Barbara,
You might want to have a look at a book called "Seven Weeks to Sobriety" by Dr. Joan Mathews Larson. Dr. Mathews Larson is (was) director of a nutritionally oriented alcoholism-treatment centre in Minneapolis. She developed and used a technique that quickly eliminated her alcoholic clients' cravings. The technique involved the use of specific amino acids that could rapidly feed the addicted brain exactly the type of protein that it needed to naturally fill up its empty mood-chemical sites.
