Re: Please read or google, this is cured by B6 and zinc!

Gina, I agree 100% with you,

I also agree 100% with Dro.

You are correct in stating that B6 & Zink are not pharmaceuticals. They are not. In fact in the detox I take a meeting into, B12 is standard issue for every fresh drunk that shows up. We do deplete these things and thiamin as well. Balanced nutrition is an often overlooked aspect of recovery. As far as you take it, you are 100% right.

But Drofinnah is also 100% correct as well. As a recovering alcoholic, I could take vitamin B6, B12 Zink, Thiamin or any other combination until the cows come home and that alone will not fix me.

We may indeed be suffering from malnutrition, vitamin deficiencies and general poor physical health, but mostly what we suffer from is a spiritual disease. The obsession to get and stay loaded is far more powerful than any vitamin or pharmaceutical for that matter that I ever met. Chemistry alone, no matter what type can not remove that obsession. It seems only a God of our understanding can do that.

I do not argue that Pyroluria may be cured by said vitamins, but we aren’t working on Pyroluria, we are working on alcoholism. And that disease seems to only be responsive to a spiritual remedy.
