Answers: what does it do to their system that makes them like it ?
Orange juice is almost pure sugar. Heroin addicts develop a need for intense sweetness.
The citric acid gives the kick.
It's used to "clean" heroin of impurities.
Heroin addicts get a kick out of drinking orange juice if it is mixed with Methadone. Methadone is a synthetic narcotic that is used as a treatment for Heroine addiction. It is an oral liquid that is mixed with orange juice.
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE FEEL-GOOD COMBINATION OF VITAMINS IN ORANGE JUICE RELEASE ENDORPHINS FOR A NATURAL HIGH.
WHO DOESN'T GET A KICK OUT OF DRINKING SOME GOOD OL' FASHIONED O.J.?
orange juice contains anti-oxidants such as vitamin C. these anti-oxidants can prolong the effects of heroin by slowing the metabolism of the drug by the body.
I think heroin depletes their body of vitamin C and it is just a natural craving for what they need.
