Book ID/图书代码： 04122012B58487
English Summary/英文概要： Book 1 in The Vitamin Cure Series
Most people_s diets are woefully inadequate for providing proper nutrition. Even good diets fail to deliver sufficient levels of nutrients. The Vitamin Cure book series highlights the safe and clinically effective use of vitamin supplements for a variety of illnesses. Research continues to prove the immense value of vitamins for maintaining health and fighting disease. The Vitamin Cure books, written by authors who are recognized experts in their field, offer authoritative, up-to-date, and practical information on taking vitamins for particular health problems.
The Vitamin Cure for Alcoholism can help those who suffer from alcohol addiction, their friends and loved ones, and those in the relevant helping professions. Its central message is that alcoholism is primarily a metabolic disease that should be treated nutritionally first. The person called an _alcoholic_ suffers from nutrient deficiency, especially vitamin B3, and seeks relief by consuming alcohol. Megavitamin therapy is not only more effective than drugs or counseling, it is cheaper and safer. Behavioral and psychological treatment approaches have lacked long-term success, largely because they pay little attention to the nutritional needs of alcoholics. In fact, Bill W., the man who cofounded Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), promoted the concept of megavitamin therapy.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 维生素治疗酒精中毒可以帮助那些‘酒鬼’们和从事相关酒类产业的人们摆脱对酒精的成瘾痛苦。 其中心思想就是酒精中毒应该首先治疗营养代谢性疾病。 这些被人们称为“酗酒者”的酒徒们主要都患有营养缺乏，特别是维生素B3情况，这些人需要通过消耗酒精寻找到内心的慰藉。 维他命疗法不仅比药物或心理仔细更见成效，而且还更为安全且成本亲民。 行为和心理治疗方法只能在短期内获得成功，主要原因是他们忽略了酗酒者的营养缺乏的问题。实际上，共同成立了匿名戒酒互助会(AA)的比尔W.，便是维生素疗法理念的推动者。 营养可能治愈酒瘾。(Sandy)
Awards/获奖情况：This is a small, easy-to-read book on treating alcoholism with vitamins. The premise is that alcoholism is a metabolic disorder, in which the patient uses alcohol to cope. The authers draw the parallel between alcoholics using alcohol to treat their condition, and diabetics using insulin to treat theirs.
The cure lies in getting the disorder back into balance through high qualitiy nutrition (from food), and additional nutrients from mega doses of vitamins. The book discusses what sugar does and why it is one of the worst things for alcoholics. It also points out that alcoholics take in most of their calories from drinking. While alcohol is busy depleting the body of essential nutrients, the normal nutrition one gets from food is not going in. This creates a severe vitamin deficiency, which causes the dependency.
The most valuable part of the book is that it tells which vitamins help with cravings, and the "DT’s." It discusses how critical and dangerous detoxification can be, and how the vitamins -- especially niacin (as nicotinic acid) and the other B vitamins (e.g., B1 and B6) are the cure for this debilitating, and often, heartbreaking condition.
