Nutritionist on Site

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1913″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Physical health and a good diet are two important things many people don’t prioritize when they’re in the grip of addiction. That’s why we think it’s so crucial for people to eat well when they’re going into recovery. We want to change negative behaviors into positive ones, and a good diet will help you feel like you can take on the world.[/vc_column_text][vc_cta h2=”” style=”custom” custom_background=”#566FAA”]Nutrition is a key part of the recovery process at our facility, and we have a nutritionist on site as well as a team of great chefs, who cook a variety of healthy meals for everyone who stays with us.[/vc_cta][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Improving Mood” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]Some nutrients in our food are directly linked to the production of ‘happy chemicals’ like dopamine and serotonin. Food that is devoid of proper amino acids, vitamins and minerals will not only make you feel bad physically, but mentally too.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Undoing Some of the Damage” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]Many clients who come to us for treatment have dramatically neglected themselves during their addiction, and often suffer from a variety of gastrointestinal and digestive disorders because of it. Some are even completely malnourished. A fiber-rich, protein-filled diet full of variety can help you get back on the road to recovery.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Something Positive to Focus on” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_column_text]Though there are plenty of activities available to clients within our facility, it’s quite normal for people to feel slightly aimless once they end a drug or alcohol habit. Their one goal used to be sourcing their next fix, and now that’s obsolete.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”35px”][vc_cta h2=”” style=”custom” custom_background=”#566FAA”]Focusing on diet and exercise, as well as the benefits to be gained from it, can give clients something really positive to focus on. Many of our patients leave the facility and maintain the same interest in their diet that they developed while in our residential care, helping them stay healthy in the long term.[/vc_cta][/vc_column][/vc_row]
