Can the B vitamins you are taking to support energy and methylation eventually make you feel worse?
In this video, Jackson Larkin explains what practitioners often call “overmethylation,” a possible adverse response to supplemental methyl donors such as:
• 5-MTHF or methylfolate
• Methylcobalamin
• Trimethylglycine, also called TMG
• Multiple overlapping methylation formulas
Possible warning signs can include irritability, anxiety, restlessness, insomnia, brain fog, fatigue, and feeling “wired but tired.”
These symptoms do not prove that you are overmethylated. They can have many possible causes. The timing of symptoms, your total supplement exposure, nutrient status, genetics, medications, and health history all need to be considered.
In this video, we discuss:
• Why methylation is essential
• How methyl-donor supplements support the body
• Why the right vitamin can become the wrong dose
• Ingredients to look for on your supplement labels
• Why some people may need lower doses or non-methylated forms
• How genetics and intracellular nutrient testing can guide a more personalized plan
At Purser Wellness, we believe in a Start Low, Go Slow approach. The goal is not to eliminate methylation. The goal is to provide the right form and amount of support for each individual.

Homocysteine is nasty — but here’s the truth no one tells you. It doesn’t kill you directly — it triggers white blood cells to release IL-8 and MCP-1, causing inflammation, kidney failure, heart attacks, and strokes. Most doctors don’t even check it anymore, thinking there’s no fix. But there is. Whether from 17 genetic SNPs or 12 vitamin deficiencies (like B6 or B12), you can address it by supporting your body’s ability to convert homocysteine into glutathione.
If you are low or think you're low in Iron, you HAVE to try Vitamin B12 and Vitamin C to boost your levels. Seeking Health has a great Methyl Free B vitamin complex, and our VARS Vitamin C from PhysicianDesigned.com is your best option for FUNCTIONAL vitamin C. Boost your levels and always remember you can get a CMA Intracellular Test if you want to see your other levels. Reach to my office with any questions. 801-796-7667

Been put on psych meds but still not feeling better? 😟 The real issue might not be a need for Prozac or amitriptyline—it could be a vitamin deficiency like low B12, folate, CoQ10, or lithium. 🧬 Fix the deficiencies first with a CMA with Red
High homocysteine often shows up first as widespread inflammation—pain all over, poor circulation, or even early warning signs of cardiovascular problems like stroke and heart attack. The best way to know for sure is through testing: a blood test can measure homocysteine directly, while a CMA with Redox uncovers the vitamin deficiencies driving it. For genetic causes, the DRP Genetics panel screens 15–16 of the 17 known SNPs that can cause permanently high homocysteine. If your levels are fixed by genetics, reduced glutathione and targeted B vitamins (like MTHFR Daily) are key to balancing the
High homocysteine? It’s not the number—it’s the cytokines it triggers (like IL-8) that cause strokes, kidney failure & inflammation. We found 17 gene SNPs + 12 vitamin deficiencies that drive it—and VARS Glutathione helps shut it down.
