Nutrition education in addiction treatment
People struggling with an eating disorder may also turn to alcohol or drugs to cope. At Marworth, we have a registered dietician on staff who is experienced with co-ocurring eating disorders and substance abuse.
In addition to recovery support groups, Marworth offers a nutrition-focused educational program to help addicted individuals with an eating disorder start on a road to recovery.
The Marworth Nutrition Education Program focuses on topics such as:
- Substance abuse affects food relationships
- Building balanced meals
- Sugar and recovery
- What type of eater are you?
- Mindful eating
Additionally, our dietician presents a monthly nutrition education seminar for all Marworth patients.
Call Marworth at 800-442-7722 or email marworth@marworth.org to speak with an admissions counselor. You can enroll in a substance use recovery program yourself or refer someone else for treatment. Many people are referred to Marworth by a family member, family doctor, therapist, employer, employee assistance program, insurance provider, clergy, community organization or another drug and alcohol center.
