When I quit drinking I bought a book called "7 weeks to sobriety".
The book talks extensively about vitamin deficiency causing cravings.
I invested a pretty good chunk of time and money trying to get the vitamins in the book. Niacin, Glutamine,Ester C vitamin C were just a few. Some could not be purchased over the counter,and I skipped those.
The lady that wrote the book was head of ,or ran a rehab place. She claimed way better results than AA. Her son committed suicide from mood swings from alcohol,or hypoglycemia . From then on she set out to help alcoholics.

I had tried many times in the past to quit and failed. After following the book,I succeeded. I have no idea to this day why or how I made it last time. But I often wonder if taking the vitamins in that book didn't play a big part. I have now been sober over 4 and1/2 years.
