Let’s explore “F9 and factor IX”

GDF5 encodes growth differentiation factor 5, a signaling protein involved in skeletal development, joint formation and cartilage biology. Its name does not mean a SNP measures the ability to build muscle.

KIT encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase that responds to stem cell factor. It participates in blood-cell development and mast-cell biology, making the exact variant and testing context especially important.

TNF encodes tumor necrosis factor, an immune-signaling protein involved in inflammation, host defense and regulation of cell survival. Its name should not be read as proof that a TNF result indicates cancer.

F5 encodes coagulation factor V. The well-characterized Factor V Leiden variant, rs6025, can make factor V less responsive to an anticoagulant control mechanism, increasing susceptibility to venous clots. It does not mean the body cannot make factor V.

TGFB1 encodes transforming growth factor beta 1, which has roles in immune regulation, tissue repair and extracellular-matrix production. Its effects can include both regulation of inflammation and promotion of fibrosis.

Encodes cubilin, part of a receptor system involved in uptake of the intrinsic-factor–B12 complex.

Why are so few people talking about copper when discussing fibromyalgia? Millions struggle with chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, and countless unanswered questions. Yet one nutritional factor continues to fly under the radar for many pe

PURSER WELLNESSGENETIC MUTATION DETECTION AND WHAT THAT MEANS for YOUA conversation with Dr. Purser

CRISPR is in the process of coming up with a treatment to change your genetic mutations. This could mean helping fix the mutations that put you at risk for Alzheimer's disease, macular degeneration, strokes, or Factor V Leiden. Stay on the look out for this very exciting new technology as it advances!

PURSER WELLNESSHeal the Gut by Addressing One Genetic Error?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis: The Missing Link? Did you know there’s a genetic condition, PEMT, that may be a major factor in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis? If you have it, your body struggles to produce phosphatidylcholine, a critical compound for gut and liver health. Research shows supplementing with phosphatidylcholine and glutathione can make a huge difference in managing these conditions.
