I agree with you and also support the premise that Bill Wilson postulated re: the importance of diet and vitamin therapy in his Oyster Bay papers; I agree with you and respect a real medical doctor, Robert Smith, M.D., who treated his alcoholic patients with sauerkraut (rich in vitamins) in order to restore a healthy body before the manufacture of vitamins was feasible.

What is absent, though, from the article is her (at least in the years 1993-96) open hostility toward Alcoholics Anonymous. In my opinion, A.A. has little if any place in her view of recovery.

In my follow up to the article I addressed that. Believe me I believe in AA. It saved my life October 12, 1984. I think her views about AA suck. However the low carb part of this was addressed by Bill Wilson and he did this before the actual effects of Niacin and low insulin levels on the body's production of eicosanoids and their dramatic effect on health and well being were discovered
