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.

Dr. Dan Purser literally writes out what glutathione is, why it is important to your body and your cells, and the difference between the useless oxidized version of glutathione (GSSG) and the functional version of glutathione (GSH).

Dr. Purser explains how glutathione works, how to use the product, and how much to use. Explore the antioxidant similarities of glutathione to Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) such as antiviral properties, blood vessel health, bone health, and support of hormone production. Discover how CD4 and CD8 T-killer white blood cells rely on glutathione to provide immunity and remove viruses, toxins, and lactic acid from the body. Learn how Metallothionein requires glutathione to complete the functioning molecule that removes heavy metals from the bloodstream. Discover the mental clarity and well-being that c
Dr. Purser discusses health benefits of plaque regression. Learn the risks of plaque buildup in the carotid arteries and coronary artery. Explore how plaque affects heart attack, stroke, erectile dysfunction, and other diseases. Discover how reduced glutathione makes it almost impossible for the body to convert cholesterol into plaque by reducing inflammatory molecules. Learn how Pioglitazone safely promotes plaque regression and effectively opens coronary and carotid arteries. Contact us at (801) 796-7667 or info@danpursermd.com for help.

Dr. Purser explains the diagnosis and treatment of MTHFR (methylenteterahydrofolate reductase enzyme deficiency disease). Learn the genetic component of this illness (such as C677T or A1298C) and how it affects the body's inability of methylation to convert carbohydrates into ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). Discover how the complex enzyme pathways of the Krebs cycle and citric acid cycle convert carbohydrate molecules into ATP molecules in the mitochondria. Explore the relationship of MTHFR to vitamin and hormone deficiencies while understanding how vitamin supplements can replace key missing (u
Dr. Purser explains the benefits of healthy zinc blood levels, and the struggles that may arise due to lack of zinc. Learn why zinc is critical for functionality in your thyroid gland, thyroid receptors, and insulin receptors. Learn how zinc deficiencies may cause symptoms of diabetes or hypothyroidism. Discover zinc's relationship to the body's ability to manufacture testosterone (in both men and women). Learn about the relationship of low zinc levels and osteoporosis. Learn how zinc protects you from metal toxicity, particularly copper toxicity. Contact us at (801) 796-7667 or info@danpurser
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.
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) often flares when oxidative stress is high, pushing mast cells to release histamine and inflammatory cytokines. Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is your body’s first defense against that stress—neutralizing su
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

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. Specialize
