“Hello! When I first started the The 101 Program I had been drinking uncontrollably for 20 years. I had been to in-patient programs, to AA meetings, to intensive out patient programs and counseling and tried a variety of medications including Anabuse. I was convinced that this was going to be my life until I died. I held down a job and had a wonderful family but from early morning until late at night I required alcohol in order to function and then I heard about The 101 Program and met Ms. Petralli and her wonderful staff. I have now been alcohol free for nearly three years, but most importantly is the way I did it. I am not in a constant state of craving drink. The program has addressed my bio-chemical imbalance in my brain and I no longer crave alcohol. It was hard at first but not as hard as the other programs I have been in. The program adjusts your biochemistry and for a week I didn’t feel great but that soon passed and then I began doing things again that I hadn’t been able to do in 20 years: long walks with my family, rejoining the gym. It was truly amazing. The 101 Program is not just about the absence of alcohol; it is about the presence of health. If you truly want to become whole and healthy, if you want to regain the joy that alcohol takes from all of us then there is a way to do that and this is the way. Elizabeth

I went through hell and back before I found this program in September ’06. I prayed for years that God would help me find my way through this and finally I found his answer on the Internet one night when I was trying to find some kind of online support group, being hesitant to join AA because as you know, it’s not anonymous, even though it should be.I ordered the book online, then I contacted the 101 program and I’ve been working my way through it ever since. It was really amazing. My anxiety and my urge to drink alcohol literally left me in the first week. I spent a lot of that week sobbing with a mixture of joy and apprehension- feeling for the first time in about 10 years what I had always wanted to feel -a ‘normal’ relationship with alcohol. Like Elisabeth I was for a long time waiting for the whole thing to collapse and to start feeling lousy again, but I just don’t need alcohol now. This has changed my life to an unbelievable degree. I think I embarrass the author by gushing at her with my thanks. But how do you thank someone for giving you your life back? Cherbee
I just wanted to tell you that I finished the Krispy Kleen 8 week detox about a week ago. Your program was a life saver. I have tried countless times to quit drinking, all unsuccessful. Exercise alone did not help. I needed the nutritional and supplemental support that is offered in the Krispy Kleen program. I want to thank Ms. Petralli for taking the time and energy to compile this program. Not only has my compulsive desire to get drunk everyday disappeared, but I am now running 3-4 miles every day, also quit smoking, I’m accomplishing things I thought I’d never have the inspiration for, and making big life changes. I can’t thank you enough. This detox program is a real success, and everyone with an alcohol problem should know about it. I can see the change is permanent. Even my cravings for high-carb / high-sugar foods has disappeared. I feel The 101 Program should have more exposure than she does. I have already told several alcoholic relatives about it. Hopefully, they’ll take it seriously enough to embark on this journey. Getting started is the hardest part (I received the shipment late December but didn’t get the guts to really start on it for real until late February). Thanks again. Feel free to publish this testimony if you wish from John G., Lancaster, PA.” Regards, John
“After 20 years of drinking myself to sleep every night, I approached this program with trepidation and skepticism. However, with Genita’s coaxing and a well developed preparation week, I successfully stopped drinking and had remarkably little or no impulse to commence my old habit. A landmark program without the stigma of counseling or meetings. Highly recommended.” DD – Texas
Hello! First of all, let me just thank Ms. Petralli for making the effort to consolidate all this extremely valuable information. I’ve been looking around for quite some time for an alternative approach to fighting alcohol abuse with no luck. I purchased the book a few nights ago and have been glued to it ever since. I finished it last night, and I totally resonate with its point of view. I have always considered diet to be the most crucial factor in any problem…..I just never made the sugar connection with my problem drinking. I am very excited about the 101 Program…thanks for all your help. TS – Washington
Thank you, I got it, I’ve read it, I’m 3 days into this now & she’s absolutely right. I feel great, both mentally & physically because of what I read & have done, and I’m only 3-days into getting rid of my problem. LM – New Hampshire
Thank you for your patience and I have been dry now for 2 weeks and have not felt the same pain as in previous occasions!! Thanks. AP – United Kingdom
Completed week 5 and am coasting to the Krispy Kleen finish line. Not sure I’m going to do the two-day fast as I have already lost 15 lbs. Got my blood tested Friday and obtained results today. Biggest surprise was my cholesterol that dropped from 275 to 188. My blood pressure also dropped from an average of 138/84 to 115/75. Looking forward to eating a little more variety. I don’t even think about drinking. It’s simply a non issue. Regards DD – Texas
All is well. No desire to drink whatsoever. Based on this program as well as the “eat for you type” structure I’ve adopted, I’ve managed to shed some of my chronic ills. For example, I’ve been battling a ringworm problem on both feet (my cat!) for about three months using a home remedy (bleach and oil or oregano) with little luck. Mysteriously, the problem has suddenly cleared up on its own. I’ve also had marked improvements in other chronic conditions such as prostate discomfort, candidas (rectal itching) and dry eye. When I started the program my blood pressure was 138 / 84 but this morning it was down to 117 / 75. In a couple of weeks I will be getting another blood test to assess the affect on my cholesterol.

