Um, this is a good question. Will the CMA with Redux tell us what we need to take, how much, and show normal or abnormal results? Yeah, it does all those things. It's really cool test, but but you got to take it 100 120 days on some of them. And then you want to repeat it. If it's really bad, I'd repeat it. If it's not so bad and you feel great, most people feel like

incredible at the end of the 100 days, great. Yeah, call me if you need me. Repeat the test. These are t your tendencies. Treat these first from now on. I try and teach you the way. But if it's really bad and then you and then you go, "No, I still feel horrible." Then you've got some deeper problems with uh vitamin deficiencies.

Repeat it again. You know, maybe you went from 14 severe deficiencies down to six and there's six separate ones. Just completely different. It's infuriating for you, but it happens. Yeah. Because you start using different parts of your physiology uh and anatomy and

The Master MTHFR Protocol Dr. Purser Designed

Your local doctor will likely tell you that MTHFR testing and taking an MTHFR Daily supplement is a waste of money. They might even claim it isn't a real medical issue. After 15 years of hearing this pap, I can tell you they are flat-out wrong . Every day that I run into abject medical ignorance—where medicine arrogantly refuses to bend to the hard truth of proven science—I remember Ignaz Semmelweis. Semmelweis died a broken pauper in an asylum, his life destroyed by the conventional doctors of his generation who refused to accept handwashing. Their dismissive attitude today stems not from mal

MTHFR & The Never-Ending Sugar Crash Cycle: Why You’re Always Tired & Craving Sweets

MTHFR & The Never-Ending Sugar Crash Cycle: Why You’re Always Tired & Craving Sweets If you have an MTHFR variant (C677T or A1298C), you may constantly battle fatigue, sugar cravings, and energy crashes — even when you’re “doing everything right.” In this video, we break down exactly why this happens: How MTHFR/methylation issues impair ATP (energy) production at the cellular level Why your body desperately reaches for quick glucose The vicious cycle of blood sugar spikes → insulin crashes → more cravings & fat storage The downstream effects on antioxidants, DNA repair, and overall energy How to finally break the cycle: Targeted supplementation that fills methylation “holes” (what we learned from 15–20k intracellular tests) Why our MTHFR Daily multivitamin was specifically formulated for this The power of CMA intracellular testing Intermittent fasting (12–16 hrs) Fasted cardio (even just a brisk walk) High-protein, real-food diet with minimal processed sugars If you’re tired of the sugar rollercoaster and want stable energy, this is for you.
