Bill Wilson dedicated much of his time and effort in the 1960’s to the research of Vitamin B-3/Niacin Therapy as a treatment for Schizophrenia and Alcoholism.

Dr. Abram Hoffer was a doctor that had helped Bill Wilson with his research into Vitamin B-3 Therapy. He studied megavitamin therapy and other nutritional interventions as potentially effective treatments for schizophrenia and other diseases. Hoffer was also involved in studies of LSD as an experimental therapy for alcoholism and the discovery that high-dose niacin can be used to treat schizophrenia and depression with alcoholics. Hoffer's ideas about megavitamin therapy to treat mental illness were not accepted by the medical community.
