In this consultation review, Jackson sat down with longtime Purser Wellness patient Lois Schweigert to go over her latest intracellular micronutrient (CMA) test results.
After years of dealing with fibromyalgia, pain, gut issues, and inconsistent energy, Lois has made remarkable progress. Her newest CMA shows ZERO deficiencies — her best results ever — and it perfectly matches how great she’s been feeling.
We discuss:
• Her consistent weight training and dramatically improved recovery (thanks to catalase!)
• Key optimization tweaks: amino acids, omega-3s, chromium, inositol, and glutathione
• Blood sugar stability
• Sleep support and overnight recovery
• How trauma & stress affect your nutrient levels
• Why intracellular testing is so unique and powerful
If you’re dealing with chronic symptoms, poor workout recovery, or just want to optimize your health, this conversation is packed with practical insights from real patient results.

Superoxide Dismutase 3 (SOD 3), also known as extracellular SOD or ubiquitous SOD, plays a critical role in your body’s defense against inflammation and oxidative stress. Here’s why it matters: Stabilizes Mast Cells SOD 3 helps suppress mast cell activation, reducing the release of inflammatory mediators that contribute to conditions like skin inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, and chronic pain. Reduces Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines By inhibiting cytokines like TNF-Alpha, SOD 3 can help soothe inflammation at its source. Supports Healthy Joints and Blood Vessels Whether you have joint disc
