What is the Gut Healing Protocol?

Our Gut Healing Protocol is a comprehensive three-phase approach designed to restore optimal digestive function and support nervous system regulation. We recognize that gut health is fundamental to overall wellbeing, with the gut-brain connection influencing everything from mood to immune function.

The Three Phases of Our Protocol

Phase 1: Remove

The first step focuses on eliminating harmful elements that contribute to gut inflammation and imbalance:

  • Antimicrobial herbs administered twice daily to address pathogenic bacteria
  • Optional pharmaceutical-grade anti-parasitic treatment when needed
  • Removal of inflammatory foods (gluten, dairy, soy, corn, refined sugar, seed oils)

Phase 2: Repair

Once harmful elements are being addressed, we focus on healing the intestinal lining:

  • L-glutamine supplementation to fuel intestinal cell repair
  • Bone broths rich in collagen and healing amino acids
  • Restore Ion to support tight junction integrity
  • Zinc carnosine and aloe vera to soothe and heal gut tissues

Phase 3: Repopulate

The final phase establishes a healthy, diverse microbiome for long-term gut health:

  • Prebiotic foods like green plantain to feed beneficial bacteria
  • Polyphenol-rich foods including pomegranate and berries
  • Specific probiotics, including L. reuteri which supports mood regulation
  • Careful introduction of fermented foods

What to Expect

Throughout the protocol, guests typically experience:

  • Initial adjustment period, possibly with mild detox symptoms
  • Gradual improvements in digestion and reduced bloating
  • More stable energy levels and mental clarity
  • Improved mood as the gut-brain connection strengthens

While significant improvements often occur during the retreat, continuing the practices at home for 3-6 months yields the most comprehensive results.

Our protocol is personalized to your needs and includes education on maintaining gut health after your stay. By addressing this critical foundation, we help create the conditions for your nervous system to find balance and regulation.
