Title : A holistic approach for addiction recovery
Abstract:
It is estimated by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) that over 40.3 million people in the United States have a substance use disorder causing over 100,000 fatalities per year. Addiction has been a growing issue effecting millions of lives directly or indirectly. Unfortunately, very little has been done in the treatment of addiction using a holistic approach. Substance abuse leads to poor nutrition and poor nutrition leads to more cravings and addictions. Feeding the brain using nutraceuticals, homeopathy, meditation and live-style changes can help balance the brain and reduce the cravings that are usually associated with addiction.
