  • Healing the Addicted Brain: Nutrition, Cravings, and Recovery Science with Dr. Brooke Scheller S02E31

    Healing the Addicted Brain: Nutrition, Cravings, and Recovery Science with Dr. Brooke Scheller S02E31
    2026/05/01

    In this episode of Power Up Recovery with Nutrition, Christina Veselak sits down with Dr. Brooke Scheller, a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition and leading voice in functional sobriety.

    Dr. Scheller shares her personal journey with alcohol and how it led her to uncover a powerful truth: cravings, mood swings, and relapse are often rooted in brain chemistry and nutrient imbalances — not just behavior or willpower.

    Together, Christina and Dr. Scheller explore how nutrition directly impacts neurotransmitters, blood sugar, gut health, and hormone balance, and why these are critical foundations for sustainable recovery. They break down how simple shifts—like increasing protein intake, stabilizing blood sugar, and addressing nutrient deficiencies—can significantly reduce cravings and improve emotional resilience.

    This conversation challenges traditional recovery models and introduces a more biochemical, root-cause approach to healing the brain and body.

    Key Topics Covered
    • Why cravings are biochemical—not just emotional
    • The connection between blood sugar and alcohol cravings
    • How protein and amino acids support brain chemistry
    • The role of gut health in mood and recovery
    • Nutrient deficiencies that impact anxiety, depression, and relapse
    • Why "missing a meal" can trigger cravings
    • Functional Sobriety and personalized nutrition strategies
    Meet Our Guest

  • Omega-3 Index, Brain Health & Depression: EPA vs DHA Explained with Dr. William S. Harris

    Omega-3 Index, Brain Health & Depression: EPA vs DHA Explained with Dr. William S. Harris
    2026/04/10
    In this episode of Power Up Recovery with Nutrition, Christina Veselak sits down with Dr. Bill Harris, a leading expert in nutritional biochemistry and founder of the Omega-3 Index, to explore how omega-3 fatty acids impact brain health, mental health, and long-term recovery. Dr. Harris explains the science behind EPA and DHA, the importance of measuring omega-3 levels through the Omega-3 Index, and why this simple blood test can be a powerful predictor of health outcomes including depression, inflammation, heart disease, and even suicide risk. They dive into: • What the Omega-3 Index is and why it matters • The difference between EPA and DHA for brain function • Omega-3 deficiency and its link to mental health challenges • Optimal omega-3 intake for maintenance vs therapeutic use • Why the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio may be misleading • The role of inflammation in depression and recovery • Real-world cases of high-dose omega-3s in brain injury recovery Meet Our Guest William Harris holds a PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry from the University of Minnesota. Since 1980, his research has focused on omega-3 fatty acids. He has been the principal investigator on 8 omega-3 related NIH grants and has over 360 omega-3-related publications. In 2004, he developed the "Omega-3 Index", a blood test to assess EPA+DHA status that can be performed on dried blood spots. In 2008 he founded OmegaQuant Analytics, LLC in Sioux Falls, SD to offer the test to researchers, healthcare providers and consumers. He has been elected a Fellow of the American Heart Association, the National Lipid Association, and the American Society of Nutrition. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Medicine at the Sanford School of Medicine, University of South Dakota; President of OmegaQuant Analytics, and the founder of the Fatty Acid Research Institute (2020). His scientific impact was ranked among the top 2% in a recent survey of scientists worldwide. To Connect: Facebook: @Omega3Index Instagram: @OmegaQuant YouTube: @OmegaQuantLab Omegaquant.com (OmegaQuant) Fareinst.org (Fatty Acid Research Institute) 5 Practical Takeaways 1. Test your Omega-3 levels Use the Omega-3 Index to know where you actually stand. 2. Aim for at least 8% This is the target range linked to better brain and overall health. 3. Most people need more Omega-3s A daily intake of 1,500–2,000 mg EPA + DHA is a good starting point. 4. EPA + DHA both matter EPA supports mood and inflammation, while DHA supports brain structure. 5. Consistency is key Long-term intake matters more than occasional supplementation.

    How Nutrition, Detox & Gut Healing Rebuild Your Brain with Suzanne Roth-Paul S02E29
    2026/03/25
    In this episode of Power Up Recovery with Nutrition, Christina Veselak sits down with Suzanne Roth Paul, a Primal Health Coach and wellness educator who transformed her life after decades of chronic illness, brain fog, and emotional instability. Suzanne shares her deeply personal journey of navigating autoimmune challenges, toxin exposure, gut dysfunction, and nutrient depletion — and how discovering root-cause healing through nutrition, detoxification, and lifestyle changes helped her reclaim her health and mental clarity. Together, Christina and Suzanne explore how brain fog, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm are often driven by hidden imbalances such as pyroluria, poor gut health, environmental toxins, and nutrient deficiencies. They also highlight the powerful role of food, hydration, sleep, and daily detox practices in restoring the brain and body. This conversation brings together real-life experience, practical strategies, and hope — showing that you are not broken, and that true healing begins with what you put into your body.

After silently battling an autoimmune condition since birth, Suzanne spent over two decades learning how to heal her body naturally. Her journey led her to uncover the deep connection between emotional pain, physical symptoms, and environmental toxins. Today, she helps individuals break free from confusion, chronic symptoms, and unhealthy cycles through her simple yet powerful 3-step protocol. Her work focuses on restoring autonomy and confidence — empowering people to take control of their health and rebuild their lives from the inside out. Through her Power in Your Pantry eGuide and eBook, Suzanne teaches that true healing begins with what we eat and how we live. She believes that many chronic symptoms are not simply signs of aging, but the result of accumulated toxins — and that by supporting cellular health through nutrition and detox, lasting vitality is possible. Her mission is clear: help others avoid the struggles she endured and guide them toward clarity, balance, and radiant health.
