One of the most powerful nutrients you’ve never heard of? Phosphatidylcholine. It builds the walls of your cells, protects your gut lining, supports nerve function, and even helps your body make bile. If you have a PEMT gene mutation, your body struggles to make it—and that means gut issues, nerve dysfunction, and chronic inflammation.
The real root of fibromyalgia? It’s not just pain — it’s copper. We’ve uncovered that fibromyalgia is often driven by genetic mutations (like CBS, GAD1, GAD2) that affect how your body handles copper. The copper builds up in your blood but never makes it into your cells — leading to widespread pain, inflammation, and migraines.
Did you know scurvy is still around today? It might sound like an old pirate disease, but a lack of Vitamin C can still cause fatigue, joint pain, bleeding gums, and slow healing. Without Vitamin C, your body can’t make collagen, which is essential for healthy skin, blood vessels, and connective tissues.
Endometriosis and pelvic pain is something I have talked about a number of times on my channel. However, in this livestream I will be discussing how I reinvented some of my tried and true treatments with a new approach that will be an absolute game changer!

Every woman with PCOS I’ve ever tested has a homocysteine problem...
That’s what Dr. Dan Purser says — and it might explain why so many women with PCOS struggle with pain, inflammation, fatigue, and even kidney or blood pressure issues.

Discover how a common genetic variant in the PEMT gene can block your body’s ability to make phosphatidylcholine — leading to chronic pancreatitis, even if you’ve never touched alcohol.
Yes—your genetics can directly cause vitamin deficiencies. Certain SNPs lower your body’s ability to process or make key nutrients, like MTHFR reducing folate use, PEMT lowering phosphatidylcholine production for gut and liver health, and SOD decreasing antioxidant defenses against free radicals. These deficiencies drive inflammation, fatigue, and chronic illness, but with the right genetic and intracellular testing, you can target them and supplement with the exact forms your body needs

Copper is essential for life—it helps enzymes work, supports SOD1 for antioxidant defense, and even prepares iron to carry oxygen in the blood. But when copper builds up in the bloodstream instead of entering cells, it causes pain, tender points, and migraines. This often ties back to genes like CBS, NAT2, and glutathione-related SNPs that impair copper transport. The solution is supporting ceruloplasmin—the copper-binding protein—with targeted nutrients like B6, zinc, and NAC. That’s why Copper Balance was created: to move copper where it belongs and help symptoms finally improve. Visit PhysicianDesigned.com or Amazon for Copper Balance.

🧬 High homocysteine isn’t just a heart problem—it’s a major player in fibromyalgia. If you’ve got fibro symptoms, there’s a good chance your transsulfuration pathway is broken—often due to 17 different SNPs or 12 key nutrient deficiencies. That means your body can’t detox properly or convert homocysteine into glutathione, leading to inflammation, pain, and fatigue. Don’t just chase labs—fix the root cause.
