Nutritional and lifestyle counseling

When we practice self-care, we are investing in our current health for the benefit of our future selves. However, when we are dealing with an addiction or a mental health problem, we must expend a significant amount of energy just to get through the day. As a result, self-care may fall to the bottom of the priority list.

Many people who struggle with addiction or mental health issues are malnourished and deficient in essential vitamins and minerals. There are digestive issues, a weakened immune system, gut imbalance, and nonbacterial inflammation.

At Paracelsus Recovery, we recognize that substance abuse addiction and mental health issues are the results of atrophy in the mind-body relationship, not just in the brain. For example, the human gut is increasingly being recognized as our "second brain." The gut produces neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, both of which have a significant impact on mental health. Restoring healthy bacteria in the intestinal system and removing damaged bacteria are critical for long-term recovery.

Proper nutrition can reduce cravings, promote a healthier attitude, and boost overall wellbeing. We aim to restore your health on a physical, psychological, and cellular level by using nutritional counseling, biochemical restoration, and functional medicine.
