ADDICTION: An addiction is a recurring compulsion by an individual to engage in some specific activity. The term is often reserved for drug addictions but it is sometimes applied to other compulsions, such as problem gambling, compulsive overeating, sex, pornography, computers, work, exercise, cutting, shopping, and religion. The medical community now makes a careful theoretical distinction between physical dependence (characterized by symptoms of withdrawal) and psychological dependence (or simply addiction). Addiction is now narrowly defined as "uncontrolled, compulsive use"; if there is no harm being suffered by, or damage done to, the patient or another party, then clinically it may be considered compulsive, but to the definition of some it is not categorized as "addiction". In practice, the two kinds of addiction are not always easy to distinguish. Addictions often have both physical and psychological components. When an addicted person is satisfying his/her craving, chemicals called endorphins are produced and released within the brain, reinforcing the individual's positive associations with their behavior.
Cravings are indicative of nutrient imbalances. Drugs deprive the body of its nutrients, often without a visible side effect until great damage has been done. The cumulative action of addictive drugs produces an increasing toxic condition which, in its final stages, completely overwhelms the ability of the liver to neutralize these poisons and dispose of them. It is of paramount importance to see that nutrition is improved to the utmost through adequate natural food intake and judicious use of natural, concentrated food supplements. Quite obviously, there must be a psychological approach to the treatment of addiction, but even with proper attention to emotional and psychotic involvement, no treatment will be entirely successful without intense Nutritional Therapy.
The following natural nutritional supplements are severely depleted by toxic substances. Their nutrients are all required for health maintenance and healing. They are very alkalizing and are highly absorptive by the body. You may order the following products from each product’s individual webpage. Or to place an order by phone, call 817 457-1232. Order hours are 8 AM - 4 PM CST Monday-Friday. For product questions concerning the following Nutritional Supplements, you may contact Aundrea Adams at Adams@DrAJAdams.com
For Detoxification:
Essiac Tonic Liquid Drops...Essiac is used to detox all vital organs, especially the liver and kidneys. Essiac is an herbal formula that is made up of 4 nutrient-rich herbs: Burdock root, sheep sorrel, slippery elm bark, and turkey rhubarb root. A healthy liver is absolutely essential for general good health, especially for a healthy immune system. In order to have a healthy immune system, you must detoxify your liver by cleansing it of stored toxins that accumulate over the years, resulting in a poor resistance to microbes, and culminate in various health disorders and diseases. This particular Essiac tonic is certified organic [contains no pesticides, herbicides or preservatives], non-fumigated, non-irradiated, and totally non-toxic. The herbs are freshly-ground minutes prior to cold-pressing to ensure potency. It is fast-acting, alcohol-free, and professional strength. Herb manufacturers who cannot make these claims are selling inferior, impotent and harmful products. This formula is the highest quality of Essiac formulas available anywhere on the U.S. market today.
Instructions: Take the Essiac Tonic Liquid Drops on an empty stomach. Add 40 drops to 2-4 ounces of water 3 times daily. Wait 30 minutes before eating [If you have already eaten, wait 2 hours]. The number of drops in a bottle of liquid extract will vary depending on the viscosity (thickness) of the extract and its molecular weight. A 2-ounce bottle may range from 2000 drops to 2500 drops. Therefore this 2-ounce bottle will last 17-21 days, taking 120 drops per day. Take it for 32 days and then take one week off. Repeat the cycle as needed.
Comprehensive Liquid Vitamins Minerals [Plant-Derived] Formula...Healing cannot occur without certain nutrients. This delicious liquid plant-derived supplement is superior in nutrients and absorption. The suggested adult dose is one ounce twice daily.
Calcium Magnesium Powder...Calcium and Magnesium are essential minerals for healing to occur. By far, the best calcium source and the best absorbed is Calcium gluconate, which is 90% vegetable, and is the purest injectable grade. When calcium is not properly absorbed, its deposits can lodge anywhere in the body and cause numerous diseases and disorders, including heart disease, arthritis and muscle disorders. The suggested adult dose for this delicious tasting supplement is one tsp twice daily.
Colloidal Silver 500ppm...Colloidal Silver is used to reduce inflammation and to promote healing of injured tissue, including liver tissue. Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics which destroy beneficial enzymes, Colloidal Silver leaves the tissue-cell enzymes intact. To this day, there has been no recorded case of adverse effects from Colloidal Silver when it is properly prepared. There also has been no recorded case of drug interaction with any other medication. Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics which destroy beneficial flora, Colloidal Silver leaves the flora as well as tissue-cell enzymes intact. The dose and effectiveness of Colloidal Silver depend strictly on the quality and ppm strength of it. This particular brand is the strongest potency and highest quality on the market
Flora Immune Probiotics [Dairy-Free]...A stabilized mixture of probiotics "friendly bacteria" which aids in
normalizing intestinal flora. Taken morning and night there is a restoration of natural intestinal flora which is destroyed by drug intake.
