Optimal Balance Maintenance - 5

What Does It Mean?

Optimal Balance Maintenance - 5 is a functional medicine protocol designed to support immune function, reduce inflammation, enhance mitochondrial health, and promote hormonal balance. This approach targets underlying physiological imbalances that contribute to chronic fatigue, oxidative stress, gut dysbiosis, and metabolic dysfunction. The goal is to optimize overall wellness and long-term health through targeted supplementation.

How Did We Get There?

Root Causes

• Oxidative Stress & Inflammation – Chronic inflammation leads to cellular dysfunction and immune imbalances.

• Nutrient Deficiencies – Deficiencies in key antioxidants and mitochondrial support nutrients impair energy production.

• Hormonal Imbalances – Dysregulation of estrogen metabolism, stress hormones, and mitochondrial function contribute to systemic dysfunction.

• Gut Microbiome Imbalance – A disrupted microbiome weakens immune function and metabolic processes.

• Mitochondrial Dysfunction – Impaired ATP production leads to fatigue, poor recovery, and metabolic inefficiencies.

Signs & Symptoms

• Chronic fatigue and low energy levels

• Increased oxidative stress and inflammatory markers

• Poor immune resilience and frequent infections

• Hormonal imbalances affecting mood, metabolism, and cognition

• Gastrointestinal discomfort and irregular digestion

Diagnostic Criteria

Assessment includes evaluating inflammation markers, mitochondrial function, and hormonal balance.

How Do We Treat It?

Functional Medicine Approach

The treatment strategy focuses on reducing oxidative stress, supporting immune function, balancing hormones, and optimizing mitochondrial function.

Supplement Protocol

Supplement	Function	Dosage & Frequency
Vita-Glutathione	Acts as a master antioxidant to neutralize free radicals and support detoxification.	1 capsule with or without food, daily
Vita DIM	Supports proper estrogen metabolism, reducing hormonal imbalances and oxidative stress.	2 capsules with or without food,  daily
Vita-Biotic	Delivers high-dose probiotics to restore gut microbiome balance and enhance immune function.	4 capsule without food, daily
V-Pax	Supplies mitochondrial cofactors and adaptogenic botanicals to support energy metabolism and stress resilience.	2  capsules with food, twice daily
Vita B Methyl	Provides methylated B vitamins essential for cellular energy, detoxification, and neurotransmitter function.	1 capsule without food, daily

Additional Lifestyle Interventions:

• Anti-Inflammatory Diet – Incorporate nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich foods while reducing inflammatory triggers.

• Stress Management – Implement relaxation techniques such as breathwork, meditation, or yoga to regulate cortisol.

• Gut Health Optimization – Support digestion with prebiotics, fiber, and fermented foods.

• Exercise & Detoxification – Engage in regular physical activity and proper hydration to enhance detox pathways.
