Based upon experience and scientific research it is now known that substance problems are the result of biochemical imbalances that disrupt the normal workings of brain cells.   Many addictions treatment professionals have long believed that substance-use problems are caused only by emotional and psychological factors, and not by biochemical disruptions. Scientific research has shown that substance cravings, mood swings, sleep problems and dysfunctional behavior are also driven by biochemical imbalances that disrupt the production of neurotransmitters.  Imbalances can result when our brains are unable to get the nutrients they need to produce adequate amounts of neurotransmitters.

 

The Power Recovery Program™ helps to address these imbalances. The nutrient PAKs help to restore neurotransmitter production by supplying the brain with the raw materials it needs to rebalance its biochemistry. In other words, a critical and often overlooked component in recovering from compulsive substance use is the rebalancing of brain chemistry.

 

In light of this newly confirmed information, recovery is no longer simply the removal of drug or alcohol residues from the body of a substance abuser.  And it does not consist only of a psychological or spiritual transformation, although these are important aspects of recovery too.  Recovery requires the re-establishment of normal brain chemistry that may have become disrupted through prolonged use of one or more toxic substances, including alcohol, drugs and cigarettes; by toxins in the environment; by prescription psychotropic drugs; by physical or emotional stress; by nutritional deficiencies; or because of a genetic predisposition.
