Tuesday April 24th I’ve decided to write a daily journal to track my progress while taking the Kudzu herbal supplement. To recap, I started taking the Kudzu about a week and a half ago but not consistently. I did notice a difference in my response to alcohol since I started taking it, it’s difficult to explain, but my need to continuously put a drink up to my lips was not there. I still over drank two of the days but it seemed to take a lot longer to get to the point of irrationality where I compulsively keep drinking. Also, the buzz effect I get sometimes even after one drink was not there. I didn’t take the Kudzu consistently, even missed days, so I’m hoping to test these next two weeks taking it as they say, 2 pills after breakfast, 2 pills after lunch. I took it yesterday and I have noticed one of the side effects is that I don’t digest meals as quickly. It’s not quite heartburn, but like the food sits in your stomach. I had trouble sleeping and had stomach cramps because I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I’m hoping this isn’t regular. I’m going to try to eat lighter at night to help alleviate. 3 weeks - Tuesday May 15th. It has been three weeks since I started taking Kudzu. The good news is I've only over drank 3 times, which might sound like a lot but is good for me. I've drank at cookouts, dinner, home, and a soccer game and can honestly say that the urge to overdrink was greatly diminished. I have not been as consistent as I'd like taking the 2 pills after meals twice a day but the effects still remained. The only real side effect I have felt is indigestion, gas and a bloated feeling, like I'm not digesting. But I have been taking some Gas-ex and that seems to do the trick. I'm going to keep taking it for the next two weeks and see how my drinking is affected. It is not a magic pill, you still make the choice to drink or over drink, but I can honestly say it has changed the "need" to keep putting a drink to your lips.

I take it three times a day with meals. It's effective in reducing the urge to drink, and if you can make it past the first couple of days, it's smooth sailing, but you must keep using it. You are going to feel different, at first, and many will contribute this to the Kudzu itself, but in reality you've just removed an energy source -- alcohol; not a good energy source, as your body ...

I take it three times a day with meals. It's effective in reducing the urge to drink, and if you can make it past the first couple of days, it's smooth sailing, but you must keep using it. You are going to feel different, at first, and many will contribute this to the Kudzu itself, but in reality you've just removed an energy source -- alcohol; not a good energy source, as your body uses alcohol first for energy, carbohydrates second, followed by protein. So if you're drinking and wondering why you're gaining weight, that would be why. Another tip, while I'm here.. stay AWAY from sugar. Alcohol and sugar feed the same receptors. That's why you'll see tons of sugary treats at AA meetings. Give up sugar and alcohol, let Kudzu feed your brain, and you're good to go. Good luck everyone.

Since I have been taking it I need less sleep or cannot sleep as long. I used to go to be like at 10 and wake up at 5:30. I have been waking up at 2:30 and cannot get back to sleep not sure if this from Kudzu but have not changed anything else.
