0:38 What is NAD?
0:57 Benefits of niacin
1:38 What to do about NAD deficiency
2:12 Addiction’s effect on NAD and energy
2:32 Symptoms of NAD deficiency
3:57 Is it advisable to supplement with NAD or NADH?
4:12 Other ways to increase NAD naturally
Addiction to substances like nicotine, alcohol, and drugs can be incredibly difficult to overcome. These addictions harm our mental and physical health and deplete essential nutrients in the body, particularly NAD.
NAD is a crucial coenzyme involved in over 500 different chemical reactions in the body. It plays a vital role in energy production, DNA repair, and maintaining proper cellular functioning. However, addiction to substances like nicotine, alcohol, and drugs can significantly deplete NAD levels in the body.
Symptoms of NAD deficiency include fatigue, muscle soreness, weight gain, difficulty sleeping and concentrating, brain fog, and decreased stamina. These symptoms can make it even harder for someone to overcome an addiction.
To combat NAD deficiency, consider taking vitamin B3, also known as niacin. Niacin helps increase NAD levels in the body, improving energy, helping to reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, and aiding in addiction recovery.
Some people may experience a flushing response on their skin when taking niacin, which can be uncomfortable. In this case, no-flush niacin can be used instead.
In addition to supplementing with niacin, there are other ways to increase NAD levels in the body, such as intermittent fasting, following a healthy ketogenic diet, and regular exercise.
These lifestyle changes can support addiction recovery and overall well-being. In some cases, clinics offer IV therapy for NAD to help with addiction recovery. However, this can be expensive and not accessible to everyone.

ex-smoker here (13 years, almost a pack a day); I tried quitting 3 times, the 4th time I prepped myself by reading books about anxiety and depression and that's what finally broke off my addiction to nicotine - you just have to know how your brain works and from there, you can retrain it. One of the tricks I used was to constantly tell myself that I had a life before cigarettes and I wanted that life back - so the 4th time I tried to quit, I was successful. Been smoke-free since 2016.

Putting people aside if needs be, changing your environment if possible. Trying something new in life, always good for the brain. Hobbies, learning to cook nice meals, which youll love with actual taste buds. Weight gain is way less unhealth than smoking. Hope you get motivated again.

There is so much more to this than meets the eye. As a recovering alcoholic. About 4 years sober now. I am noticing that the different substances are not the ONLY issue. I am noticing I also have a lot of addictions to my emotions (How I feel). AKA "emotional addictions". We must also recognize that it is just as easy to NOT have a substance abuse problem but to constantly go through a "vicious cycle" of returning to places in our minds that make us "feel" better but that are not good for us at all. Years of our lives are lost due to "chasing our feelings" just to never reach what we thought would fulfill us or make us happy. We must conquer and overcome our "emotional addictions" as well. There are hundreds of unhealthy behaviors that we could attribute this to. I am learning and realizing more and more of these daily. Thanks for the video, Dr. Berg.

Well did you look at your Associates and see what state of mind they were in? Your family? They explained the family disease to me at the Milan treatment Center in Seattle (1983 when ACOA was only 2 years old) when we were trying to get my Dad sober.... take a Calder Mobile & place everyone at the end of the rods that are balancing in the family UNIT and AS one person gets sick and progressively goes downhill, whether it's alcoholism, cancer, or whatever it is everybody on the mobile has to change their position in order to keep the family balanced....for example if the father is the alcoholic the wife has to become the head of the household...where he is the one to carry out the garbage now the sons or the siblings have to carry it out and when everybody takes over his responsibilities in the family "resentments" develop which creates a negative behavior pattern... resentments are the main cause of a drunk going back out drug addicts are even more fragile

The hardest addiction to beat is sugar. Fasting helps tremendously with coming off of sugar and a high carb diet.

