stuart
Gitlow, an addiction psychiatrist and president of the American Society
of Addiction Medicine, "Withdrawal from benzos can be more dangerous than
withdrawal from heroin."Those risks are very real for women; an estimated

are one of the few creatures on this planet who have the
capability of ignoring our basic survival instinct. We jump out of perfectly
good airplanes something that still sets off alarms in the most
veteran skydivers and we push ourselves to the edge of death
and back with physical demands on our bodies that defy reason with
activities like ultra-marathons in the desert, living in microgravity, and
setting the world record for holding ones breath under water.Yet as contradictory
as it sounds, testing these limits is probably what makes us feel
the most human or the most attuned to nature and our own
potential particularly when it comes to soaring above the skies, jumping
eight feet in the air and eating the most bizarre, even dangerous,
dishes set in front of us on the dinner table.What are some
of the deadliest foods the world has ever seen? Poisonous or harmful
by design, not accident, and something that has us questioning our sanity
when we choose to take a bite?iStockLike apples, cherry pits contain a
type of hydrogen cyanide called prussic acid. Don't go eating a cup
of ground pits, or peach and apricot pits for that matter.iStockRhubarb
leaves contain oxalic acid, which causes kidney stones. It'll take 11 pounds
of leaves to be fatal, but much less to make you seriously
