But for many, the early days of cutting back or quitting altogether can be challenging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When someone cuts back on alcohol or stops drinking entirely, the body naturally enters a recovery phase, according <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pamela Tambini<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, M.D., an internal medicine physician, addiction medicine specialist, and medical director at Engage Wellness.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cAs your system recalibrates, you might experience certain symptoms related to withdrawal like fatigue, sweating, headaches, or trouble sleeping,\u201d she says. While uncomfortable, these changes are actually a sign that your body is healing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The good news? Targeted supplements can play a valuable role in your recovery toolkit, in part because regular alcohol use can deplete the body of essential nutrients, explains <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edmond Hakimi<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, D.O., internal medicine physician and medical director at Wellbridge. \u201cCertain supplements can help replenish those stores, support liver function as your body clears out toxins, and promote a more balanced mood and sleep as your nervous system resets.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Of course, they&#8217;re no cure-all, but <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the right supplements can offer meaningful benefits as your body adjusts to life without alcohol.

While you can technically take it anytime, Hakimi recommends taking magnesium in the evening to support sleep and relaxation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. L-theanine<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/l-theanine-200-mg-120-capsules\/vs-3836\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">L-theanine<\/a> is a noteworthy component of green tea, and adding it to your routine is a great move if you&#8217;re giving booze the boot. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/l-theanine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">L-theanine is an amino acid<\/a> found in tea that promotes a sense of relaxation without making you sleepy,&#8221; says Hakimi. It&#8217;s a go-to for easing feelings of anxiety throughout the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for dosing, Hakimi recommends taking 100 to 200 milligrams of l-theanine in the morning or during periods of heightened stress.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/gaba-750mg-180-tablets\/vs-2218\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GABA<\/a> is another supplement that can offer meaningful support on your sobriety journey, as it&#8217;s also known for\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">calming anxiety. &#8220;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GABA is a neurotransmitter<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that helps calm the nervous system to ease stress and reduce cravings,\u201d Hakimi says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In supplement form, this feel-good brain chemical is best taken in doses of 250 to 500 milligrams at night to minimize anxiety and promote sound sleep, suggests Hakimi.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. B-Complex Vitamins\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/vitamins-supplements\/letter-vitamins\/vitamin-b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B vitamins<\/a>\u2014eight essential nutrients that support everything from energy production to brain and nerve health\u2014are often among the first to become depleted with regular alcohol use. \u201cVitamins B1, B6, and B12 are especially crucial for mood, cognition, and energy metabolism,\u201d Tambini says. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC9662251\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Low levels of these nutrients<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can contribute to symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and low mood. Adding a B-complex can be a smart step toward feeling more balanced and energized on your sobriety journey, Hakimi adds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking a daily <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/vitamins-supplements\/letter-vitamins\/vitamin-b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B-complex supplement<\/a> in the morning can help restore optimal levels of these vitamins, supporting cognitive function, energy, and overall well-being. Hakimi recommends checking in with a doctor to determine the right dosage for your needs, especially since some people may benefit from higher levels early on, depending on their alcohol use history.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Milk Thistle\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to alcohol recovery, supporting your liver is key\u2014and that\u2019s where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/milk-thistle-extract-600-mg-100-capsules\/vs-4316\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">milk thistle<\/a> comes in. \u201cYour liver does a lot of heavy lifting when it comes to clearing alcohol from your body, but milk thistle contains silymarin, which may help protect and repair liver cells,\u201d Hakimi says. This flowering herb also may <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0944711320301525\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">help defend brain cells from oxidative stress related to alcohol use.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/how-detoxification-supplements-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Support Your Body&#8217;s Natural Detoxification Process<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tambini typically recommends taking 150 to 300 milligrams of milk thistle in the morning with breakfast to maximize absorption and minimize digestive discomfort.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Adaptogens\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/drugs\/22361-adaptogens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adaptogens<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are botanical allies that help the body adapt to physical and emotional stress, offering key support during alcohol recovery, Hakimi says. Of the many adaptogens to choose from, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/herbs-natural-remedies\/popular-herbs\/ashwagandha\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ashwagandha<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/rhodiola-250-mg-60-capsules\/vs-7282\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rhodiola<\/a> stand out for their ability to help the brain and body recalibrate. \u201cAshwagandha can lower cortisol, reduce feelings of anxiety, and support more restful sleep, while rhodiola is more stimulating and may improve energy and focus,\u201d says Tambini.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hakimi typically recommends taking 300 to 600 milligrams of ashwagandha once or twice a day. It can be taken in the morning or evening. Rhodiola, meanwhile, is usually taken in doses of 200 to 400 milligrams and is best used earlier in the day as its energizing effects may be too stimulating at night, he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>7. Electrolytes\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drinking can deplete key <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/protein-fitness\/goals\/energy-endurance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">electrolytes<\/a>, so you&#8217;ll definitely want to focus on hydration if you&#8217;re cutting back or ditching it completely. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAlcohol causes dehydration and throws off electrolyte balance, which can lead to fatigue, dizziness, or headaches, so supplementing with electrolytes, especially sodium, potassium, and magnesium, can help <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">restore hydration and energy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u201d Tambini says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While sports drinks are a common go-to, Hakimi and Tambini recommend using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/protein-fitness\/goals\/energy-endurance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">low-sugar electrolyte mix<\/a> once or twice a day\u2014particularly during those early booze-free weeks\u2014to help the body rehydrate and rebalance more efficiently.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether they&#8217;re exploring a mindful break like Dry July or beginning a full recovery journey, more and more people are choosing to take alcohol off the table.
