The Nutrition Guide: Boosting Recovery with a Healthy Diet

| 
Most people don’t think about diet when they enter treatment for addiction. They think of withdrawal. They think of counseling sessions or group therapy. People in recovery talk about following the 12 Steps, finding purpose in life or developing a relationship with a higher power.
Eating a healthy, well-balanced diet is rarely mentioned.

“I don’t think anybody can be active in recovery if they aren’t nourished,” Advanced Recovery Systems dietitian Kurry Friedell told DrugRehab.com. “Eating properly, getting consistent sleep and being active boost the ‘good feeling’ hormones in your body that lead to a successful recovery.”
