From Fibromyalgia to Feeling Fantastic

In the description

In this consultation review, Jackson sat down with longtime Purser Wellness patient Lois Schweigert to go over her latest intracellular micronutrient (CMA) test results. After years of dealing with fibromyalgia, pain, gut issues, and inconsistent energy, Lois has made remarkable progress. Her newest CMA shows ZERO deficiencies — her best results ever — and it perfectly matches how great she’s been feeling. We discuss: • Her consistent weight training and dramatically improved recovery (thanks to catalase!) • Key optimization tweaks: amino acids, omega-3s, chromium, inositol, and glutathione • Blood sugar stability • Sleep support and overnight recovery • How trauma & stress affect your nutrient levels • Why intracellular testing is so unique and powerful If you’re dealing with chronic symptoms, poor workout recovery, or just want to optimize your health, this conversation is packed with practical insights from real patient results. 👉 Ready to get your own CMA?

Defeat Inflammation with Super Antioxidants?

In the description

Superoxide Dismutase 3 (SOD 3), also known as extracellular SOD or ubiquitous SOD, plays a critical role in your body’s defense against inflammation and oxidative stress. Here’s why it matters: Stabilizes Mast Cells SOD 3 helps suppress mast cell activation, reducing the release of inflammatory mediators that contribute to conditions like skin inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, and chronic pain. Reduces Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines By inhibiting cytokines like TNF-Alpha, SOD 3 can help soothe inflammation at its source. Supports Healthy Joints and Blood Vessels Whether you have joint disc

Remove inflammation by combatting High Homocysteine

In the description

High homocysteine levels can lead to inflammation, joint and muscle pain, and even shifting pain throughout the body. It’s also linked to birth defects and chronic kidney failure, and can raise blood pressure. Six genetic SNPs (like MTR, MTRR, and CBS) and MTHFR mutations (like C677T) can prevent homocysteine from converting into glutathione, which is essential for keeping inflammation in check. Plus, 12 vitamin deficiencies may temporarily raise homocysteine levels, so addressing these deficiencies is key.
