Nutrition Counseling as Part of a Multidisciplinary Approach to Dependency, Part 1

Nutrition in Recovery: The opioid epidemic has just been declared a national emergency. Coupled with alcohol dependency, addiction to illicit and legally-prescribed drugs has reached crisis proportions, yet our current treatment models often are inadequate. In this setting, David Wiss, a Registered Dietician Nutritionist, has founded Nutrition in Recovery, a premier service offering nutrition counseling as part of a multidisciplinary approach to dependency. Why is what you eat during recovery so important? Do addicts have unique nutritional deficits? Why is the microbiome involved? How is fiber crucial? Why does “disordered eating” complicate recovery? What vitamins, minerals, amino acids, probiotics, and EFAs support abstinence? Why does substance dependency blunt appetite for healthy foods? How is the brain’s reward system involved? What role does meal-timing play in taming addiction? Click HERE for part 2.

Magnesium is crucial for over 300 processes in your body — from energy production and muscle recovery, to sleep quality and stress response. Yet most Americans don’t get enough. In fact, in a peer-reviewed clinical trial published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, more than 75% of participants showed suboptimal magnesium levels before the study began.

For sleep and recovery, Jigsaw MagSoothe® delivers! In a 4-week clinical trial, participants saw a 17% improvement in sleep quality, felt 34% less stressed, and rated their satisfaction 85 out of 100. 82% said they’d buy it again.