Thank you for your kind note and I’m glad to discover this book and the methodology behind it. I’m a smart, nice looking 49 year old man with a good relationship, good home and much to be thankful for. I’m also addicted to alcohol and have been alarmed over the past several years to see my addiction grow with an alarming, frightening rate. I’m experiencing everything I’ve read so far in the book and already feel a sense of relief in knowing that I’m not doomed and my life is over. I see that there’s a reason to be hopeful about the future now.
Thank you for your lengthy e-mail. It was most informative, and I will check out the resources. I’ve been studying up on the hypoglycemia connection myself (my doctor told me I have a 40% chance of developing diabetes in the next 10 years, so have been trying to change my eating habits.) I see some of these same carbohydrate related signs in my teenage son. Keep up the great work! NS – Arizona
I’m very impressed with the biochemical approach. Cravings have been bothering me for years and this is the first time I have found a scientific approach to dealing with them. You are doing important work. Thanks again! LM – California
Thanks for all your help!!!! I finally got the program installed and am very happy with the contents. I hereby bestow upon you a medal for aid and assistance above the call of duty. Thanks again. BT – Oregon
I had breast cancer 6 years ago and while on chemo and radiation, compiled a personal supplement regime of over 35 vitamins, minerals etc. Many I see are included in your supplements. I was focusing on liver cleansing as the chemo needed to be cleansed out of my system. I am always looking and doing periodic cleansing and detox. I appreciate your approach and explanations of the body functions etc. I feel this could be very valuable presented to the cancer community as well for recovery from the toxic chemicals. Many thanks once again. ML – New Mexico
Hello i received your second version and i think its great!! … i cant wait to start the program. Thanks! EB – Connecticut
My husband and I have just finished reading the first chapter. We both feel so relieved and happy we could just sit down and cry. Thanks to all of you. Sincerely, LS – Montana
AA meetings are ridiculous, I recognized that right off the bat, and they do leave you with a feeling of hopelessness that sticks, until you read “Alcoholism: The Cause & The Cure”. It opened my eyes & mind to the truth. Knowing what’s wrong with you & having methods to heal it are what I looked for, for several years. I gave up until recently, and happened on your website.
The information Alcoholism: The Cause & The Cure provides releases you from the depression and anxiety, the feeling that you’re doomed, that AA preaches. It makes you understand what’s happening to you & why, and how to change/stop it, and what to expect along the way. EM – New York
Hi, I purchased your book about a month ago and found it quite informing and must say it is helping me feel better.
Thanks – already reading, seems to be a sensible solution.
I have included the testimonials from those that did not find AA helpful because it is an honest representation of the experiences that many share. While AA has and does help people, it will never replace treating the addiction in the holistic bio-medical way it needs to be treated to heal it and that is why so many do not find success in AA. I do not consider this the fault of AA as it is a support group and not a treatment and many go to meetings as a stand-alone treatment and that is where they go wrong. However, it would be helpful if AA embraced the now proven fact that there is a cure and would encourage people to begin the holistic treatments that address the symptoms that make their lives miserable and drive them back to drinking as well as the holistic treatments such as this one that truly embody the cure. Change comes slow – I’m just glad that you are here now!
