The 125 Clinical Trials from "The Cure for Alcoholism" by Dr Roy Eskapa

Key Takeaways

  • The Sinclair Method (TSM) is supported by extensive research, including 125 clinical trials cited in Dr Roy Eskapa's book, "The Cure for Alcoholism."

  • These trials demonstrate the effectiveness of Naltrexone in reducing alcohol consumption.

  • TSM involves taking Naltrexone before drinking, leading to pharmacological extinction of addiction.

  • This method offers a promising alternative to traditional abstinence-based treatments.
