The products in Phase 1 deliver key nutrients for supporting mitochondrial health and establishing healthy drainage pathways — both of which are essential before entering periods of detoxification.* This also helps minimize unwanted reactions and encourages sustained energy as your patient moves through the protocol.
Phase 1 consists of BC-ATP, BioToxin Binder, CT-Minerals, and KL Support.* BC-ATP assists the body with ATP production, while CT-Minerals supports mental clarity, immune function, cellular repair, and detoxification.* KL Support helps maintain kidney and liver function.* BioToxin Binder lends increased support to the gut microbiome, which in turn aids healthy digestion and immune function.*
Formulated with Carbon TechnologyCarbon Technology is a proprietary blend of fulvic acids and polysaccharides that support cellular repair and the body’s natural ability to detoxify.* With a low pH, Carbon Technology also helps protect ingredients from being digested by stomach acid, so that they remain intact as they enter the desired location in the body.
All of our supplements are formulated with Carbon Technology, with the exception of Para 1, Para 3, and the IS-line.
Phase 1: Energy and Drainage
Advanced TUDCA and Bowel Mover were previously included in this phase. Why were they removed?
Recently, small modifications have been made to our protocols to make them more effective, better tolerated, and highly customizable.
In clinical practice, we noted that Advanced TUDCA could contribute to increased fatigue and other symptoms in some people, and was better tolerated in Phases 2, 3, and 4. For this reason, Advanced TUDCA is now included in Phase 2 of the Comprehensive Protocol.
Bowel Mover is now a protocol add-on and not included in any step or phase, taking into consideration that not every patient will require additional digestive support.
Can the supplements in Phase 1 cause or worsen existing symptoms?
Since all of the supplements in this phase support the body’s natural detoxification processes, it’s possible to experience mild detox symptoms, such as bloating, fatigue, constipation, headaches, or gas.* This will depend on an individual’s toxic load and varies from person to person.
If a patient/client experiences excess reactions, we recommend introducing one supplement at a time (and starting with a half dose) in the order listed on the dosing chart.
Do any of the supplements interact with medication?
Always consult a licensed healthcare practitioner when introducing a new supplement. As a general guideline, it’s recommended to take all supplements at least two hours away from prescription medications.
Do the supplements have to be taken with food, or can they be taken without?
All of the other supplements in this phase are recommended to take between meals for maximum potency. However, if patients are sensitive to any of the ingredients, they can take them with meals.
What’s the difference between the Comprehensive Protocol and the Foundational Protocol?
The Comprehensive Protocol is an in-depth approach to supporting detoxification, intended for those who are looking to address their health at the root level and require increased immune and gut support.* Completing the protocol over a prolonged period (9+ months) provides the body with sufficient time (and nutrients) to support system balance through detoxification.*The Foundational Protocol is a shorter, four-month approach to supporting detoxification.
It’s intended for individuals who are looking to periodically support cleansing for an overall wellness boost.* It also helps to balance the gut microbiome, increase energy levels, and aid in digestive and immune health — but is not as extensive as the Comprehensive Protocol, which covers more specific areas of health.*
