I was just reading a book on Ayurvedaic medicine and it speaks of how they help alcoholic thru the first days of stopping..They use GRAPES,any kind of grapes,lbs. and lbs. of grapes.The studies have shown that in a very short time the cravings go away.They say at least 2 weeks of grapes grapes and more grapes.They then say Dates are good for cravings as well as carrot juice..I think that there is great wisdom in that.

Woot! We're doing garden sharing on my street this week. My neighbor just delivered a nice bunch of grapes from their vines. I walked 2 lbs of tomatoes to a neighbor who lacks a garden. Here in Oregon we've had a cool summer, but warm September, and that's allowed us to finally get home grown stuff that's probably pretty normal for those who live in warm climates.
It's so amazing to taste "real grapes" rather than store ones. My neighbor's grapes are seedless and green, but taste just like those purple concord grapes I tasted when I was a kid.Comment

I wonder what is in the grapes that helps the cravings? I'm going to get some. The glut under my tongue gets a little yuck after a while!"Action is...the enemy of thought." :l Joseph ConradComment

I am wondering if it is the sugars in the grapes, dates and carrot juices that take away cravings? They are all pretty high in sugars. However, it is better than chocolate and icecream
