Potatoes not Prozac, by DesMaisons

I guess this is an old topic, but I'll respond anyway. I read this book years ago. I don't remember if I was trying to quit drinking or just trying to stabilize my then undiagnosed ADHD.

I do remember it was helpful at least as far as being aware of different foods effect you. I also remember one time when I was AF, and eating a lot of homemade Christmas candy on an empty stomach, and I swear I got a buzz- very close to what an alcohol buzz feels like.

I do recommend checking this book out.

As a side note, one reason (of many) I like this site is that the holistic and nutritional approach are emphasized.

Ironically (or not) my father was an an alcoholic and my mother a self taught natural healer of sorts.
