The co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, Bill W., fortunately for him and the entire AA movement,  accepted niacin megavitamin therapy for treating his alcoholism-related depression and had amazing results. Trials substantiated their findings. Dr. Hoffer early recognized the impact of hypoglycemia (a backlash from a large sugar intake calling too much insulin into play) and how it dovetailed in with nutritional deficiencies. These factors create the foundation for addiction and were made worse by the drinking itself. They considered nutrition factors to augment, not replace, the basics of AA including considering the spiritual side of a troubled client.
