What’s searchable?Are you struggling with Crohn’s disease? Let’s talk about the real story behind cytokines and vitamin D—facts the medical community isn’t telling you. Discover how understanding these root causes could change your health journey. Ready to l
High homocysteine signals a broken transsulfuration pathway, leaving you unable to detox or convert it into glutathione. This shows up in conditions like PCOS and fibromyalgia, where patients often struggle with inflammation, pain, and even infertility. Genetics play a big role—there are 17 SNPs that can lock homocysteine in place—but vitamin deficiencies can make it worse. The real breakthrough isn’t lowering homocysteine itself but calming the cytokines it triggers, like IL-8 and MCP-1. That’s why VARS Glutathione, the only patented oral form proven to work, is so powerful—it lowers those cy
Searchable captionsHigh homocysteine often shows up first as widespread inflammation—pain all over, poor circulation, or even early warning signs of cardiovascular problems like stroke and heart attack. The best way to know for sure is through testing: a blood test can measure homocysteine directly, while a CMA with Redox uncovers the vitamin deficiencies driving it. For genetic causes, the DRP Genetics panel screens 15–16 of the 17 known SNPs that can cause permanently high homocysteine. If your levels are fixed by genetics, reduced glutathione and targeted B vitamins (like MTHFR Daily) are key to balancing the
Searchable captionsMost glutathione supplements fail because they break down before your body can use them. VARS Glutathione is different—it’s patented, validated, and proven to raise real intracellular glutathione levels. That means it actually works to calm inflammation, lower cytokines, and protect your cells where it matters most.
Searchable captionsHigh homocysteine? It’s not the number—it’s the cytokines it triggers (like IL-8) that cause strokes, kidney failure & inflammation. We found 17 gene SNPs + 12 vitamin deficiencies that drive it—and VARS Glutathione helps shut it down.
Searchable captionsStruggling with high blood pressure that just won’t budge—even with multiple meds? It might be due to genetic issues causing high homocysteine , which can stiffen your arteries through IL-8 and MCP-1 cytokines.
Superoxide Dismutase 3 (SOD 3), also known as extracellular SOD or ubiquitous SOD, plays a critical role in your body’s defense against inflammation and oxidative stress. Here’s why it matters: Stabilizes Mast Cells SOD 3 helps suppress mast cell activation, reducing the release of inflammatory mediators that contribute to conditions like skin inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, and chronic pain. Reduces Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines By inhibiting cytokines like TNF-Alpha, SOD 3 can help soothe inflammation at its source. Supports Healthy Joints and Blood Vessels Whether you have joint disc
A sudden spike in folate or homocysteine is rarely caused by supplements. It is most often the result of a hidden infection or minor injury triggering a cytokine surge. Identifying and treating the underlying source is the key to bringing l
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. Hom
A post from Purser Wellness on Substack, covering cytokines and immune signaling, inflammation and antioxidants.
Years ago, I watched cystic fibrosis (CF) patients receive nebulized glutathione that didn’t seem to help. Decades later, our team developed and patented the first fully functional, reduced, and stable form — VARS Glutathione. Why does thi
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
