HEALTHY DIET IN ADDICTION RECOVERY
Clean, organic food cleanses the body. It decreases stress and “levels you out” the natural, drug-free way.
Diet is often overlooked, not just by addicts, but by the general public. Junk food can be an addiction in itself, just like cocaine or heroin. The skills needed for retaining both sobriety and proper diet tend to overlap. Healthy eating is one of the best relapse prevention strategies to which you can commit yourself.
Most formal recovery programs include some form of nutritional education. With this guidance, you’ll learn your way around a balanced meal. You may also feel inclined to investigate how certain foods affect your mood – a paradigm you probably never before starting treatment.
