Breaking Free: Amino Acid Therapy for Addiction Recovery

Welcome and in this video Dr. Petersen of Forum Health shares how amino acid therapy can be used to combat pornography addictions. Addiction is a chronic, relapsing disorder that causes people to want and use drugs even though they know it's terrible for them. It is considered a brain disorder because it affects how brain circuits that deal with reward, stress, and self-control work. For example, Abusing drugs or alcohol changes the way nerves in the brain work, so you need more and more of the substance to feel the same amount of pleasure or happiness. When a person stops using a substance, the brain loses neurotransmitters like dopamine, GABA, serotonin, and endorphins. This is what causes the intense cravings that come with withdrawal. When someone indulges in an addiction for a long time, his or her brain chemicals change significantly. Chemical changes like these can cause serious health problems. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to treating addiction. Each person will show signs that are different from the others, and they will need different treatments to deal with the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of addiction. You can give your body the building blocks for a successful recovery with amino acid therapy.
