Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (SUD) frequently overlap clinically and both present a significant challenge for effective management. PTSD and SUD also overlap with shared neurological pathways and pathophysiology in the brain. Clinical studies have demonstrated the usefulness of nutrients in the management of PTSD and SUD, with nutritional medicine representing an important therapy that can support better prevention and treatment plans.
