Beyond Calories: Importance of Nutrition
Most people know that proper nutrition is important, but did you know that proper nutrition is about more than just counting calories? 

Nutrition can affect your mood, hormonal balance, and brain chemistry. 

People working through addiction need to understand that proper meal planning is an important part of recovery. 

David Wiss is a leading voice in the link between nutrition and addiction recovery. 

He discusses how nutrition can help (or hurt) recovery, as well as how food and nutrition affect your mood, energy level, and motivation.
