Smile hi Claudio, and welcome

I wish I was in Buenos Aires right now. I'm sick of shovelling snow and scraping ice from my car.

Are you following a ketogenic diet only to cure sugar addiction, or are you also trying to reduce your weight?? The diet is the most effective treatment for both; make sure you are eating adequate protein foods - eating smaller meals and snacks more frequently will definitely help keep your blood sugar levels from swinging up and down, which is the trigger for the cravings, as you know.

I have not tried any of the nutrients and supplements you mentioned, but I know many people find them helpful. Glutamine especially is used for treating addictions and improving mental energy as well as for building muscles. Meats, fish and fowl are all high in natural glutamine.

Here is an interesting and informative site. Lots if articles on health, nutrition and supplements - in both english and espanol. http://www.chemedia.com/Pag00003.htm

Here is another good site, very detailed encyclopedia of vitamins and supplements (english only). You might be able to order some supplements from the USA if you cannot find them locally in Argentina. http://www.mothernature.com/ency/Index/Supp_Index.asp

Good luck

Doreen
