Book Review: Seven Weeks to Sobriety Miracle Program
Summary: 5 Stars
This book has been a life saver for my son who is an alcoholic. He has been in rehab twice but each time he started drinking again. He was drinking approximately 40 beers a day when I realized he was in such bad shape. He tried 30 days in rehab and AA. Neither seemed to work as much as following the program outlined in this book. We are on our third week of the seven weeks to Sobriety. He takes his vitamins and minerals faithfully. He even told his counselor and other alcoholics about the program. He said the steps outlined in this book have actually helped with his alcohol cravings more than anything else he has tried. The doctor told him last year if he did not quit drinking so much that he would be dead by the time he reached his thirties. He is 28 years old. I finally feel like for the first time in years that we have made some progress. In fact, he's moving back home and I will continue to keep him on the program. I thank God everyday for allowing me to find something that would finally help him. I died a little each day myself watching him suffer.

Summary of Seven Weeks to Sobriety: The Proven Program to Fight Alcoholism through Nutrition
"Comprehensive, rational and personal. It suppplies much of what is missing in traditional approaches to alcoholic rehabilitation. I believe that this book can save lives."Leo Galland, M.D.
Open this book and you will embark on a groundbreaking seven-week journey that will change your life. You will learn how to break your addiction to alcohol and end your cravings--and do it under your own power. Here, step-by-step, is a proven, seven-week program developed by Dr. Joan Matthews Larson at the innovative Health Recovery Center in Minneapolis, that subdues your body's addictive chemistry and puts you on the path to full recovery.
In recent decades, many of those studying alcoholism have come to see it as a disease, rather than as a character flaw or a failure of will. And yet, alcoholism is most often treated through counseling. Joan Mathews Larson and her colleagues at the Health Recovery Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, discovered a series of nutritional deficiencies in alcoholics, and found that with proper dietary adjustments, they could help almost three-quarters of their patients kick the bottle for good. Seven Weeks to Sobriety is the updated version of the less interestingly titled Alcoholism--The Biochemical Connection, which was published in 1992.
