Dr. Purser was from the graduating class of 1981, Brigham Young University. Dr. Purser graduated from “Old Miss” (the University of Mississippi, School of Medicine) where he completed medical school near the top of his class. Dr. Purser began with a practice in family medicine with an emphasis on geriatrics during the 1980’s. In the late 1990’s, coupled with his prior education and vast experience with aging patients, Dr. Purser continued with in depth medical studies and interests in neurological studies, with an emphasis in pituitary dysfunction, as well as intensive preventive care of the body, and how these inter-relate. With Dr. Purser’s vastly accumulated experience, he’s enjoyed tremendous success with his patients in both his preventive medicine and traumatic brain injury practices since the late 1990’s. Currently his “day job” involves work in a plastic surgery group where he deals with complex wound healing issues. He also consults for, and designs products that you can feel working for a number of nutraceutical companies. Education

When Justace first had CMA testing done, Dr. Purser told him he was malnourished—even though he was a young athlete eating constantly. The results showed real deficiencies that explained why he struggled to gain and maintain weight. After following Dr. Purser’s protocol, he not only put on healthy weight more easily but no longer had to force himself to eat as much. He now encourages others, especially younger people, to get tested early to avoid genetic breakdowns later in life.

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 prepare iron for hemoglobin so oxygen can travel through your blood.
But when copper builds up in the bloodstream instead of entering your cells, things go wrong — think migraines, muscle tenderness, chronic pain, and fatigue.
This often happens when certain genes (like CBS, NAT2, and glutathione-related genes) or low ceruloplasmin activity prevent copper from being properly absorbed and used inside your cells.
That’s why we created Copper Balance — a patented formula with B6, NAC, zinc, and targeted nutrients designed to help your body move copper where it belongs: inside your cells, powering your enzymes and restoring balance.
-> Rebalance your copper. Reclaim your body and energy.

PD 80/20 is a supplement designed to raise three key hormones in women—DHEA, pregnenolone, and testosterone. It’s especially useful for restoring testosterone naturally, though it doesn’t typically resolve vaginal dryness unless paired with other therapies. Safe and effective, it gives women an accessible way to boost hormone balance.

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 patients suffer from both, which can lead to severe long-term complications like cancer, heart attacks, or strokes. While genetics isn’t the full answer, it provides critical insight into why these problems develop and how to intervene early.

Patients often ask if they should stop supplements before an intracellular CMA test, and the answer is no. The test measures nutrient status inside your cells over the last 90–100 days, so stopping vitamins right before won’t change the results. At most, you might skip your dose a few hours before the draw, but it’s not necessary—CMA still provides an accurate snapshot of your nutrient levels while you’re on your current routine.

Torso fat gain in menopause is often linked to low HMB (hydroxy-methylbutyrate), a compound young people naturally make but older women lose. Supplementing with HMB can help rebuild muscle mass, reduce torso fat, and restore body composition over time. Find Nutricost HMB on Amazon.

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 future reality, for now the best way to “work around” your genes is by supplementing with the right vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. That’s exactly what the DRP Genetics test does—focusing on SNPs like MTHFR, PEMT, and others tied to homocysteine, gut, and brain health—so you can take preventative steps against even serious conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s. Reach to my office with any questions on testing to get started!

Thyroid health remains essential during menopause. Optimal labs should show FT3 around 4.0 and FT4 near 1.5, and testing through Direct Labs makes it easy to track. Supporting with supplements like Thyromin can help, but only if guided by accurate lab results.

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. Specialized folates, B12 forms, and glutathione can bypass the blockages, and products like MTHFR Daily were designed specifically to fill these nutrient gaps so patients can restore energy and thrive.

One of the most powerful success stories at Purser Wellness came from a young patient who went from having 3–5 seizures a week to none for three months after completing CMA and genetic testing. In another case, a woman with almost no measurable niacin in her system saw her seizures stop within two weeks once her deficiency was corrected. These aren’t “cures” in the traditional sense—just treating obvious nutritional deficiencies revealed by precise testing—but the results can be life-changing.

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 testing reveals what your cells have been missing over the last 100 days. Low levels can mean weak enzymes, non-functioning proteins, and accelerated aging. By identifying deficiencies and matching them with the correct nutrient forms for your genetics, you can target fatigue, anxiety, depression, and other chronic issues at the root.
