Welcome to the class! From my research, it looks like skullcap might be a great one to try.  Hope that’s helpful! 1 user thanked author for this post.

Linda Gaines January 4, 2024 at 6:47 PM #46456 Vicindy BarnettStudent My husband dips and would like to leave this bad habit behind. How much, what form, and how often should he take a recommended herb? January 4, 2024 at 7:22 PM #46457 Greg BoggsStudent Lobelia helps with nicotine withdrawal. I would get it in powder form and throw it in a smoothie, but however you get it into him will be good 1 user thanked author for this post.

I guess it seemed to me that if people knew what they were up against, it would help with trying to solve the problem of addiction. Sorry I did not give an explanation of the link in the first place. 1 user thanked author for this post.
