Everything You Need to Know About Microdosing GLP-1 with Dr. Dean Jones, DC
About this video
Jennifer Woodward interviews Dr. Dean Jones, a chiropractor who leads coaching at a GLP-1 telemedicine practice. Dr. Jones shares his personal 20-year struggle with obesity and describes his clinical approach combining GLP-1 peptides with his “FLO” fasting protocol. He discusses his views on micro-dosing maintenance strategies, peptide stacking (particularly AOD-9604 with GLP-1s), metabolic health markers, and foundational lifestyle interventions including resistance training and dietary approaches.
Key takeaways
- Dr. Jones argues that GLP-1 medications work best as short-term tools combined with lifestyle changes, though he now advocates for long-term micro-dosing maintenance (which he defines as averaging below starter doses when calculated weekly)
- He claims AOD-9604 (a growth hormone fragment) stacked with GLP-1s helps mobilize fat during fasting and may reduce the stress response that some patients experience with extended fasting protocols
- Dr. Jones emphasizes that patients should maintain adequate caloric and protein intake even on GLP-1s to avoid metabolic downregulation, and suggests the ideal dose allows hunger control without completely suppressing appetite
