Food addiction, ultra processed food recovery, and nervous system regulation are explored in this episode of Real Food Recovery Podcast™. This conversation focuses on nervous system healing, overstimulation, and how reducing ultra processed inputs can support recovery and long term stability.Real Food Recovery Podcast™ was created from a society wrestling with ultra-processed food addiction and the deep exhaustion that comes from feeling trapped in destructive patterns. After decades of obsession, frustration, and starting over, Paige Alexander holds this space to speak honestly about what it takes to heal, offering lived experience, grounded perspective, and practical tools to rebuild a life rooted in peace instead of chaos.In this episode, Paige is joined by Jodi Scott, founder, educator, and nervous system informed wellness advocate, to explore a different approach to recovery, one centered on doing less, not more. This conversation introduces the concept of healing through subtraction: reducing stimulation, removing ultra processed inputs, and creating space for the body to regulate and restore.With a background in health psychology and a foundation in real food and plant based living, Jodi shares how simplifying what we consume, physically and mentally, can have a profound impact on nervous system stability, energy, and long term recovery.  Together, Paige and Jodi discuss how constant input, overstimulation, and modern lifestyle habits can keep the body dysregulated, and what it looks like to step back into a more grounded, sustainable way of living.  If you are feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated, or stuck in cycles that feel difficult to break, this conversation will meet you where you are.Learn more about Jodi Scott and her work at greengoo.com.Questions, stories, or thoughts can be shared anytime at [email protected] and more resources can be found at www.realfoodrecovery4u.com.  Real Food Recovery Podcast™ is an original educational podcast focused on sustainable nutrition, self trust, and recovery aligned living.  © 2026 Paige Alexander All rights reserved.
