It delves into how hormonal imbalances, particularly those involving stress hormones like cortisol and neurotransmitters like dopamine, can significantly influence addictive tendencies. The book uniquely emphasizes that addressing these underlying biological causes is crucial for sustainable recovery, shifting the focus from solely managing symptoms. The book reveals intriguing insights, such as how chronic stress and elevated cortisol levels can exacerbate cravings by affecting reward pathways in the brain.

The book progresses systematically, starting with an introduction to key hormones and their functions. It then dedicates sections to stress hormones, neurotransmitters, and metabolic hormones, each explaining their specific roles in addiction and providing practical strategies for restoring hormonal balance. It concludes with a holistic approach, offering evidence-based techniques like dietary modifications and stress reduction to support recovery.
