Welcome to Real Food Recovery, a podcast created by two lifelong processed food addicts with over 100 years of addiction (and recovery) between them. Paige Alexander and Jamie Morgan Reno use their Real Food Recovery podcast and social media channels to share their struggles, lessons learned, tools, tips, and resources that freed them from decades of food addiction, obsession, and loss.     Today we are going to dive into a discussion about the book The Pleasure Trap. The authors, Dr Douglas Lisle, a psychologist and Dr Alan Goldhamer, a chiropractor and health educator, explain how modern food environments hijack our natural instincts, leading us into a cycle of addiction and poor health. Sound familiar? The Pleasure Trap is a fascinating book that delves into the psychology and biology of why we get hooked on unhealthy foods. At its core, the book explains that humans are wired to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy.  This was beneficial for survival in ancient environments where food was scarce and physical effort was necessary. However, in today's world of abundant, highly palatable processed foods, these instincts can lead us astray.   In every Real Food Recovery episode, Paige and Jamie take time to answer viewer questions about processed food addiction, obsession, and recovery, be sure to submit yours on their YouTube Channel or Facebook Page.
