Alcoholism can be hereditary or obtained through habit. Alcoholics are easily recognized, puffiness, redness, hoarseness in speech, and a high pulse rate are all very common signs in most alcoholics. Alcoholics are also prone to be more irritable, succumb to delirium, and impaired judgement. The most common and life threatening disease caused by alcoholism is the cirrhosis of the liver. Cirrhosis of the liver is where the liver tissue is heavily damaged thus causing bowel movement problems, stomach disorders, damaged brain cells, and eventually the individual will become physically unfit.

Apples

Apples, if eaten regularly, help reduce intoxications and reduce the craving for wine and liquor.

Dates

Dates are great in the treatment of the bodies reaction to a diet completely void of alcohol after regular use.  Rub 3-4 dates together, put the mash in water and drink.  Repeat this 2-3 times a day for a month or two to help the body cope.

Celery Juice

Celery juice with water, consumed everyday for a month or two is great in assisting the body with the elimination of alcohol.

Juices of all kind

Juicing is very beneficial in all areas of our health, I have read that fresh juicing everyday in replacement of 1-2 meals a day (then a vegetarian diet for the other meals) for a couple of months is great with the detoxification of the body.  This is also great for a lot of other sicknesses.
