Sometimes our bodies take longer to adjust. If you have Lyme disease, mold exposure, Long COVID, autoimmune conditions, allergies, or know your body reacts strongly to new substances, we suggest you start slowly with Micro-BOOST™ to give your system time to adjust. Here's how . . .
Start Small:
Mix 1/8 tsp of Micro-BOOST™ into 4-6 oz of filtered water and sip over 10-15 minutes.
Listen to Your Body:
Wait 24 hours and see how you feel.
Increase Gradually:
If no detox symptoms appear, add another 1/8 tsp the next day.
Continue Slowly:
Every two days, increase by 1/8 tsp as long as you feel good. Over time, you can work up to 1 oz (1 capful) per day.
If You Feel Detox Symptoms
Important: If you don’t reach 1 oz per day, that’s completely okay. It just means your body is already detoxing efficiently and only needs a small amount
of support.

When you take a detoxifier like humic substances, there's a small chance that you'll experience something called a Herxheimer reaction--a sudden onset of uncomfortable symptoms.
These are reactions to toxins, either from bacterial die-off, or as a result of the release of stored toxins, which are moving through your body for excretion (in the case of certain metals, pesticides, and other harmful compounds).
People who are “sensitive” often know they are, but sometimes it can surprise you when you have a reaction to a new supplement.
Relatively few people will experience detox responses with Micro-BOOST™. We generally seen them in about 5% of people. However, when a detox response reaction does happen, it can be scary. You may think you’re having an allergic reaction to the minerals or that they’ve made you sick.
If you’re one of the "special" people who tends to get detox responses, hopefully the info below can give you some context as to what’s going on with your body.

What is a Herxheimer Reaction?
The Herxheimer reaction was discovered in 1902 by Dr. Karl Herxheimer, a German dermatologist. Dr. Herxheimer was treating patients for syphilis, which is caused by a bacterium. He noticed that some patients would exhibit sudden-onset rashes, fevers, aches, and kidney pain within about two hours of starting treatment.
Research eventually revealed that this response (later named the Herxheimer reaction) happened during a number of other treatments as well—most notably in addressing Lyme disease, E. coli infections, and exposure to toxic mold.
Basically, a Herxheimer reaction happens because your body is detoxing very quickly. When you take something that destroys harmful bacteria, their cell membranes disintegrate and their contents leak into your bloodstream. As the bacteria die, you’re exposed to a sudden and large quantity of bacterial endotoxins, which can cause rash, fever, aches, and other symptoms of the Herxheimer reaction.
Why Does a Herxheimer Reaction Happen?
If you take humic substances (or any other powerful detoxifier) and you get a Herxheimer reaction, you likely have a high toxin load. That sounds scary, but don’t worry! The fact that you’re having a reaction means you’re rapidly detoxing, which is a good thing.
You could be killing off pathogenic gut bacteria like E. coli or addressing the bacteria that cause Lyme’s . It could also be toxin mobilization—as certain heavy metals, pesticides, and other compounds that get stored in the body begin to detox, they can cause sudden, temporary symptoms that are essentially a Herxheimer reaction (although technically, Herxheimer only applies to bacteria).
Another common cause of a Herxheimer-like reaction is detoxing from mold exposure. If you’ve had black mold in your home, you may experience symptoms as you begin to detox.
How to Prevent a Herxheimer Reaction (While Still Detoxing)
If you are someone who is sensitive to detoxification or tends to have reactions when starting new supplements use our Slow Introduction Method above. This method succcessfully removes the potential for uncomfortable responses in most people.
