PURSER WELLNESSWater - Lotus LifeFrom the reading room

Aloha friends, Growing up, my mother’s remedy was to always drink more water if I did not feel well. To be honest, I thought the water got to her head as she was a natural swimmer and in the pool every day. Water also was her drink of choice and would be by her side wherever she would go. As I have aged and learned more of the benefits from water, my mother’s obsession with water makes sense as it improves body function, health, and energy. As we are mid-summer, understanding how to stay hydrated is essential to remain healthy and enjoy summer fun. Our bodies are 60% water and consistently bei

Here’s what Dr. Purser had to tell us about some influential times and people in his life- "I grew up in the countryside of Oklahoma and we only had three TV channels (in those days, we had an antenna, no cable), so I watched a lot of M*A*S*H.

PURSER WELLNESSLow Testosterone and Vitamin DeficienciesFrom the reading room

Men, want to know the #1 secret to good sex as we age? Nutrition consiting of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. This covers a lot of ground, but let’s shorten that distance. I see hundreds of men in my practice every year for Hypogonadism (medically low testosterone) with a serum total testosterone level below 400 ng/dl (very severe) creating severe fatigue. Hard to have sex, or even to consider performing, if you are exhausted! Assuming you have no trauma (pituitary, heart, testicles, or penis) and you are noticeably exhausted after sex, or too tired to get going, then it probably is your

PURSER WELLNESSTestosterone for Vaginal Dryness & Muscle Wasting in WomenFrom the reading room

Testosterone is an amazing hormone for women. In men, testosterone is produced mainly in the testes, and in women, it's produced in the ovaries (when working properly) with a small amount made in the adrenal glands. Testosterone is a hormone found commonly in men and less so in women. Testosterone is a sex hormone that plays an important role in the health of both men and women.
