Home Remedies for Alcoholism

Tip 1:

First and foremost the person should be willing to give up alcohol. Sadly, but very true that the only way to do it is, to make a clean break. 

Tip 2:

Apples- eating as many Apples as possible at regular intervals, reduces the craving for alcohol. They also help to clear the toxins from the system. 

Tip 3:

Grapes-This fruit contains a pure form of alcohol. A person wanting to give up this habit should have a meal of grapes every 4-5 hours, for a month at least.

Tip 4:

The juice of Bitter gourd leaves is very good for clearing intoxication. 3 tspns of juice mixed in a glass of buttermilk is very good as it helps to heal the damaged liver also.

I have an addicted brother.He's elder to me and we both live in Uganda.Its hard to talk to him since he's senior,everyone else seems to be waiting to rejoice at his death as he terrorises family property.The mentioned fruits are scarce therefore too expensive for a month's consumption in spaces of 4 to 5 hours daily.What can i do to help?
