Addiction
What is the Root Cause of Addiction?
Drugs are not the root cause of addiction. In fact, a large longitudinal study put out by the US Department of Health and Human Services showed that conclusively.
How is Just Be Well different?
First, we know that addiction is a brain disease not a moral failing or character flaw.
Most clinics focus on one therapy. For addiction that is generally counselling of some kind. Some clinics use Ketamine. Others use NAD+. Occasionally a clinic will use Myers IV. A few will use Brain mapping and EEG biofeedback.
Addiction Treatment
Addiction is the body’s physical and/or psychological addiction to a psychoactive (mind altering) substance. The list of addictive substances is all but limitless, but include food, tobacco (nicotine), alcohol, opioids (narcotics), stimulants, sedatives, benzodiazepines, cocaine, and many others. Other things can be addictive as well, gambling and sex to name two.
Tobacco Addiction
Conventional smoking cessation programs just do not work. About 55 percent of smokers try to quite each year, only about 7 percent are successful for 6 months or more.
We do things differently.
Mental Health issues have been shown to be energy deficit, oxidative stress, and immune upregulation in the brain.
Patient Testimonials
“Thank you so much for the wonderful care you have provided me for so many years, which has truly changed my life and health in a wonderful way. You and your staff have always been so kind, respectful, good listeners and professional.”
JANINE, PATIENT
Button“In 2011 Jerry came to you for help, unable to walk more than a few yards due to physical limitations and cognitive impairment. Thanks to you and your care, he is healthy, and functioning normally now, holding down a job in his field of expertise, living life to the fullest. You gave us hope when his doctors had sent Jerry home with no hope. You gave Jerry tools to heal when we didn't know what to do. You gave a listening ear and believed the symptoms were not just a depressed state. We will be forever grateful to you”.
CHARLENE, PATIENT
Button“Once I started reading Just Be Well, I had a hard time putting it down. This is one of the most thoughtfully written non-fiction books by a doctor-writer that I have read in a long time. It is filled with fascinating stories that have changed the way I think about the practice of medicine. Sult clearly connects with his patients and writes from the heart, with a sharp eye for the art of being a physician. He has wisdom and a clarity that remind me of Atul Gawande.”
