Overcoming Addiction Using Nutrition
Episode description
Adam Sud found the will to live by overcoming a drug addiction and surviving an attempted suicide. He credits much of his strength to three things: confronting his demons, reflecting inward, and changing the way he was eating.
On this episode of The Exam Room™ podcast, Adam joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to share his remarkable journey back from the breaking point and the way in which nutrition played a key role in his recovery.
He is now leading the INFINITE Study which examines the effects of a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet on physical and mental health as well as resilience in addiction recovery. In essence, can a healthy diet increase the likelihood that someone will achieve long-term sobriety?
Adam’s own experience offers hope that sobriety and health can be very much intertwined.
Plus, Dr. Neal Barnard offers advice to a listener who wants to go vegan, but whose spouse is not being supportive of the change. He offers the tools that can keep their relationship as healthy as a plant-based diet.
