Three nutrients to help lower your blood pressure: theonine, arginine, and citruline. These three, if you’re deficient in them, may help open and clear arteries and lower blood pressure.
A Natural Approach to Lowering High Blood Pressure Did you know your blood pressure could be out of control without you even knowing? High blood pressure is a major contributor to heart disease, and the months of stress, uncertainty, poor diet and immobility we have all been going through are not helping matters. When the way your blood flows through your body is affected by your habits, vital nutrients and oxygen can’t get to where they are needed in the body. And as the pressure continues to mount, we start to see physical damage in the arteries and organs that can lead to heart disease and
Intracellular testing, or the CMA Cellular Micronutrient Assay, measures over 100 vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants inside your cells—not just in your blood. Unlike serum tests, which show short-term levels, intracellular testing reveals what your cells have been missing over the last 100 days. Low levels can mean weak enzymes, non-functioning proteins, and accelerated aging. By identifying deficiencies and matching them with the correct nutrient forms for your genetics, you can target fatigue, anxiety, depression, and other chronic issues at the root. Get your CMA by calling o
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.

Most people have never heard of homocysteine , yet this small molecule may hold the key to understanding inflammation, cardiovascular disease, neurological problems, and many chronic conditions. For decades, homocysteine was viewed as a toxic substance in the blood. Doctors were taught that lowering it with B-vitamins might reduce heart disease risk. But research results were inconsistent, leaving many physicians unsure whether homocysteine truly mattered. New research and clinical observations are changing that view. We introduce a new framework called the Purser Model , which explains why ho
