When
a person slides deeper into substance abuse, the chances are high
that their eating habits will take a big hit. Some food experts and
psychologists note that people undergoing substance abuse treatment
mostly go for fast food and other suspect eating options. However,
such an avenue will all but disappear when they enter rehab and are
introduced to a healthier diet.
A
reputable rehabilitation center will have a nutrition plan for fixing
the body’s responses towards illegal substances. Amassing the
willpower to continue with the rehab requires putting your brain in
the right mindset and consuming foods heavy in protein. The key to a
healthy recovery is to eat three full balanced meals a day, and
that’s something your rehab nutritionist will see to.
Some
food products have amino acids geared towards reducing addiction.
Dairy products such as cow/goat milk and cheese, for example have
L-glutamine and L-phenylalanine. Eating lean meats plus fruit and
vegetables do add to the overall health. Vitamin supplements and
other medication may be administered after every meal or as
prescribed by the doctor. Sugary or caffeinated drinks must be
avoided at all costs.
Going
on the rehab trail requires more than staying away from substances.
You need to eat right to get your body back on track.
