Herbal Remedies for Addiction
An addiction is a physical or mental need for a substance, commonly alcohol, nicotine, or other drugs.
Herbalists often recommend blood-cleansing herbs to remove the addictive substances from the body quickly. Anti-addictive herbs include wild oats, skullcap, and sarsaparilla. Adding relaxing herbs, anti-anxiety herbs, digestive tonics, and adrenal support herbs to counteract stress can also make for a more effective herbal program for addiction.
