  4. Instead of turning to a juice cleanse or some other detox diet, Beaver recommends providing the nutrients your body needs to recover. Mix them together and allow it to steep for around minutes. Sip a cup of cinnamon tea at least half an hour before going to bed for effective results. Alcoholism affects people of any race, sex, and socioeconomic background. If you or someone you love has an alcohol abuse problem, it's important to get help.
