My Pure MD

My Pure MD At My Pure MD, we focus on your well-being with integrative medicine, specializing in autoimmune and Complex Illness. This hit me out of the blue.

We'll guide you toward optimal health together, covering toxins, hormones, gut health, brain health, and longevity! My journey on the path of integrative and functional medicine began about 13 years ago. I had recently finishing my training in internal medicine from the University of Texas when I got sick. I was diagnosed with a terrible illness called fibromyalgia. I was also diagnosed with hypot

hyroidism and irritable bowel syndrome. I went from seeing 30 patients a day and taking 36 hour calls at the hospital to being constantly fatigued and hurting all over my body. I had constant abdominal pain and was exhausted. It felt like my whole system had shut down overnight. I had to find help. I went to doctor after doctor and really found no answers. I was given medications but they gave me horrible side effects. Frustrated with the conventional medical system, I started doing my own reading and research in complementary and alternative medicine. I had always been a great fan of Dr. Andrew Weil’s and Dr. Mark Hyman’s work, and based on their recommendations and other reading I did – I made lifestyle and nutritional changes, including stopping gluten, dairy, and sugar, adding a daily ritual of exercise, breath training and yoga, and nutritional supplements – I began to feel better. I continued to practice at the Texas Medical Center and was voted as one the Top 10 internist in Houston, as well as one of the Top 10 internist in the State of Texas. Over 13 years of practice as a primary care physician, I saw about 10,000 patients. As time went by, I became increasingly dissatisfied with the current medical approach. I saw a rising trend in chronic illnesses and medication side effects and no emphasis on addressing the root cause of chronic conditions. I knew it was time for a change. In 2013, I was accepted in a 2-year fellowship program at the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine, one of the most prestigious training programs in integrative medicine in the world under the direct mentorship of Dr. Weil. This was a dream come true! Over the next 2 years, I went through a very rigorous program and trained with some of the leading experts in the field of integrative and functional medicine, including Dr. Weil, Dr. Tieraona Low Dog, Dr. Hyman and Dr. Victoria Maizes. At My Pure MD, I have combined my years of experience as an internist with my extensive training in the field of integrative and functional medicine. With this combined approach, I incorporate the best diagnostic tools and technologies from conventional medicine, as well as emerging tools and tests that help me identify the critical imbalances that are the root cause of disease to help me treat the whole system not just the symptoms. I welcome you to My Pure MD. Together we will walk on your road to wellness!

Brain fog, anxiety, and digestive issues—it’s all connected.⁠

Your gut and brain communicate constantly through the vagus nerve, your microbiome, and immune messengers. When gut health is off, mood and cognitive function often follow.⁠

Supporting your gut isn’t just about digestion—it’s foundational for mental clarity and emotional balance.

I’m Dr. Kirmani, founder of MyPureMD and a double board-certified physician in internal and integrative medicine. I help patients uncover the root causes behind chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, mold toxicity, and gut issues.⁠

I believe true healing comes from personalized, root-cause medicine, not just managing symptoms. At MyPureMD, we blend evidence-based science with functional tools to help you feel your best again.⁠

If you’re ready to get to the root of what’s holding you back, I’m here to help.

Cortisol is more than just your stress hormone. It plays a central role in metabolism, inflammation, immune response, blood sugar balance, and sleep-wake cycles.⁠

When cortisol is out of balance—too high or too low—it can lead to fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, and hormonal disruption. Understanding your cortisol patterns is a key step in supporting whole-body health.

You don’t need a subscription to start healing.⁠

Some of the most powerful medicines are already within your reach—sunlight, sleep, movement, presence.⁠

Functional medicine reminds us that the basics still matter.

Mannose cranberry supplements offer a targeted approach to urinary tract support, especially for those dealing with recurring UTIs.⁠

💊 D-mannose, a naturally occurring sugar, binds to E. coli bacteria in the urinary tract, helping flush them out before they can trigger an infection.⁠
💊 Cranberry extract works by reducing the ability of bacteria to stick to the bladder wall.⁠

Together, they offer a targeted, non-antibiotic option for those prone to recurrent UTIs—without disrupting the gut microbiome.⁠


Note: Always consult your doctor before starting any new supplement, especially if you have ongoing health concerns.

What you put in your cart can shape how you feel 🛒⁠

For those navigating autoimmune conditions, food isn’t just fuel—it’s information for your immune system. Choosing anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense foods can help calm immune reactivity, support gut healing, and reduce flares over time.

In functional medicine, we look for tools that work with your body—peptides are one of them. ⁠

These targeted amino acid chains support healing at the cellular level. From improving energy, metabolism, and hormone balance to enhancing skin, sleep, and recovery, peptides help restore what your body needs to thrive.⁠
We offer personalized peptide protocols based on your health goals and labs.⁠

As a functional medicine doctor, I’ve seen how peptides can support healing at the cellular level—boosting energy, improving metabolism, calming inflammation, aiding tissue repair, and supporting hormone balance.⁠

One resource I often recommend is The Peptide Handbook: A Professional’s Guide to Peptide Therapeutics. It translates complex science into clear, practical insights. Written by experts in the field, it’s a powerful guide for anyone integrating peptides into a personalized, root-cause approach to health.
