Bee Pollen for Sobriety??

So this claim of Bee Pollen caught my eye:

4) Bee pollen reduces the craving for alcohol and street drugs and other addictions.
Anyone believe this? Sounds too easy but food for thought

I was actually looking for some other remedy for my ADD since I'm not really on board with taking Ritalin but I do need something... I've already tried the other non-stimulant prescriptions.

I dunno about bee pollen, but I love your subtitle--doing taxes sober. Who would have thought? LOL

I don't know that it can hurt unless you are allergic.

I'm not going to give medical advice but I know I personally feel better when I take all my vitamins, my body is less run down and that makes me able to continue the message and continue on in my sobriety.

Absolutely. Sobriety is not a pill... Sobriety is how we live. I just found the claim to be "optimistic."

But who am I to judge. Some things in nature really are great

Bee Pollen is a cure all for everything, has been around forever and does have many medicinal properties. It is high in protein and antioxidants and many different vitamins. It is also beneficial to your immune system to help eliminate allergies.
It has been said it can correct body chemistry BUT I'm sure if a person doesn't want to quit...my guess is bee pollen isn't going to help.
If you incorporate it into your daily healthy ritual I'm sure it can be a great healthy tool but I highly doubt it will reduce cravings alone.
