I'm not a big fan, but others rave about it. All of the evidence for its effectiveness is anecdotal. One of the components, L-Tyrosine, made me really sick and so dizzy I couldn't drive and had trouble thinking and walking straight. So just be aware that just because these chemicals can be purchased over the counter, that doesn't mean their harmless. Other parts of like vitamins, are less toxic at reasonable doses. To me the most valuable ingredient was immodium. But like I said, lots of people swear by the recipe.

Good luck

Aside from the Amino Acid vitamins - which have mixed reviews, though Ive mostly heard good things - walking and hot showers are for me the best and only relief.  When I was in the thick of it my fiancee forced me up and out for 30 minute walks.. I went slow, I cussed him out the whole time lol, BUT it really did help -- in one way to take my mind off my misery and it also helped the leg cramping.

HI  the thomas recipe will help you thew withdrawals not get you around them...I am from the school of thought that you can use all the fhelp you can get doing this so if you can afford the supplements try them...its different  for everyone some think it helps others dont I dont think there is any one cure all but time...I took whey protein shakes there loaded with good amino acids and then I took a calcium/magnesium/zinc supplement 4 with breakfast and 4 at dinner I withdrew from methadone so thewout my taper I had withdrawals the 3 in one seamed to help the most you can get it at walmart for 6 bucks
its cheep and effective good luck to you and God bless....Gnarly
