Why Choose 4A? Phase 4A promotes cleansing within and beyond the gut. It consists of BC-ATP, CT-Biotic, HM-ET Binder, KL Support, and Para 4. Para 4 helps maintain a balanced gut microbiome with herbs used traditionally to support digestive function and immunity, including celery seed, cordyceps, holy basil, and horsetail. CT-Biotic offers 11 spore-forming and non-spore-forming bacterial strains for increased digestive and detoxification support. HM-ET Binder steps in to promote the body’s natural ability to detoxify in the cells and tissues, while encouraging cellular repair throughout these processes. Patients will continue to take BC-ATP and KL Support in this phase to optimize their mitochondrial health and energy levels, as well as support healthy drainage pathways. Note: After completing Phase 4A, patients will move into Phase 4B, which continues to promote systemic detoxification but without Para 4. This is because Para 4 is a more potent formula and should only be taken for two months at a time. What Is Included? For those who are sensitive, it's recommended to introduce one product at a time. Continue taking CT-Minerals from Phase 3 during this phase, until the bottle is finished. BC-ATP: The highly charged organic acids support metabolism and the ATP cycle in being at peak efficiency. These carbons also assist in the body’s natural detoxification processes and contribute to a balanced gut microbiome. In clinical practice, BC-ATP is generally well-tolerated by sensitive individuals and may help improve protocol tolerance. CT-Biotic: A blend of spore-forming and non-spore-forming bacteria. It includes 11 bacterial strains that are essential for supporting detoxification, digestive function, and immunity. HM-ET Binder: A later-stage binder, HM-ET Binder promotes the body’s natural ability to detoxify in the cells and tissues. It also offers increased support to cellular repair, energy production, immunity, and mitochondrial health, as well as helps protect against life’s everyday stressors. KL Support: Combines herbs and nutrients traditionally used to support kidney and liver health, including beetroot, collinsonia (stoneroot), gynostemma, marshmallow root, milk thistle seed, NAC, and parsley leaf. Para 4: A blend of 11 potent herbs known for supporting digestion, detoxification, and immunity, including celery seed, cordyceps, holy basil, horse tail, noni root, and sarsaparilla. When introducing a new supplement, we recommend beginning with 1 at a time and/or the lowest dose for 2-3 days. As tolerated, increase the dose until you have reached the recommended normal or advanced guidelines. Reduce to a tolerable dosage if adverse effects occur. What Is The Phase 4A Dosing? FAQs: Can this Support Pack be taken with other Support Packs or bundled products? No. Every Support Pack is designed to address specific bodily needs and detoxification strategies. We discourage introducing additional Support Packs or using multiple phase bundles at any one time. Always consult a practitioner if you are looking for advanced strategies to support your unique health goals. 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. Is the protocol safe for children and women during pregnancy/breastfeeding? For children and women during pregnancy/breastfeeding, we recommend working with a healthcare practitioner. Advanced TUDCA, CT-Iodine, IFC, MitoATP, and ViRadChem Binder 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. With the addition of Para 4 to the protocol, we split Phase 4 into two separate phases: Phase 4A and Phase 4B, each lasting a standard of two months. This is because Para 4 is important for patients to take in this phase to optimize their gut health but is only recommended to take for a maximum of 60 days at at time. Advanced TUDCA replaces Para 4 in Phase 4B. Both components of Phase 4 achieve the same goal, which is to promote systemic detoxification. CT-Iodine is included in Phase 4B but not Phase 4A. MitoATP has be discontinued and replaced in protocols with BC-ATP, our new stronger mitochondrial support supplement (that's also typically better tolerated). IFC is now a protocol and not included in any step or phase, taking into consideration that not every patient will require additional system balanced support. Can the supplements in Phase 4A cause or worsen existing symptoms? Since all of the supplements in this step assists in the body's natural detoxification processes, it's possible to experience mild detox symptoms such as bloating, fatigue, constipation, headaches, and gas. This will depend on an individual's toxic load and varies from person to person. If a patient 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 the supplements have to be taken with food, or can they be taken without? All of the other supplements in this step 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. Why are there two components to Phase 4 (Phase 4A and Phase 4B)? To accommodate the appropriate timeline and dosing for Para 4, which should only be taken for a maximum of two months at a time. This is why Para 4 is included in Phase 4A for two months, and removed from Phase 4B. Both components of Phase 4 achieve the same goal, which is to promote systemic detoxification. Prop 65 Concern Warning: Please consult your healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering use for a child. Warning: Consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Our quality control exceeds FDA GMP compliance, which includes requirements to analyze raw materials for heavy metals, microorganisms, and other contaminants. We have undergone multiple FDA inspections, and our facilities are NSF GMP certified and inspected four times per year. Examples of how difficult it can be to meet the Proposition 65 .5 mcg level are for instance, a 4 ounce serving of wine contains 6.8mcg of lead which is almost 14 times higher that allowed by Proposition 65. A 4 ounce serving of raw peach contains 3.4 mcg of lead, almost 7 times the limit. And finally a 4 ounce serving of watermelon has naturally occurring levels of 4.5 mcg of lead, 9 times the accepted limits set by Proposition 65. Read more here.
