A Harvard-led clinical trial found Lief reduced craving, substance use and negative emotions among individuals in early recovery from SUD.







In a randomized clinical trial conducted by Harvard and Mass. General Hospital, real-time HRV biofeedback weakened the link between craving and subsequent substance use.
When craving was strongest, participants using Lief were five times less likely to use alcohol or drugs.
