Alcohol
Condition: Alcohol damages the blood and liver, creating various Pitta imbalances. Alcohol is also a Sugar and may in part be a substitute for Sugar addiction.

Therapies : Aloe Vera gel is the best herb for balancing liver function. Gotu Kola is the best herb for detoxifying the brain tissue and reducing disturbed emotions from the liver. Bitter herbs like Barberry, Katuka, Gentian and Manjistha cleanse the liver (emotions) and blood. Bupleurum is similar and reduces the emotional factors behind addictions as well. Skullcap calms addictions and cleanses the liver. Other cooling nervines include Passion flower, Betony and Hops. These herbs remove the withdrawal symptoms from alcohol, greatly reducing or eliminating the suffering that appears during recovery.

Vayu- Herbal wines substitute for alcohol and help reduce dependency. Some herbs to use include, Licorice, Bala, Turmeric, Barberry and Gotu Kola.
Pitta- Cooling nervines and bitter tonic herbs like for Vayu, only substitute Burdock for Licorice.
Kapha- Herbal wines, bitter tonics are the same as above, only substitute dry Ginger for Burdock and Licorice.
