Diet plays an important role in moving from trauma to healing. What we eat directly affects the brain, and ultra processed foods and meat lack the fibre found in plants that supports both mental and physical health. When the gut is harmed, the brain suffers too, leading to issues like anxiety and depression. Junk food stimulates the same reward pathways involved in addiction, increasing the risk of relapse. Appetite and passion arise from the same part of the brain, so mastering appetite strengthens self control in every area. Recovery involves cooperation between God and the individual. Diet is not a means of salvation, but those who love God desire to honour Him with their bodies. Practices like intermittent fasting can slow brain decline and sharpen mental clarity.
