Nutrition in Drug Rehab

Treatment for alcohol or drug addiction would not be balanced without proper nutrition. At Cirque Lodge, we provide a nutrition regimen as an aspect of each drug rehab program. Nutrition is essential in overcoming addiction. Many cases of addiction show a denial of nutrition in the diet because of the increase of the addictive substance. The residents of our addiction treatment facility enjoy three nutritious meals a day as well as nutritious snacks throughout the day. This helps to promote the health and wellness of the alcohol and drug rehab program.

Addiction has no regard for what it is doing to the body. An alcohol or drug addiction can result in a lack of nutrition or even eating at all for that matter. It is not strange to see our clients undernourished when they enter the drug rehab program. A purpose of the nutrition program is to reintroduce regular and nutritious eating to those suffering from addiction; making it possible to increase the health and wellness of the client. It also allows the client to put something into their body that revitalizes instead of destroys, like substances of abuse do.

Chefs at Cirque Lodge

The nutrition experience at Cirque Lodge is prepared by our chefs. Our dedicated cooking staff makes nutritious, well balanced meals for our residents to enjoy. Our chefs are comprised of culinary school graduates and are chefs with experience in the culinary arts. They create delicious meal plans made of healthy and fresh products. The chefs also prepare meals from the vegetables raised in the organic garden. Our dedicated cooking staff will work to make the nutrition experience an enjoyable part of the drug rehab program.

To ensure that the nutrition experience works for each resident, we can personalize meals to meet specialized dietary needs. With proper notice regarding specialty diets and meals, our kitchen staff can prepare personalized meals to meet the dietary needs of each resident. This is to make the experience at the Cirque Lodge addiction treatment facility more enjoyable. Our clients focus should be on receiving treatment and getting better, not being concerned with what they are being fed. With proper notice our chefs are happy to provide for specialized diets.

Open Kitchen Elements

At Cirque Lodge, we have an open kitchen policy. We do offer three square meals a day, but sometimes a snack or a drink is needed to get the client through. The open kitchen policy allows our clients to grab a snack or drink whenever they need one. A reason for this is also so that our drug rehab clients can feel comfortable, like home. At home there are no restrictions on whether you can grab a drink or not. At our addiction treatment facility we feel along those same lines. So there are always snacks and fruits and drinks available for our clients when they are hungry.

Health, Wellness and Nutrition

The nutrition and exercise aspects are to help the client with their health and wellness. Addiction can destroy a person physically. It can make insomuch as even walking difficult. A balance of nutrition and exercise can greatly help the physical well being of the client. At Cirque Lodge, we want to provide complete recovery from alcohol or drug addiction. This means a physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual change. The nutrition and exercise elements of the Cirque Lodge drug rehab program strongly affect the physical element of complete recovery. When incorporated with treatment and the experiential program, Cirque Lodge offers a well rounded and effective addiction treatment program. We are nationally recognized as one of the leading drug rehab facilities by many drug treatment professionals and interventionists.
