Better Life Summits

With Jamie Morgan Reno

After losing 250 pounds, Jamie is helping recovering processed food addicts

Jamie Morgan Reno

Jamie Morgan Reno is a lifelong, severe processed food addict cursed with a slow metabolism, who, in 2008, lost 250lbs without surgery or pills. Though she sustained a new lease on her body, life and health, she soon found herself trapped in a food prison created by the processed foods and animal products the SAD (standard American diet) industry told her she could, and should, have.

Sick of the professional, societal and familial pressures that came with trying to moderate processed foods while fighting to maintain her newfound health, Jamie finally found food freedom through education and acceptance of processed foods’ effects on her body, mind and spirit. A processed food addict in recovery since 2017, Jamie’s soul led her exactly where she needed to go. Leveraging the research of Drs. Joan Ifland, and Vera Tarman and via Chef AJ’s influence, she quickly found a WFPB and SOFA-free lifestyle that has completely freed her from her addiction. Now, a total of 250lbs lighter, Jamie’s mental and physical health (and her metabolism) have recovered from the numerous negative and life-long effects of processed foods.

A passionate advocate for education and recovery from this insidious condition, Jamie speaks to and works with communities of recovering processed food addicts to share her lessons, tools and resources on how to navigate recovery while living in this disease-promoting, processed food-filled world. She loves to hear the real stories, real struggles and real heartache of other processed food addicts, knowing she also gets to witness their real recovery, too. Jamie is creating a YouTube community that explores how this devastating condition affects every aspect of our lives, bodies, psyches and spirits, and how to recover from it, one choice at a time. She encourages others to rise with her as she uncovers, celebrates and shares what it takes to overcome this life-altering addiction, for real.
