Hepato Micro Reset

Purpose Hepato-Micro Reset™ targets the functional bottleneck between detoxification and metabolism — the “clogged-drain” state where bile, microbial debris, and oxidative stress accumulate faster than they can clear. This phase focuses on restoring drainage and metabolic flow, not forcing detox. How It Works Reactivates bile flow with taurine, glycine, and phosphatidylcholine to reopen hepatic-biliary communication. Clears microbial terrain with gentle botanicals (berberine, garlic, gentian, goldenseal, Artemisia annua). Supports conjugation and methylation through betaine, trimethylglycine, and molybdenum. Binds and escorts debris with activated charcoal, clays, humic/fulvic acids, chlorella, and broccoli sprout. Protects cellular energy using creatine and osmolytes to maintain ATP during clearance. When to Use Initiate Hepato-Micro Reset™ as the first step in cases showing: Elevated GGT, mild ALP imbalance, or signs of bile stagnation. Functional hyper-eosinophilia or basophil activity suggesting microbial or yeast terrain. Fatigue, weight-loss resistance, or poor fasting response. History of “feeling worse” on generic cleanses or fasting protocols. Typical duration: 3–4 weeks, until bowel, urine, and energy patterns stabilize and markers indicate improved flow. Synergistic Supports Phase II Conjugation Glycine • Taurine • N-acetyl-cysteine • Riboflavin-5-P Bile Fluidity Phosphatidylcholine • Bitters (gentian, dandelion) Antimicrobial Rotation Berberine • Oregano • Olive Leaf (pulse cycles 5 days on / 2 off) Binders / Drainage Activated Charcoal • Bentonite Clay • Fulvic / Humic Acids Electrolyte Balance Sodium–Potassium–Magnesium ratio (ATPade-style support) “This phase isn’t about pushing detox — it’s about reopening the drain so the body can finish its own cleanup.” When an individual responds to Hepato-Micro Reset™ or shows improvement yet lingering fatigue, histamine sensitivity, or weight-loss resistance, it often indicates that the original congestion was only a surface sign of deeper imbalances. This pattern is frequently linked to fungal or mixed microbial terrain stress, where detoxification and metabolic signaling were out of sync rather than truly deficient. For that reason, Hepato-Micro Reset™ is typically followed by two strategic steps: Microbiome Mini Reset (Phase 2) – rebuilds and stabilizes commensal flora after antimicrobial clearing, reinforces mucosal immunity, and re-anchors short-chain fatty acid production. T argeted Candida / SPM Integration Phase (Phase 3) – employs focused antifungal nutrients or botanicals after bile flow and conjugation are restored, then later layer in Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators (SPMs) to complete immune and metabolic resolution. Together, these follow-up phases address the underlying microbial-fungal terrain while synchronizing detoxification with metabolic repair. “When drainage improves but vitality lags, it’s a clue — not a failure. The Hepato-Micro Reset™ has opened the channel; now it’s time to repopulate and resolve.”

Systemic Candida Reset

Core Concepts Disrupt Biofilms: Use NAC and proteolytic enzymes (nattokinase, serratiopeptidase, rutin) to break down protective barriers that shield Candida and opportunistic bacteria. Target Candida: Undecylenic acid, berberine, pau d’arco, caprylic oil, and polyphenols directly inhibit Candida growth and prevent its yeast-to-hyphae transition. Bind & Clear Toxins: Zeolite, charcoal, pectin, aloe, and humic substances bind acetaldehyde, arabinitol, LPS, and other die-off toxins for safer clearance. Support Circulation & Penetration: Cayenne increases warmth, vascular flow, and antifungal penetration into tissues. Rebuild Flora & Terrain: Multi-strain probiotics (Synb), Saccharomyces boulardii, and PHGG restore microbial balance, reinforce SIgA, and feed keystone species (Akkermansia, Roseburia, Faecalibacterium). Calm Inflammasomes: Polyphenols (pomegranate, grape seed, green tea, resveratrol) reduce NLRP3/IL-1β/IL-18 signaling, protecting mitochondria and reducing stiffness. Protocol Structure (4–6 Weeks) Do NOT do beyond 8 weeks) Weeks 1 (Priming & Gentle Start): Begin NAC, enzymes, binder, and Thercand at lower doses. Introduce probiotics (Synb, S. boulardii) at night to repopulate as opportunists weaken. Polyphenols and cayenne support circulation and keystone feeding. Binder daily to capture die-off. Weeks 2– 4 (Full Kill Phase): Thercand 2–3x/day as tolerated. NAC and enzymes 2–3x/day to aggressively disrupt biofilms. Continue probiotics, polyphenols, cayenne, and binder. Weeks 5–6 (Transition): Maintain full antifungal support. Continue probiotics, polyphenols, cayenne. Reduce binder to 2–3x/week.

Microbiome Transition

Designed as the bridge between the Dysbiosis & Parasite Reset (Phase 1) and the Candida Terrain Reset (Phase 3) , this phase focuses on reseeding and stabilizing the microbiome while keeping Candida under steady pressure. A high-potency probiotic blend (Lacto/Bifido strains with built-in pomegranate polyphenols) supports microbial diversity, feeds keystone species (Akkermansia, Roseburia, Faecalibacterium), and supports mucosal immunity. A robust amount of Saccharomyces boulardii is added to directly compete with Candida and boost SIgA, providing antifungal activity without overwhelming die-off. NAC continues at a moderate dose (500-1000 mg/day) to prevent biofilm resealing, while a gentle binder can be used as needed to mop up byproducts. This reset phase strengthens the terrain, reduces rebound risk, and prepares the gut-immune system for the targeted antifungal work of Phase 3.

Dysbiosis & Parasite Reset

This 4-5 week multi-strategy focusing on reducing Blastocystis hominis and opportunistic bacteria (Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Morganella, Enterococcus, Strep, Staph) using a broad-spectrum antimicrobial formula, while preserving keystone flora. Biofilm enzymes (nattokinase, serratiopeptidase, rutin) and NAC are layered in to open microbial biofilms, improving penetration and reducing inflammation. Polyphenols and cayenne support circulation, inflammasome balance, and keystone feeding. This phase sets the stage for Systemic Candida Reset by softening biofilms and reducing microbial competition. Gentle antifungal overlap from berberine, garlic, NAC, and polyphenols ensures Candida is kept under pressure, preventing rebound as you transition into the probiotic and antifungal phases. Following the initial antimicrobial clearing, this phase focuses on reseeding and stabilizing the microbiome. High-dose multi-strain probiotics (Synb) and Saccharomyces boulardii are paired with PHGG and polyphenols (pomegranate, grape seed, green tea) to feed keystone species (Akkermansia, Roseburia, Faecalibacterium) and strengthen mucosal immunity (SIgA). NAC continues at a moderate dose to keep biofilms open, while gentle antifungal overlap (coconut oil, horopito, berberine carryover) prevents Candida from regrouping. This prepares the terrain for a more intensive Systemic Candida Reset , Phase 3.
