Welcome to Real Food Recovery, a podcast created by a lifelong processed food addict with over 40 years of addiction (and recovery). Paige Alexander uses her Real Food Recovery podcast and social media channels to share her struggles, lessons learned, tools, tips, and resources that freed her from decades of food addiction, obsession, and loss.

Join Paige for a powerful conversation on everything she wished she'd known sooner about ultra-processed food use disorder and food addiction recovery. In this episode, she uncovers the biggest myths and lies diet culture has told us, dive deep into emotional hunger vs. real cravings, and explore how ultra-processed foods impact our relationships, mental health, and overall well-being.

If you're ready to break free from food obsession and find lasting food freedom, this episode is the perfect place to start—or to reignite your motivation on the journey. Discover how healing begins when you nourish your body with real, single-ingredient, non-processed foods and reconnect with your authentic self.

Join us as we welcome Coach Darla Nelson, author of the book, I'm Fine, Really. Darla shares her own journey of healing and how faith and spirituality helped her move from hiding pain to living in freedom. If you've ever felt like food was filling a deeper void—or wondered how spirituality could become a source of strength in your recovery—you're going to love this conversation. You can find Darla's book at Coachdarlanelson.com/book or on Amazon. You can also find her on IG @Coachdarlanelson
