Re: Desperately seeking recovery "buddy" in return for same


Hi 712129,

I know how you feel.
I am a nutritional psychologist and see addiction to be a physical disease, affecting one's metabolism. I treat drug addiction with a combination of nutrition and psychotherapy. The whole program is set out in my book "Getting off the Hook". This is available free of charge on the internet. (Google book search.) This includes the treatment of allergies. You can be addicted to allergies, because allergies can act as stimulants that increase blood Sugar levels. This makes you feel good. The increased blood Sugar levels in the brain is usually followed by a sudden drop in blood Sugar levels making you crave for the allergy again. The brain depends entirely on proper blood sugar levels as its only source of energy. That energy is required for the production of feel good neurotransmitters such as serotonin.

I can only write in terms of generalities or principles, explaining addiction.

Most addicts are found to be hypoglycemic according to a special medical test as described at our web site.

Medical Test for Hypoglycemia at:

http://www.hypoglycemia.asn.au/articles/testing_hypoglycemia.html


This means that an addicted person has problem metabolizing sugars (found in food) into biological energy called ATP. That energy is necessary in the production of feel good neurotransmitters.

Thus the first step in treatment of addiction is 1) withdraw from the drugs of addiction, preferably under the supervision of a doctor, 2) adopt the hypoglycemic diet, 3) if any problems arises investigate allergies and food sensitivities , 4) do a course in psychotherapy.
