   Healing Emotional Eating and Food Addiction from the Inside Out | Katy Landis

   Food addiction, emotional eating, ultra processed food patterns, and sustainable recovery are explored in this episode of Real Food Recovery Podcast™ with TEDx speaker and transformational nutrition coach Katy Landis.

This conversation offers grounded insight for anyone feeling trapped in compulsive eating behaviors or exhausted from constantly starting over. Topics include emotional eating, nervous system regulation, trauma and grief, binge eating cycles, stress responses, emotional resilience, sustainable nutrition, self sabotage, food addiction recovery, and rebuilding self trust.

   Nervous System Regulation, Stress & Burnout Recovery | JD Tremblay

   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 sits down with JD Tremblay, integrated engineer, ultra-endurance triathlete, certified naturopath practitioner, and best-selling author, to explore nervous system regulation, stress, and what it really takes to sustain resilience under pressure. With a background in the military, firefighting, and search and rescue, JD brings a lived understanding of how the body and mind respond in high-stress environments. As one of only three people in the world to complete the EpicDeca, JD now focuses on helping people simplify complexity into repeatable systems that support stability, structure, and long-term well-being. Through his work with Hungry Warrior Academy, he teaches how to regulate the nervous system, build sustainable habits, and create consistency without burnout. Together, Paige and JD explore how chronic stress impacts the nervous system, decision-making, emotional regulation, and daily behavior patterns. They also discuss what it looks like to build real resilience, not through intensity or perfection, but through simple, grounded systems that actually hold in real life.  Find more about JD at:  https://hunger4more.com/ (https://hunger4more.com/) and hungrywarrioracademy.com (http://hungrywarrioracademy.com/) If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in cycles of stress, or looking for a more sustainable way to support your mind and body, this conversation will meet you where you are.  Questions, stories, or thoughts can be shared anytime at realfoodrecovery4u@gmail.com, and more resources can be found at www.realfoodrecovery4u.com (http://www.realfoodrecovery4u.com).  © 2026 Paige Alexander — All rights reserved.  Real Food Recovery Podcast™ is an original educational podcast focused on sustainable nutrition, self-trust, and recovery-aligned living.  Unauthorized use, reproduction, or distribution of this content is prohibited.

   Reverse Prediabetes and Boost Energy Naturally | Axay Shah

   Low energy, fatigue, brain fog, and rising blood sugar levels have become so common that many people assume it’s just part of aging, but it doesn’t have to be. In this episode of Real Food Recovery™, Paige Alexander sits down with Axay Shah to explore how whole, natural foods can help reverse prediabetes, restore energy, and support the body the way it was designed to function. After facing a serious decline in energy in his 50s, Axay experienced a wake-up call that led him to completely change his approach to food and health. Now at 66, he shares how he maintains high energy, mental clarity, and endurance, including completing multiple marathons, by returning to simple, natural nutrition. In this conversation, they discuss the root causes of fatigue and brain fog, what it really means to eat “what Mother Nature made,” and the concept of the Five Slow Poisons that silently drain energy over time. They also break down how prediabetes can be reversed without medication, what a typical day of eating looks like for sustained energy, and whether a whole-food or raw approach is realistic in everyday life. You’ll also learn about “energy bankruptcy,” how to recognize it in your own life, the connection between food and long-term vitality, and the single most important shift you can make starting today. If you’re struggling with low energy, blood sugar issues, or feeling disconnected from how your body is meant to function, this episode offers a grounded, practical path forward rooted in simplicity and awareness.
