Does Diet Affect Alcoholism?

"Alcoholics are utterly dependent upon and regularly seek fast sources of sugar - alcohol being the fastest … the problem in alcoholism, in fact, really isn't alcohol per se, but severe carbohydrate addiction … 

Once cravings for carbohydrates and dependence on carbohydrates as the primary source of fuel are eliminated, so are the alcohol cravings. Training the body to depend upon ketones rather than sugar for fuel is key to this equation." - Nora Gedgaudas, author and board-certified nutritional consultant
