SUWANEE, GA, December 22, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Nutritional Addiction Mitigation Eating & Drinking (NAMED), a nutritional program that works with addiction withdrawal announces that it has formed a strategic alliance with DecisionPoint, an innovative outpatient treatment facility for individuals and families fighting the disease of addiction. This is the first time ever that NAMED is being used with individuals undergoing outpatient treatment for addiction. DecisionPoint will also conduct beta testing of Named and potentially alpha testing with the objective of bringing this service nationwide.
NAMED was launched with the purpose of bringing nutrition education and a healthy menu to those in recovery. Studies show that nutrition and its effects on the body are often overlooked, underestimating the powerful effect that being properly nourished has on the overall metabolism, organ function and mental health. This is especially true for those overcoming addiction. Under the NAMED program, precise nutritional plans and menus are developed that will keep the body functioning at its optimal level, reducing symptoms and complications of addiction recovery. The program was developed by Dr. Keith Kantor, a bestselling author, internationally renowned PhD in nutritional science, known as the leading expert on using natural foods to mitigate disease in the U.S, and CEO of Named Program LLC. The program is aimed for recovering individual who are undergoing substance abuse recovery in a facility and works in tangent with their programs.
"We are very excited and honored to be working with DecisionPoint in this first of its kind venture in bringing NAMED to those participating in outpatient program," said Dr. Keith Kantor, founder of NAMED. "We are confident that this alliance will contribute to the long-term recovery of many in DecisionPoint's program and the testing we are conducting will be invaluable." "Although Named was always used in conjunction with an inpatient facility, DecisionPoints Outpatient program was so intensive and well monitored, it was the perfect company for our Outpatient Beta testing." "We have also added exercise programs to the Named program for the Outpatient sector, since it was not available as readily as in patient facilities."
"DecisionPoint is excited to be teaming up with Dr. Kantor and NAMED," said Mike Reis, CEO and co-founder of DecisionPoint. "This partnership will be enduring one that will have long-term life affecting consequences for those participating and we are honored to be the first outpatient facility in the nation to offer NAMED to our clients." "After the testing we will maintain the exclusive to use Named for Outpatient programs in Metro Atlanta, giving us an important edge over the competition."

The company was launched by Mike Reis, an author, an inspirational keynote speaker, a master certified executive coach, and a recovery rights advocate. After winning his 35 year battle against alcoholism, Mike felt called to help individuals and families battling addiction. His personal and professional experience makes him uniquely qualified to understand and serve the special needs of our clients which is why he decided to open a different kind of outpatient treatment center. His vision for an innovative program featuring clinical excellence at an exceptional value is known as The DecisionPoint Difference. Mike's son is NFL Super Bowl XLIV hero, champion and former New Orleans Saints safety Chris Reis, who became a part of football history when he recovered the onside kick at the beginning of the second half against the Indianapolis Colts, which is credited for altering the mood--and the course--of the entire game itself. Mike and Chris co-authored the book Recovery of a Lifetime: The Inspirational Journey of a Super Bowl Hero Son and His Father's Battle Against Multiple Addictions. It was that play and the principles of how Chris led his life off the field that inspired Mike to make a recovery of his own.
Jim Kennedy, who serves as the company's Chief Clinical Officer was also co-founder of DecisionPoint. Kennedy has spent over thirty years working with individuals battling addictions while developing and managing outpatient programs.
Developed by Dr. Kantor, a leader in nutritional science, NAMED develops precise nutritional menus for those undergoing substance abuse recovery. The program is the only one in the world that concentrates on not stimulating the opiate receptors or even suppressing them naturally through specially designed menus. This lowers the cravings for the abused drug, increases the success rate and lowers the relapse rate. The program also lowers the inflammation in our bodies, which causes the insulin production mechanism in our bodies to work improperly. Menus are added all the time and research is constantly ongoing to find natural ways to not stimulate or even suppress the opiate receptors plus balance the body's Ph to help prevent inflammation. The system works in a controlled environment in conjunction with conventional methods such as counseling, exercise, meditation, education and amino acid nutritional therapy. The concept behind the NAMED program is to increase the success rate of withdrawal and lower the relapse rate.
Once the patient is released from an addiction facility, they will be given a code so they can enter the website (www.namedprogram.com) and continue to get menus and recipes which will lower the relapse rate. They will also have access to stable alkaline water, which will help balance their Ph and help prevent inflammation, which will also help lower the relapse rate.
