The Microbiome Revolution: Healing Chronic Conditions Naturally With Dr. Shayne Morris and Mike Rhees

You’ve tried protocols before—detoxes, gut resets, immune boosters—but your patients still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and inflammation. Why? Because most protocols skip a critical first step: clearing out senescent cells.In today’s episode, we’re mapping out the three-phase framework for transforming chronic illness cases. Imagine giving your patients a roadmap that not only reduces symptoms in the first few weeks but also lays the foundation for long-term healing without overwhelming them (or you)."Rest assured. Just start here. Make it simple. Make it easier on you." ~ Mike RheesIn This Episode:The 3-Phase Protocol Framework: Learn the step-by-step process to create progressive healing protocols that build on each otherSenescent Cleanse Explained: Why removing "zombie cells" is the critical first step before addressing core driversQuick-Start Implementation: How to create a simple 30-day program with just three products that cost under $75 wholesaleUpcoming Free Live Trainings:🔥 Core Drivers Blueprint – Simplify protocols using methylation, mitochondria, and mucosal barriers to slash patient dropout rates.📅 April &amp; May – Grab your seat: https://event.foundationalmedinstitute.com/core-drivers🔥 Scalable Supplement Kits – Turn core drivers into $500/month “cell repair” kits patients DIY at home.📅 April &amp; May – Join here: https://event.foundationalmedinstitute.com/supplement-kitsReady to expand beyond the limitations of brick and mortar?

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 RheesIn 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.

What started as Beyond the Diagnosis has evolved, and today, I want to share exactly why.I started this podcast back in 2020 on a whim.

I taught people—patients, practitioners, anyone who would listen—how to look beyond “normal” lab results and actually find the answers hidden inside.Fast forward to today, and things have shifted in a big way. What started as a podcast for everyone ended up attracting practitioners. You guys—the doctors, the health coaches, the wellness experts—kept tuning in, kept asking for more, and it became clear that I could make the biggest impact by helping YOU help more patients.So, with that comes a new name, a new focus, and a new host—someone you’ve already heard from many times before.
