“…Concerning the educational level, the current finding revealed that nearly two-thirds of the substance user (64.9%) completed secondary education. This result was in the same line with Karajibani et al, (2014), who assumed that most addict patients had a medium level of education. Also, Abdel Naem, et al, (2020), indicated that 56% of participants graduated from a preparatory and technical school.…”

“…In fact, binge eating and weight gain were associated with relapse, especially among females [48,49]; and lack of sleep may be bidirectional: drug use causes sleep disturbances and difficulty sleeping causes relapse [50]. Thus, providing person-centered interventions including personal coaching in rehabilitation centers by way of preventing relapse are suggested as essential components in treatment facilities [51,52].…”

“…Effective measures for controlling food intake may include pairing nutritional programs with leisure/vocational activities, to establish healthy eating behavious while simultaneously increasing self-worth through actively working with individuals and identifying skills and vocations effaced during addiction. Further, establishing nutrition educational programs with emphasis on increasing knowledge, and changing attitudes and practices to promote positive nutrition behaviour [26,51] could help preventing relapse [55].…”

Evidence-based models emphasizing on lifestyle behaviours for the treatment of drug use is still in its infancy. The development of multicomponent effective drug use intervention programs as part of health promotion is crucial to decrease risk of relapse. This study aims at exploring the lifestyle practices including dietary intake, physical activity and sleep of people who use drugs undergoing residential rehabilitation treatment in Lebanon with its perceived benefits and pitfalls. A purposive sample of 18 males and 9 females at different stages of recovery from drug use in rehabilitation centers participated in the qualitative discussions. The six phases thematic analysis revealed three themes: chaotic lifestyle, structuredlifestyle, benefits and pitfalls, and suggestions for making rehabilitation a better experience. Participants discussed their chaotic lifestyle during addiction with poor food intake, disrupted sleep and low physical activity moving to a more disciplined routine enforcing normality in lifestyle practices with social and professionlprofessional support. The early phases of treatment were marked with increased food intake and weight gain perceived as a health indicator and the sole divergent from drugs, moving towards more structured meals and efforts to lose weight in later stages. Lack of variety of Physical activity programs taking into consideration the motivational differences among the participants was also highlighted. Measures for improving rehabilitation services in terms of promoting healthy eating behaviours and environmental control were thoroughly addressed. These findings shed the light on the challenges faced in maintaining a healthy lifestyle in rehabilitation centers and the necessities of addressing them to improve the overall rehabilitation experience, prevent relapse and inform the development of future targeted intervention programs tackling all aspects of behavioural changes.

“…These hunger sensations can mimic the craving for opioids, when in fact, they are just hungry (Morley, Levine, Yim, & Lowy, 1983). On the other hand, some individuals may replace their obsession with opioids with that of sweet taste rewards (e.g., donuts), which can result in weight gain (Karajibani et al, 2014). This is often referred to as addiction transfer or addictive switch , whereby an individual trades one compulsive behavior for another (Brunault et al, 2015).…”

The number of Americans seeking treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) continues to increase. However, there are important nutritional implications of having OUD that often get overlooked by drug treatment providers. OUDs can cause metabolic changes, constipation, and weight loss, or lead to a lifestyle that results in inadequate food intake and unhealthy eating patterns. Nutritional factors associated with OUD can also hinder treatment outcomes and recovery. Addiction providers tend to give little attention to the nutritional implications of OUD, and this knowledge is rarely incorporated into treatment plans. The goal of this article, therefore, is to summarize the existing literature on the connection between OUD and nutrition to help guide treatment programs. This article (a) describes the nutritional consequences associated with misusing opioids, (b) discusses the role that nutrition can play in OUD treatment and recovery, (c) summarizes the nutritional implications of medication treatment for OUD, and (d) recommends nutritional interventions that might aid in the treatment of OUD. This article directly fills a gap in the OUD literature and has the potential to serve as a guide for drug treatment providers to make more informed nutritional recommendations to their clients. Treatment programs may wish to consider the issues raised in this paper before launching nutritional programs at their facility.
