Copper is one of the body’s most important minerals in your body — a tiny metal with massive impact. It acts as a cofactor in essential enzymes like SOD1 (superoxide dismutase) that protect your cells from oxidative stress, and even helps

Dr. Purser and Justace discuss how genetics often reveal two major patterns in patients: either serious gut and liver issues like SIBO, pancreatitis, or colitis, or inflammatory problems tied to homocysteine and PEMT mutations. Sometimes pa

Do Your Genes Cause Vitamin Deficiencies? Here’s the Truth. https://danpursermd.substack.com/p/is-it-really-a-vitamin-deficiency?utm_source=youtube

Genetic testing has only been around for about 20 years, since the Human Genome Project made it possible to identify thousands of SNPs (gene variations) linked to disease and health issues. While gene editing with tools like CRISPR may be a

MTHFR is one of the most studied genetic SNPs, with the two main variants being C677T and A1298C. These changes reduce the body’s ability to process folate and make energy, leaving people exhausted and deficient in key nutrients. Specialize

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 te

High homocysteine signals a broken transsulfuration pathway, leaving you unable to detox or convert it into glutathione. This shows up in conditions like PCOS and fibromyalgia, where patients often struggle with inflammation, pain, and even

CMA testing shows what nutrients are inside your cells, not just floating in your blood, giving a true picture of deficiencies. When combined with Redox, it also tracks inflammation markers and oxidative stress—giving a full view of your he

Ever looked at your genetic report and felt overwhelmed by all the “SNPs”? 🧬 These small DNA changes can impact how well your body produces energy, detoxifies, and handles inflammation. Think of them like typos in your genetic recipe—some d
