Hi. My father is very big drunk addict n we are seriously worried about him. and he is not ready to stop this at all. We gave him several medicines but nothing worked at all. Please tell me about what to do for his addiction we are seriously concerned!! I would go for some natural remedies.Replied By Nela (Vancouver, Washington) on 07/06/2015
How much of each did you put in the mix?Replied By Grandmah (Minnesota) on 08/04/2015
Agreed! I'm helping my daughter get off the hard stuff. She said she misses the "burn" you get in the throat so I suggested the ACV. I gave her a shot of ACV last night and she said it relaxed her and gave her the "burn". We will continue on this path and see what happens....Replied By John (Ontario) on 08/31/2015
Actually, the 'story' this guy told about his 'neighbor' may have been initially true but it is one of those circulating urban tales. I won't say it's an urban 'myth' but I have read almost identical stories on the web many times before with slight changes, ie: My neighbor was a pilot that had to quit drinking and used to drop by for a drink after work so one day gave have him ACV instead without him knowing and he didn't notice and was amazed when I told him what it was ... etc, etc, .
That said, I think ACV does work but people should just tell real stories and not resort to these sort of chain-letter email lies.

You know, actually... when I stopped drinking beer, the first time, I substituted with ACV and baking soda... fizzy and it actually tasted a bit like beer to me and became my new ritual. Lasted a little more than a month, but like smoking, I gave myself permission to have a beer after work and it became my once again newer ritual.
However, about to start drinking ACV and baking soda again. ;)

Try L-glutamine, vitamin c, kudzu, lobelia, amino acids. Read The Vitamin Cure for Alcoholism.Replied By Gwen (Colorado) on 02/01/2017
Look up the Sinclair method. There are videos at youtube. Naltrexone is the medication. It can be bought on internet. It is saving lives! God Bless, Good Luck!Replied By Jocelyn (Canada) on 12/28/2018
This story is bogus. No aficionado of alcohol would swallow ACV thinking it was alcohol.
EC: Not a bogus story. Alfred posted on Earth Clinic for years!

I Totally agree real deep Drinkers would not just take ACV and say oh we're good.. we want to get drunk not have a similar tasting thing at all.. It's Totally BS to think ACV helps stop drinking alone.
THOUGH!! Once someone is already accepting to detox it can save lives it helps a lot to detox and restabilize the blood, reduce the anxiety, jitters and burning sensation that one can get while going through heavy detox, there's tons of reasons and ways it helps to cleanse and stabilize but it's not a replacement for alcohol that's not the same department at all

I have basically not missed a night of drinking alcohol in the last 15 years. I began 3 days ago substituting my vodka/water/lemon slice for ACV/orange juice, and it's true it does work very well. I don't think I could actually deal with these cravings without it.