The best way to get rid of sugar addiction is to get enough sun. check out HRM sun gazing. one of the effect of sun gazing is reduced hunger. I believe sun gazing jumpstart the body's ability to start burning fat as fuel, as oppose to only running on glucose. and you should be making home cooked food whenever possible. without getting rid of the MSG, it's going be hard to calm the body down enough to start fat burning.

Just don't get discouraged or beat yourself up when you "slip up". Just remember that you are a human and that's what humans do. I'm sober from alcohol for 15 years now. It took a long time and a lot of relapses but it finally came after a lot of praying and some time in prison, but if that's what it took for me to get sober, then I'm ok with that. At least I don't drink and cause massive heartbreak in my family or friends anymore. Cigs are proving to be a lot tougher for me. I'm gonna give it another shot with this new info to me. Best of luck, my friend. God bless you and your children.

There are two forms of B3. I take the nicotinamide (niacinamide) for my arthritis and my husband takes the niacin it for blood lipids/to prevent heart disease. I was an alcoholic up until a year ago and managed to get my drinking under control with something most people haven’t heard of but when I post it I find it is removed shortly after. I’ll spell it out placing a capital T in between some of the letters. If you know of anyone suffering with this condition I would strongly urge them to buy the book, ‘The CTure for AlcoTlism by Roy EsTcapa. Phd. Look up The movie One LittTle PiTll. It’s a real eye opener. Look up Thrive Talcohol ReTcovery on KZfaq for true testimonials. Tclaudia Tchristian ‘how it feels to have a Thijacked Tbrain’ on KZfaq and all her other KZfaq’s videos. It’s called The TsinclairT Tmethod and is THE answer the Tmedical Tprofession do not want us to know about. It’s been proven scientifically so they have to be seen to use it in some cases but Tprescribe it incorrectly to give it a based rap. The Talcohol Tindustry and the Trevolving doors of rehab can then keep up their huge Tprofits. It literally Tde-addicts the brain. After 30yrs I can now Tdrink socially and safely! The method gets the brain, over time to Tpharmacological Textinction (the brain’s eraser of the Treinforcement of Talcohol). It removes the taddictive neural Tpathways from the brain. All I do I take this little Tpill one hour before I drink and drink Tmindfully. It isn’t a new science and it REALLY DOES WORK!

I'm 28, but I have been relatively addicted to video games since I am 3 years old I believe, I started binge drinking at 13, I remember the first time I ever binged, my body looved it. Smoking since I'm 15, binging p*rn since I was 13, exercising a loot since I'm 13 aswell, anxiety/depression/suicidal varied from 14 to 26 years old, I feel physically addicted to many many things in my life up to this day and having sequels of my mental health issues, even tho I've been working on myself/thinking about all these the entire time I've been doing them. I'm watching your videos for a long time and I find it quite interesting that I always did a lot of things you advice , sometimes without even knowing scientifically that it is helping me, like I'm taking Niacin ( with other vitamins... ), for like 6 months now I attempted ( with no deep motivation/conviction ) to stop smoking 4 or 5 times, never managed to handle my 3 weeks later cravings, just not livable, I stopped going out to not start drinking 5 months ago, after 1 beer I just can't stop, and I can't go out without 1 beer I attempted to stop masturbation few times, after 3 days I'm just going crazy mentally/physically Last time I stopped playing video games, I was binging all the listed above, Working out 4/6 times a week, only habit I truely can enjoy and feel is worth letting myself going in. I'm doing good these days, but I believe some people like me are physically screwed, or at least need a huge and constant amount of efforts/research/test to balance themselves, from my perspective.

In additional to what Dr. Berg says about Niacin and NAD being helpful for overcoming addiction, I believe that NAC is also helpful, alongside, methylene blue and grounding. I believe that symptomatic of addictions is the inability to truly rest. I've found that taking methylene blue and sleeping grounded makes for extremely deep sleep. Our body is very resilient.