Aloe Vera [Aloe Immune]: Start out with 500 mg per day and work up to more, as tolerated. The aloe polymannans in Aloe Immune is as pure as it gets. The proprietary process of Aloe Immune delivers concentrated nutrients at a fraction of the cost due to the use of dehydrated powder rather than a freeze or spray dried powder, or diluted juice form. Aloe vera has been demonstrated to promote the growth of new and healthy cells, and reduce the overall microbial load within the body thereby revitalizing the body in its fight against disease. Aloe vera contains a number of chemicals that enhance the activities of all of the immune system functions. 23 Polypeptides serve as immune system stimulators, helping to control a broad spectrum of immune system diseases and disorders. 20 Polysaccharides increase the action of white blood cells thus increasing the production of "killer" T-cells and interferon. They also chemically enhance the action of the "killer" T-cells. One of these polysaccharides, acelated mannose, has been patented as acemannen and is approved in Europe to stimulate the immune system.
Also for detoxification, I strongly suggest the Aqua Chi Ionic Detoxification Foot Spa

FYI:
When taking large quantities of supplements, it is so very important to drink 2 ½ - 3 quarts of pure filtered water daily to offset any die-off symptoms. Die-off means that your cells have begun to release toxins, but they are floating around in your bloodstream. It takes pure water to effectively eliminate them thru the kidneys. When you do not drink enough water, the dead toxins die and accumulate in your bloodstream faster than you can flush them out. Die-off symptoms are flulike symptoms: aches, fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, headache, depression, drowsiness, lack of energy.
Toxic Substance that must be eliminated from diet and lifestyle:
For correcting any health disorder, taking the nutritional supplements is only 50% of the solution. The other 50% is much more difficult. It consists of eliminating toxic substances from your diet and lifestyle. These toxic substances increase inflammation, body acidity, candida, interfere with healing, as well as upset brain chemistry and hormone balance. These toxic substances include the following:
Avoid sugar because it contributes greatly to inflammation, body acidity, hormonal imbalance and candida. These include fruits, fruit juices [frozen, bottled, canned], cakes, candy, chewing gum, cookies, ice cream, jams, jelly, Jell-O, marmalades, pastries, pies, preserves, sherbets, soft drinks, sugared fruit, tapioca puddings, white sugar, syrup, processed commercial yogurt, brown sugar, fructose sugar, corn syrup, soft drinks, honey, dehydrated cane juice granules, barley malt syrup, brown rice syrup, date sugar, maple syrup, sucanat, sorghum, and most of all Splenda and Aspartame [NutriSweeet] and Alcoholic Beverages [beer, wine and hard liquor all turn to sugar in the blood]...Xylitol And Stevia are 2 very healthy natural sweeteners that are perfectly OK to use. Also unsulfured blackstrap molasses is OK.
Avoid dairy products [butter, cheese, milk, sour cream, whey, whipped cream, yogurt] because they contribute greatly to the spread of inflammation and body acidity...Good substitutes are raw goat milk, organic brown rice milk and nut milk.
Avoid white flour products because they contribute greatly to increased inflammation, body acidity, hormonal imbalance. These include cakes, pies, cookies, pastries, donuts, breads, crackers, rolls, biscuits, muffins, pancakes, pizzas, gravy, processed pasta [spaghetti, macaroni, ravioli, lasagna, noodles, dumplings]... Instead Use Whole-Grain Flour [Wheat, Brown Rice, Oat, Barley, etc]
Avoid processed table salt. It disrupts the body's normal pH, brain chemistry, hormonal balance, muscle function, and fluid levels. Use organic sea salt instead.
Avoid Processed Meats with toxic preservatives such as nitrates and nitrites [wieners, bologna, salami, pastrami, corned beef, bacon, ham, sausage, hot links]. They increase inflammation and body acidity.
Avoid ingesting chemicals such as nicotine, tobacco, pesticides, herbicides, preservatives, processed foods, pre-packaged foods, refined foods, and tap water because they contribute to liver toxicity and free radical damage. Synthetic chemical and substances cause cellular havoc in an attempt to digest them. The body can only safely digest natural whole foods.
Instead, eat lots of vegetables and fresh vegetable juices, whole grains, and meats only in moderation. Use organic if possible, or you may request suggestions on how to detox your own foods. Also drink 3 quarts of pure filtered water daily [EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR PREVENTING LIVER SLUGGISHNESS AND DEHYDRATION] and sleep at least 8 hours each night.
