Holistic Sobriety: How Nutrition Shapes Recovery with Chris Bevacqua

Our brains are not fixed, that we have neuroplasticity. That, like you said, the emotional piece. But I can be followed on twitter and instagram, where I talk a lot about all of these things that we've just discussed, and people can follow me there and keep in touch.
Ever thought about how the food you eat can impact your journey to sobriety? In this episode of Rewired Radio, host Erica Spiegelman chats with certified nutritionist and former addiction counselor Chris Bevacqua about the crucial role nutrition plays in recovery. Chris breaks down how properly nourishing your body isn't just about physical health; it can also uplift your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Imagine eating a high-protein diet that not only heals your body but also boosts your mood and memory. Sounds intriguing, right? Chris dives into the nitty-gritty of how specific nutrients can repair the damage caused by years of addiction. He also touches on how emotional distress can be a trigger for relapse and offers practical tips on building new, healthy habits like exercise and fitness to support sobriety. One standout point is the importance of simplicity in meal planning.
Chris suggests that keeping it simple can make it easier to stick to a nutritious diet tailored to your unique needs. But it's not a one-size-fits-all approach. Chris emphasizes individualized nutrition plans and even recommends blood testing to identify any deficiencies you might have. This way, you can create a plan that works best for you. Throughout the episode, you'll gain valuable insights into how small changes in your diet can lead to significant improvements in your overall well-being.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical advice and inspiration to help you on your journey. Tune in to learn how you can use nutrition as a powerful tool in your path to holistic sobriety.
