With GenRecovery we bring the missing piece to reduce the cravings for long term recovery.. The approach we use brings the time tested components of residential treatment, therapy, and 12-Step programs together with our anti-craving treatment to add the missing piece for many addicts..  When people are on a down ward spiral of addiction they need more than just education and removal from the environment.  It often takes a bioactive food supplement to neutralize genetic deficiencies.

Drug use changes your brain chemistry

Alcohol and other drugs affect the brains natural production and use of reward chemicals, such as dopamine. Addiction occurs as alcohol or drug use overrides the brains normal mechanisms for self regulation. Changes in brain chemistry resulting from alcohol and other drugs play an important role in the physical and behavioral symptoms of substance dependence, including tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, cravings and relapse. The ingredients in GenRecovery have been shown to reduce the cravings that fuel alcohol and drug addiction in some individuals. This is significant because individuals who are relieved of the physiological symptoms of their addiction, such as cravings and anxiety, are better able to respond to the traditional psychosocial therapy methods that are used in substance abuse treatment.

How Dependence Changes the Brain

Changes in brain chemistry resulting from alcohol and other drugs play an important role in the physical and behavioral symptoms of substance dependence: tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, craving, and relapse. Over time, the brain becomes increasingly dependent on receiving the neurotransmitters from alcohol and other drugs and thereby reducing the body’s efficiency to produce neurotransmitters on its own. Our unique biochemical approach in connection with proven evidence-based treatment increases the success rate of recovery. A person addicted to alcohol, cocaine or methamphetamines (meth) that is freed from the physiological symptoms of their addiction (such as cravings and anxiety) may be able to attain greater success with traditional psychosocial therapy.
To understand the physical basis of substance dependence, it may be helpful to compare it to another disease; type 2 diabetes. Like diabetes, substance dependence is a physical disease with a behavioral component. Like diabetes, there is no cure, but the disease can be successfully managed. And like diabetes, successful management may require both treatment and changes in behavior. The GenRecovery treatment plan is designed to target the underlying biology of substance dependence and the social environment, which are the first steps in managing the disease of substance dependence.
