Lesson 4: The Supplements/Order Supplement Kit
Thousands of clinical hours have gone into selecting the superior quality and interaction of the Gut Thrive formula. They are KEY to implementing our strategy and to your success as a gut health expert. They cannot be substituted with other formulas UNLESS you do a private consult with Dr. Jack Tips to help him ensure the strategy will be executed if you live in a country where you have trouble with customs and bringing in the formulas. These videos help you understand the core foundational supplements, but it's important to note that your clients and patients will follow their specific Gut Thrive Plan Supplement Protocol as you take them through the five steps. Additionally, we have included a complete ingredient list of the supplements in the Inside Your Supplement Kit handout so you know exactly what is in each and every formula and your client and patient does as well. This will help you make substitutions if your client/patient has an allergy/sensitivity to something. Please note after taking over 7,000 people (many highly sensitive) through this program, we have upgraded the formulas and protocols three times to minimize sensitivities.
IMPORTANT NOTE: We are in the process of making the following updates to our supplement kits:
- Probiotic Colonizer 50 will replace ABC when this product runs out of stock in the store
- Probiotic Colonizer 100 will replace MBC
- Organ Harmony will replace Desiccated Liver
Phase 1 of the Supplements
In each of the Gut Thrive Plan Supplement Protocols, you will find a list of the Step 1 supplements for the program. Plan P is the only supplement plan that has additional formulas in Step 1. You will also see Supplement Steps listed in the Program Timeline.
These supplements will help prepare the body for Step 2 - The Pathogen Purge by integrating specific support for your liver, gallbladder, pancreas, stomach, and intestines. Step 1 integrates digestive enzymes that assist with digestion, allowing the body to process food more efficiently and with less work. We are also cleaning up old molecules of inflammation by getting into the intestinal pockets as well as using proteolytic enzymes to target inflammation that is present outside of the GI tract. They work to clean up foreign proteins and process them out via the bowels.
In Step 1, we are working towards improved elimination through supporting the body with Triphala, which is safe and gentle and works by moistening and nourishing the lining of the intestines. This carefully crafted process will lower the set point of inflammation both inside and outside of the digestive system.
It will be up to you, based upon your education and practice level if you’d like to add in Phase I and Phase II liver support during this phase. This will be discussed in the Training Webinars.
Phase 2 and 3 of the Supplements
In Step 2 of each of the Supplement Protocols (The Pathogen Purge), we are interrupting the way the pathogens communicate so they can no longer share their genetic code and replicate. This is a gentle, yet effective approach for ridding pathogens from the body. The power is in both the strategy and the brevity of the purge. It is a 3-week purge plus a Transition Week (4th week) where we take less of the anti-pathogenic supplements as we transition out of this Step. There will be occasions where clients and patients extend the purge, but less than 20% of your clientele should or will need to do this. We will discuss this during the Training Webinar.
In Step 2 of the Supplement Protocol, we dismantle biofilms with Diatomaceous Earth and then use Bentonite Clay to bind to the pathogens, heavy metals and toxins and use Triphala (and LOTS of mineralized water) to move them out of your body. Then, we employ botanicals and herbs to address the pathogens that remain so they may access deep layers of intestinal tissue. We also support the body’s methylation (detoxification) process to keep your clients and patients more comfortable during the elimination. This will keep their moods up and their detoxification pathways open as more than 50% of the population now has the MTHFR genetic mutation.
In Step 3 of the Supplement Protocol, we are re-seeding the gut with good bacteria. We did the weeding in Step 2 and now it's time to plant seeds as well as continue to purge pathogens but with a new strategy! We also use formulas to "heal and seal" the gut which decrease intestinal permeability by rebuilding the mucosal lining.
