"If anyone you know is struggling with addiction-or if you think
you might have a problem-you want to read this book."-GARTH STEIN,
bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain "a proven,
comprehensive program that compassionately guides the reader to a
place of resolution"-DAVID PERLMUTTER, MD, #1 New York Times
bestselling author of Grain Brain, and, Brain Maker "a massive
achievement and a giant step forward for addiction medicine"-ANNIE
GRACE, author of This Naked Mind Drug overdose is now the leading
cause of death for Americans under fifty. Even as opiate addiction
skyrockets, more people than ever before are hooked on alcohol,
sedatives, cigarettes, and even screens. The face and prevalence of
addiction has changed and evolved, but our solutions to addiction
are stuck in the past. We've been treating addiction as a black or
white issue, a disease you either suffer from or will never suffer
from. The problem with this model is that it doesn't account for
the incredible forces working against all of us, pushing all of us
toward addiction: stress, undernourishment, sleep-deprivation,
vitamin D deficiency, and isolation, not to mention a flawed
medical system and corrupt pharmaceutical companies doling out
prescriptions at every turn. The truth: Addiction is a disease
that, like many others, exists on a spectrum. We are more
vulnerable to becoming addicted to substances at certain points in
our lives and based on the evidence provided in The Addiction
Spectrum, most effective at kicking addiction when we take a
holistic approach. With the help of the 13-point plan and
individual protocols detailed in this book, you have the power to
change your destiny. No one understands this more than Dr. Paul
Thomas, who recovered from alcohol addiction early in his career
and founded one of the most effective rehabilitation centers for
teens and young adults in his hometown of Portland, OR. Named one
of the top family doctors and one of the top pediatricians in the
country, Dr. Paul is also board-certified in both integrative
medicine and addiction medicine. This unique combination of
specialties is intentional: Dr. Paul has devoted his entire life
and career to saving lives. Using the best conventional medicine
alongside the new science of alternative health, Dr. Paul has
treated thousands of patients with the life-saving solutions
provided in The Addiction Spectrum. Addiction is a compendium of
often devastating circumstances that have gone unchecked by society
for far too long. This book is a positive light and guide to
overcoming not only addiction but the challenges and obstacles that
affect us all.
