Has anyone tried Kudzu? There was a Harvard study indicating it cut consumption significantly over placebo. Read about it here:

For the time being, I am just letting TSM do its trick as it seems to be working. On the other hand, adding a supplement such as Kudzu should not cause any harm. My only problem adding something else is that it would be difficult to determine which treatment on its own was effective and which was not.

I also understand that you need to get the right formulation of the Kudzu extract as many of the Kudzu products at available at health stores do not have the same concentration as the Kudzu used in the Harvard study.

I tried kudzu a few years ago and didn't notice any difference. I don't know if I had the right kind of kudzu, though.

It is highly recommended at part as the overall regimen for the My Way Out program. they recommend up to 900mg 3 times a day to manage cravings

I liked kudzu and it helped some if I was dead set on moderate drinking. But if it was an all out night - nada.

Hi,

I tried it for a few months and didn't notice any reduction in my drinking.

I have just discovered TSM and I am currently using Kudzu. I have noticed that Kudzu helps me drink a bit slower during the week when I normally would have 6-7 units, I might now have 4-5. However on weekends, when I am binging I don't see that it helps at all.

I have order the TSM book and I am going to be in Mexico next week and will try to get some Nal at a pharmacy there without a prescription. If that doesn't work I will need to order some off the internet, but I really want to start ASAP. Does anyone know if it is possible to by NAL in Mexico without a script?

Thanks
