Summary

This pilot study tested whether delivering pre-made meals to the homes of 50 adults with opioid use disorder could improve food insecurity. Participants who received weekly meal deliveries along with nutrition education reported better food security, fewer depression symptoms, and improved quality of life compared to those who only received education. The findings suggest that addressing basic needs like food can support overall health in people recovering from opioid use.
