The plants help you to gather strength and maintain a positive attitude to leave behind toxic habits, as well as to reduce their consequences.

Kuzu, effective to fight alcoholism

The root of kuzu (Pueraria montana) has shown great efficacy to act on dopamine, a neurotransmitter related to pleasure and key in addictions. Therefore it is used in alcoholism and cocaine addiction.

At the same time it favors the regeneration and detoxification of the liver.

The kuzu is taken in decoction (5 min, 2 cts per cup) or in extract. And you can combine it with valerian to reduce anxiety.

Wakame, a great support that purifies

Another good help is the wakame seaweed (Undaria pinnatifida), which combines two very necessary virtues: it acts on the nervous system reassuring and promotes hepatorenal purification.

It has been indicated as support in natural therapies to help disengage from alcohol.

The whole seaweed is used, fresh or rehidated. Add it to your dishes, or take it in deccoción, extract or capsules.

Liquorice to stop smoking

Due to its detoxifying effect, herbalists recommend milk thistle, chicory and dandelion. But above all advise smokers licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), which contains compounds such as glycyrrhizin with detoxifying effects because it affects the receptors of serotonin, which fights anxiety.

It works because it causes an unpleasant sensation when smoking and neutralizes nicotine.

You can chew the licorice root or take it in decoction, timnture or extract.
