In this episode of Power Up Recovery with Nutrition, host Christina Veselak sits down with Jolene Park, a functional nutritionist, health coach, and leading authority on Gray-Area Drinking. Together, they explore how a functional approach to addiction treatment—focusing on nutrient therapy, brain biochemistry, and holistic healing—can support recovery from alcohol use disorder.

Jolene shares her unique three-legged stool framework, addressing biochemistry, psychosocial factors, and spiritual well-being to create a sustainable path to healing. She also dives into her journey from studying addiction in college to integrating functional nutrition into recovery strategies.
