Front Cover
Balboa Press, Jan 17, 2019 - Medical - 218 pages

In the pages of this book, Paula Norris Mestayer shares her remarkable story of 18 years of work treating the brain disease of addiction. By delivering intravenous infusions of NAD+—a natural coenzyme of niacin—her treatment enables patients to kick opiates, alcohol, benzodiazepines, methamphetamines, and more, in 10 short days—with minimal withdrawal symptoms or cravings. She explains—in laymen's terms—what is known thus far about why NAD+ is effective, and shares the inspirational stories of people who have journeyed through addiction's "dark night of the soul" and found their way to health, wholeness, and freedom once again.
What others say about this book

"When we fully understand the role of NAD+ in overcoming oxidative stress, which is a leading cause of illness and death in developed countries, it will be obvious why it works to treat addiction."
— Dr. Ross Grant, University of Sydney, Australia

"I think this is going to be the beginning of something big, especially if Paula has anything to do with it."
— James P. Watson, MD, Clinical Faculty, UCLA School of Medicine
