Let’s explore “persistent inflammation”

Menopause weight loss isn’t magic—it’s metabolism. Optimizing thyroid levels, correcting vitamin deficiencies, and building strength through consistent exercise can dramatically reduce inflammation and support healthy hormones. Start with t

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

Two big genetic problems I see all the time 👇 - Inflammation (homocysteine, PEMT) - Gut & liver issues (SIBO, colitis, diarrhea) Sometimes people have both… and it’s brutal. Genetics might not be the answer to everything— but it’s the start

PURSER WELLNESSGe Gene SNPs Cause Vitamin Deficiencies?A conversation with Dr. Purser

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 Info: http://www.DanPurserMD.com Supplements: https://www.PhysicianDesigned.com Books: https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00BIKSGVQ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/danpursermd Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PhysicianDesigned Twitter: https://twitter.com/realdanpursermd YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/danpursermd Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danpurser.md Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/danpursermd

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

CMA testing shows what nutrients are inside your cells, not just floating in your blood, giving a true picture of deficiencies. When combined with Redox, it also tracks inflammation markers and oxidative stress—giving a full view of your he

Ever looked at your genetic report and felt overwhelmed by all the “SNPs”? 🧬 These small DNA changes can impact how well your body produces energy, detoxifies, and handles inflammation. Think of them like typos in your genetic recipe—some d

PURSER WELLNESSWhat Is A Fixed Homocysteine Rate?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Homocysteine is a natural molecule your body makes, but when levels get too high it drives massive inflammation by triggering cytokine release. For some people, genetics or deficiencies cause a “fixed homocysteine rate,” meaning diet and vitamins alone won’t lower it. In those cases, the only real way to balance it is by supporting the pathway that converts homocysteine into glutathione. That’s why reduced, stable glutathione—like VARS Glutathione—is essential, because most products are oxidized and useless by the time you take them.
