Weekly meal deliveries ease hunger and depression in opioid recovery

NCT ID NCT06374303

Summary

This study tested whether delivering weekly meals could help people with opioid addiction who struggle to get enough food. Fifty adults in treatment were split into two groups: one got nutrition advice and resource lists, the other got the same advice plus 12 weeks of meal deliveries. The group receiving meals showed significant improvements in having enough food, reported less depression, and had better quality of life scores.
