PURSER WELLNESSThyroid Pearls & TipsFrom the reading room

Wow I see all this almost every day in my office -- same exact thyroid related medical issues/complaints. After ten years of endocrinology research and 33 years in practice, I've concluded that a lot of my fellow doctors weren't really taught the nuances of thyroid care. Those include how patients need levels optimized, or how to really listen to patient's symptoms (and treat accordingly), and which labs to get at what time. So, I always tell patients to believe their ‘lying eyes’ (their symptoms are real), and not always the lab results (which can be inaccurate or not interpreted correctly).

PURSER WELLNESSHow Swimming Can Change Your LifeFrom the reading room

Aloha, One of the most important parts of my healthy lifestyle choices I owe all to my mom. She was a high school swim coach and put me in the water when I was only two weeks old. However, my mom’s example goes far beyond just teaching me to swim. My grandma suffered from strokes and had a hard time walking. I can remember my mom and aunts would take my grandma to the pool to re-teach her to walk. It helped with her coordination, balance, and posture. They would walk up and down the pool which showed me how water buoyancy not only benefits our health at any age, but also how it can be used to

Aloha cherished Friends & Guests, Have you heard of copper toxicity? I know I hadn’t until I witnessed a relative have a severe reaction. I was blown away at how quickly it came on and how sick she became. It made me wonder what foods are high in copper and why it causes this type of reaction. I began to wonder if I was also at risk with high copper foods. It is definitely worth it to figure out how to prevent illnesses and live a healthier lifestyle. Now what foods are high in copper? More foods than you would believe have copper! My relative, as I mentioned above, became sick after eating In

PURSER WELLNESSGENOVA™ Neopterin Biopterin Urine Profile for MTHFRFrom the reading room

This test result is bad and could indicate an infection, especially viral. This is a great test for those with A1298C and especially who are Homozygous A1298C. Neopterin is bad while biopterin is good. If neopterin is repeatedly high, the BH4 is low. Neopterin is a sensitive marker of cellular mediated immunity. Reduced levels reflect cellular immunity weakening. Increased neopterin occur with infectious, inflammatory, immune system dysfunction or neoplastic disease evolution.
