Dr. Janea was diagnosed with a rare genetic type of diabetes at a young age, which led to her introduction to naturopathic medicine. Through that experience, she learned how important proper nutrition and exercise is for the body. It also fuelled her passion to become a Naturopathic Doctor.
Just a week after she graduated, Dr. Janea gave birth to her first son. She wrote national and provincial board exams to become a licensed Naturopathic Doctor just three weeks later! For the next five years, her family of three moved around the world—including Russia, Kazakhstan, and Sweden—before moving back home to Saskatoon where her second son was born. During this time, she expanded her knowledge about gut health, mental health, pregnancy, postpartum, and children’s health, both from personal experience and continuing medical education.
