You Don’t Need More Supplements — You Need Capacity

Many people are taking a long list of supplements; they’re not under-trying, they’re over-trying.

They’ve tried: vitamins, herbs, binders, probiotics, detox kits, protocols…and they still don’t feel better. So they assume the answer is: “I just haven’t found the right supplement yet.”

But that’s rarely the real problem. The problem is capacity.

What I Mean by “Capacity”

Capacity is your body’s ability to:
• make energy
• move waste
• tolerate input
• recover from stress
• respond to support

When capacity is low:
• supplements make you feel worse
• detox flares symptoms
• food feels triggering
• everything feels “too much”

Not because the supplements are bad —but because your system is already overloaded.

Adding more on top of that doesn’t help, it just adds pressure.

Why More Supplements Often Backfire

If your liver is sluggish, your bowels aren’t moving well, your lymph is stagnant, your minerals are depleted, and your nervous system is stuck in stress mode, then giving your body something new to process simply creates more work than it can handle.
That’s why people say things like:
“I can’t tolerate anything.”
“Detox makes me crash.”
“Even gentle things cause symptoms.”

It’s not weakness, it’s limited capacity.

Building Capacity Comes First

Before pushing detox, the body needs:
• hydration
• minerals
• drainage
• blood sugar stability
• mitochondrial support
• nervous system safety

This is the difference between forcing change vs creating the conditions for change. Detox doesn’t fail because the toxins are too big. It fails because the system is too stressed.

Detox Isn’t a Product — It’s a Process

Real detox isn’t:
a tea
a pill
a 7-day cleanse

It’s a staged process of restoring function so the body can do what it already knows how to do. That’s why in my work, we don’t start with “what to take.” We start with: Is the body ready to handle it?

If You’ve Been Spinning Your Wheels
If you feel like you’ve tried everything, you’re sensitive to supplements, you crash when you detox, and nothing seems to stick, you don’t need a stronger protocol — you need more capacity. That’s what makes everything else work.

A Simple Next Step
If you’re not sure where your body stands right now, I created a short readiness quiz to help you understand whether you’re ready for detox — or whether your body needs preparation first.

I can help you:
• build capacity
• understand your lab patterns
• or guide you through this process safely

But the first step is knowing where your body actually is.
