Having good physical and mental health depends on the nutrients in your diet, and this is especially true when cleaning up the system from substance abuse. At Les Mariannes, we place great emphasis on what type of meals our clients consume. We only serve the freshest vegetables, fruits and herb smoothies to replenish the vitamins and nutrients that may have been lost through substance addiction. This also helps to re-balance mood and energy levels.
