Comprehensive Phase 4A: Systemic Detox
Phase 4A promotes cleansing within and beyond the gut. It consists of BC-ATP, CT-Biotic, HM-ET Binder, KL Support, and Para 4.
This phase is designed to target and clean up heavy metals like mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium that can build up in the body over time. The focus is on binding and purging them from tissues, organs, and the brain to restore a natural state of health.
Once you have successfully completed Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3, you should be experiencing many amazing outcomes to your health and healing. Continue to support your body and lymphatic system as you complete the final step for complete systemic detox.
Product FAQs
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 you to take in this phase to optimize your gut health but is only recommended to take for a maximum of 60 days at a 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 been discontinued and replaced in the protocols with BC-ATP, our new stronger mitochondrial support supplement (that’s also typically better tolerated).*
IFC is now a protocol add-on and not included in any step or phase, taking into consideration that not everyone will require additional system balance support.
Can the supplements in Phase 4A cause or worsen existing symptoms?
Since all of the supplements in this phase promote 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 your individual toxic load and varies from person to person.
If you experience 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 supplements in this phase are recommended to take between meals for maximum potency. However, if you are sensitive to any of the ingredients, you can take them with meals.
Is the protocol safe for children or during pregnancy/breastfeeding?
Yes, children can do the protocol. While pregnant or breastfeeding, it’s recommended not to promote periods of deeper cleansing. Instead, consider which individual products or kits could support your needs during these life stages.
For example, BC-ATP and CT-Minerals are gentle formulas that are typically well-tolerated and can be taken individually (outside of the protocol) while pregnant or breastfeeding. For children and women during pregnancy/breastfeeding, we recommend working with a healthcare practitioner closely while taking products.
What’s the difference between the Comprehensive Protocol and the Foundational Protocol?
The Comprehensive Protocol is an intensive 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 promote 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 promote cleansing for an overall wellness boost.* It also helps to balance the gut microbiome, increase energy levels, and optimize digestive and immune health — but is not as extensive as the Comprehensive Protocol, which covers more specific areas of health.*
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.*