This makes sense since we were designed to be in fellowship with Him and when we’re not, we resort to all kinds of other things to make us feel whole. I will pray that the Lord makes Himself real to you in a way you can’t deny and that He helps you turn from your addictions and gives you lasting peace. 💗

@@dustin4344 One morning I was sick and tired of everything so I got on my knees and said the most heartfelt prayer I've ever said. I surrendered myself and my way of living and I asked God to help me with my character defects (like laziness, lack of self control, etc). For the next week I continued to pray and talk to God about giving Him my life and he delivered with miracles every day. I also listen to a lot of Christian praise music, am plugged into an amazing church group and have new church friends. It takes time but give your life to God and surrender your old ways 1 day at a time. IT WORKS!

I have a painful autoimmune disease and have been on opioids for over 20 years but when my insurance stopped paying for my regular meds and wanted me to start fentanyl or morphine, I quit all of it. It was a rough couple weeks but that was 4 months ago and I don’t have any desire to take anything. Pain is there but my head is clear.

I've been taking Niacin in doses of 250mg early morning before shower and at bedtime. The flush lasts anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes but I don't mind it knowing the true benefits of it. The flush proves it is working and gets easier as your body adjusts. Yes the redness, heat and tingling are intense however, your mind can make that much worse if you allow it too. Self-control is key not fear. Your body will thank you. Great video!!

I knew a man who solved his drinking problem by switching up his sleeping schedule. He would get up a 3:30 AM so he could nap through his "danger zone" period from 3:00PM to 8:00 when he would consume alcohol. When he woke up at 8:00 PM, he would eat and get ready for bed since he would be getting up early the next day.

@lamnuck Ай бұрын

It's best to stop eating 2 to 3 hours before going to bed so that wouldn't have been healthy unless he finished eating by 830 and didn't go to bed til at least 1030. But then that would only be 5 hours of sleep which isn't good either.

@@lamnuck Are you fn serious? Get off your high horse and take a look at the fact that being an alcoholic is way worse than eating too close to bedtime.

Thanks Dr Berg. Hidden unhealed emotional wounds often play a direct role in substance abuse and over eating. Humanity suffers on the whole with feelings of being not good enough or unworthy. We also deal with trauma that often kicks us to seek a way out. It’s a vicious cycle. With eating, we overeat to protect ourselves if we’ve suffered from abuse or we eat to nurture ourselves if we didn’t feel loved as a child. There are many reasons people turn to alcohol and drugs but in my view not necessarily to get a boost of energy. I will try Niacin to see if it helps with my weight loss. Love you and your channel. You’ve helped tremendously. ❤

I never had a problem with cigarettes, alcohol, or drugs of any kind. My biggest addiction is food, specifically junk food. I have multiple diseases like diverticulosis, fatty liver disease, and gastritis because of it. Before I started dieting in December, I felt like I was on the verge of death every single day. It was like a perpetual flu. Breathing was harder, walking was harder, even thinking was harder. I'm just about to close out my 4th month of dieting and am 56 pounds down. 20 minutes of moderately intense cardio daily with a 1500-1800 calories per day diet is doing wonders. I haven't been able to completely cut out junk food, but I have ditched soda, liquid calories, fast food, and bakery junk for good. Hopefully good health is in my future. I still get pains in my body, but they're much more manageable than before. Exercise has also been a miracle in my fight against anxiety and insomnia.

I loved the flush. Then there were too many mainstream articles showing that niacin doesn’t really help but can affect the liver and raise Hba1c and Lp(a)? So I started bookending my weekly or biweekly niacin trip with Berberine (maybe 4 hrs before and after to deal with the sugar dump?) and NAC to protect my liver. All this was fine, and doing my niacin was like getting a deep tissue massage for my muscle soreness. Recently I have slowed down because I find niacin before my cardio impairs my output and if I don’t workout on that particular day, it causes insomnia. Also I figure I need to let my muscles go through soreness, doms, and inflammation without antioxidants and this chemcial masaage to reap the full benefit of my workout. Hormesis or whatever. So now I use niacin very sparingly. 😢
