You’ve chased root causes—mold, parasites, toxins—but your patients still cycle through protocols. Why? Because root cause isn’t the answer. The real gold lies in the core drivers hiding in plain sight: methylation, mitochondria, and the mucosal barrier—the missing links between temporary fixes and lifelong results.

In today’s episode, we’re tearing apart the “root cause rabbit hole” and rebuilding protocols around what actually shifts chronic cases. Imagine slashing patient overwhelm with simplified plans that target cellular regeneration and gene expression—all while boosting compliance (and your profit margins).

"Rather than finding a protocol for every one of those conditions and having to start over from scratch, why not pay attention to these core drivers and then get on your way?" ~ Mike Rhees

In This Episode:

• The Myth of "Root Cause": Why focusing on single issues misses the bigger picture.
• The Core Drivers: We break down the key elements: methylation, microbiome, mucosal barrier, mitochondria, and minerals. Learn how they all connect and influence each other.
• Simplifying Complexity: Discover how to translate complex science into simple, easy-to-follow protocols for your clients.
• Building Scalable Programs: Learn how to create programs that deliver real results, whether you're working virtually or in person.
