But sometimes we need some support around getting over those humps.
Ever thought about how what you eat could shape your recovery journey? In this eye-opening episode of 'Options Save Lives', Christina T. Veselak, founder of the Academy for Addiction and Mental Health Nutrition, dives into the critical role nutrition plays in alcohol recovery. Christina breaks down the science behind how food choices affect our brain chemistry and, ultimately, our ability to manage stress and make better decisions.
For example, did you know that low blood sugar can zap your willpower, making it harder to resist cravings? Christina offers practical advice like eating protein-rich meals every four hours and taking amino acids to help rebuild neurotransmitter systems. But it’s not just about the food. Christina also talks about the importance of combining good nutrition with the Sinclair method to desensitize the brain's response to alcohol.
She shares tips on meal planning, bedtime snacks, and keeping protein-packed options handy to keep your recovery on track. This episode is packed with useful information for anyone in recovery or supporting someone who is. Tune in to discover how small changes in your diet can make a big difference in your journey towards a vibrant, alcohol-free life.
