Why do we relapse? I am not talking about relapsing back to drinking, although I believe this subject can certainly help with that. I am speaking today about nutritional relapse. We have all done this, including me.

Nutritional relapse is where we throw caution to the wind and kinda go for it. That is... knowingly eating the wrong food at exactly the wrong time with the understanding as we are shoveling it in the end consequences.

Why should you listen?  

So over the years, I have gone back and forth on the cases for AUD or the misuse of ethanol and drinking. There are so many roads people go down because of the various information received in the last 100 or so years and the various ways mankind has tried to impede or even eradicate Alcohol Use from Temperance to Disease. 

Nutritional Yeast in Recovery. Yeast. All types of things come to mind. Some are not so pleasant. I want to introduce you or perhaps re-introduce you to one of the greatest friends of folks who want to boost their nutrition and, greater still, to those of your who are in recovery.

You have to admit we are bombarded with tons of dopamine hits per day in every way without a chemical trigger...

You may be lacking Sodium !!

Your electrolytes. You hear about this in many sports commercials or anywhere where you are working out..running...paying the ball and sweating. Simply these are the Minerals that become particles in our blood and other body fluids that carry a positive or negative electrical charge called IONs...

Wow, that is a bold outlandish statement that flies in the face of everything we have been told and taught about recovery. I guess we are in denial we haven't even admitted we have a problem. We all know that's the first step. Why would one say such a thing? If we drink we are doomed to failure in sobriety if we think such a thing. Are we dorn with a defect? Are we out of control and undisciplined with our drinking? You decide. As always after you listen you can visit us at www...
