Healthy Daes Naturopathic Medical Center: Daemon Jones, ND

I have been looking for a long time for a group of people whose main view is the interconnection among all the dimensions of a healthy lifestyle and optimizing them together. I am so excited to have found that in the Healthy Daes Naturopathic Center. Dr. Dae fits her programs to you and is always there for personal consultation as are the people who work with her. She gets how hard it can be to have a happy, healthy and balanced lifestyle. She is knowledgeable, patient, and full of ideas and encouragement. I am currently going into the third month of the program and the transformation in my thinking and my everyday life is amazing and exactly what I had hoped for. I do not often give anything my highest rating, but this group is strong, compassionate, and even fun! A++

Dr. Dae is amazing,. I developed frozen shoulder in early 2023, and went to several doctors, including an orthopedic doctor, to figure out what was going on. Both doctors said something to the effect “we don’t know.” I had the chance to talk to Dr. Dae, and she shared with me that frozen shoulder can be a symptom of perimenopause. What a revelation! Thank you, Dr. Dae.

I have struggled with pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, insulin resistance, weight gain, and perimenopause issues for the last 3 years. My regular GP continued to tell me to "eat better and get more exercise" but never got to the root of the problem. When GLP-1's became a way for him to make a little extra money, my GP - the guy who refused to even talk about weight loss medications by the way (except for Medifast, which tastes like you're licking the ground) decided to offer them to his patients. Desperate to get my numbers under control, I paid $1500 for 4 months of shots. I spent the first 8 weeks with no side-effects, that I knew of, the exhaustion I felt was horendous, couldn't work out and then the nausea set in - add the two of those together, the inability to get up and not eat, I was a slug. My GP didn't have a check-in shchedule, and I was not given any advice on how to do the GLP-1 successfully. Which, if you're wondering, I wasn't at first. I didn't lose any weight until my 12th week - right after Dr. Dae and I had our 1st conversation. The first thing she suggested was blood work. Once the bloodwork came back, we had an in depth conversation about what was happening inside my body, making it harder for me to lose weight on the GLP-1. Under her supervision, I started fasting from 8pm until 11am. This helped with the insulin resistance, and just like that - the weight started to come off. I've lost 13 lbs in 20 weeks. Yep, a slow process for sure, but I chalk that up to having a bad start and no guidance. I've started getting up earlier, feeling better, and I now ride my stationary bike everyday (did you know you can make a street bicycle into a stationary bike to save some money and get some exercise?!) and when the weather is right, I take the dog for a walk, sometimes twice a day. My hot-flashes are non-existent as well (hopefully I didn't just jinx myself)! I only have 23 more pounds to lose and to be honest, I would never have figured this out on my own - it's been the partnership I have with Dr. Dae that has made me as successful as I am.
