ADDICTS AND DIET
Re: InSite Works, Anne Mullens, July 28.
It seems that diet and exercise is carefully left out of treatments
for drug addicts. A recent study from France states that giving iron
supplements to people with ADHD has the same results as Ritalin. Why
not insist that drug addicts be given dietary counselling, and then
supply vitamins and minerals along with clean needles?
