In this episode of the Health Detective Podcast by Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, host Evan Transue, aka Detective Ev, interviews Dr. Marly Jones, a doctor of naturopathy specializing in brain and central nervous system health.
Marly shares her personal journey of overcoming severe health issues, starting from childhood struggles with infections and mold exposure to a transformative head injury and a battle with Lyme disease. Unable to find adequate relief through conventional means, Marly turned to natural medicine and eventually discovered the power of brain health and neurofeedback. She discusses the life-changing impact of NeuroOptimal neurofeedback, a tool she now uses in her Florida clinic to help clients self-optimize their brains and improve their resilience to stress. Evan and Marly also touch on the importance of fostering curiosity in health professionals and the transformative potential of integrating brain training into wellness practices. Marly emphasizes how flexible and non-invasive NeuroOptimal is, describing it as a tool anyone with a brain can benefit from, whether they're dealing with anxiety, chronic illness, or simply seeking better overall mental health.
