Tired, Achy, or Foggy? This One Test Reveals the Real Cause (and It’s Not What You Think)
Have you been feeling exhausted for no obvious reason? Struggling with pain, fatigue, mood swings, or unexplained health symptoms? Before you jump to medications or guesswork, there’s one foundational step you should take: get a CMA test done.
At Purser Wellness, we use the CMA (Cellular Micronutrient Assay) with Redox to give you a detailed look at what’s happening inside your cells. It’s one of the most powerful tools we use to uncover deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants—many of which are genetically driven and completely missed by standard blood tests.
What is the CMA?
The CMA is an intracellular micronutrient test that evaluates over 100 different substances—everything from Vitamin D, B12, magnesium, zinc, glutathione, tyrosine, and more. What makes it different from regular blood work is that it doesn’t just show what’s floating around in your bloodstream. Instead, it shows what your cells have been absorbing and using over the past 90–120 days.
This test gives a snapshot of what your body truly has available to function, repair, and heal.
Why Intracellular Testing Matters
Most routine lab work looks at extracellular levels—what’s in your blood at that moment. But your symptoms aren’t happening in your blood—they’re happening inside your cells. That’s where the real story is told.
Micronutrient deficiencies can impact nearly every system in the body:
Energy production
Hormone balance
Bone health and mineralization
Cognitive function
Mood regulation
Immune strength
If you're dealing with conditions like osteopenia, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue, depression, fibromyalgia, or chronic pain, the CMA can show you the exact deficiencies behind those symptoms.
Deficiencies Are Often Genetic
At Purser Wellness, we frequently see intracellular deficiencies that aren’t just caused by diet—they're genetically inherited. SNPs like MTHFR, PEMT, and SOD2 can impair your ability to absorb or use key nutrients, even if you're eating a "perfect" diet.
That’s why we often pair CMA testing with genetic testing
. Together, these tests give us a complete map of where your health needs support—and how to fix it.
How the Test Works and What Happens Next
One simple blood draw—sent to a specialty lab.
Results show normal, borderline, or severely deficient status for over 100 nutrients.
Based on your results, we create a customized supplement and nutrition plan—targeted and effective.
Most patients begin to feel significantly better within 100 days.
If symptoms persist or new ones arise, we recommend a follow-up test to track progress and reassess.
We’ve seen patients go from needing daily naps and struggling with exercise to walking miles, lifting weights, and living fully againNeed for CMA.
Real Talk: It’s Not About Guessing—It’s About Knowing
Too often, people start with prescriptions, diets, or expensive protocols that don’t work—because they never looked at the root causes. We always start with the basics: intracellular vitamin and nutrient levels. If those aren’t right, nothing else will be.
Whether you're:
Struggling with low energy
Not bouncing back from workouts
Battling brain fog or anxiety
Diagnosed with osteoporosis or hormonal issues
Start with a CMA test. It’s affordable, actionable, and it gives you the blueprint for real healing.
