In this powerful live session, Dr. Dan Purser MD reveals why conventional pediatric medicine often falls short and shares his proven Purser Method® for helping children with autism spectrum traits, severe ADHD, chronic inflammation, and developmental delays.
Drawing from over 43 years of clinical experience, Dr. Purser explains:
Why genetic testing (especially MTHFR and related SNPs) is the essential first step
How to use targeted, active-form nutrients instead of generic vitamins
The role of leucovorin (high-dose folinic acid) and when it makes a real difference
Practical ways to reduce toxin load and calm the inflammatory response
Smart strategies around vaccination and detoxification support
Dr. Purser emphasizes that kids are not little adults — their developing systems need precise, individualized care. Parents and practitioners will walk away with actionable steps that address root causes rather than just managing symptoms.
Whether your child is struggling with speech delays, meltdowns, focus issues, or recurrent health problems, this episode offers real hope through biochemistry done right.

How Elevated Homocysteine, Impaired Methylation, and Glutathione Deficiency May Be Driving PCOS, Chronic Pain, Brain Fog, Stroke Risk, and Detox Failure — and Why Genetic Testing WILL Change the Way

Dr. Purser explains symptoms of Metallothionein dysfunctions and how metal toxicity can cause fibromyalgia. Learn how high serum copper levels cause painful inflammation in muscles, nerves, and joints. Explore the genetic components associated with fibromyalgia.
High 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
Genetic SNPs are tiny changes in your DNA that can drastically affect how well your enzymes and proteins work. For example, being homozygous for MTHFR C677T leaves that enzyme functioning at only about 30% efficiency, which can drain your energy and impair folate processing. Similarly, errors in SOD genes reduce your body’s ability to neutralize free radicals. While we can’t change your genes, we can work around them by identifying these weaknesses and filling the gaps with targeted nutrition and supplementation—helping your body function closer to its full potential.
Your genetic results might list “wild type,” “heterozygous,” or “homozygous,” but what does that mean? Wild type means both copies of your gene are normal, heterozygous means one is normal and one has a change, and homozygous means both copies have the same change. With genes like MTHFR, these variations can affect how efficiently your body processes nutrients like folate—sometimes cutting function by 40–70%—which is why targeted nutrition and testing matter.
The new DRP Genetics test, designed by Dr. Purser in collaboration with MaxGen, makes genetic testing simple and precise. Each kit comes pre-filled with everything you need—just swab your cheek, place it in the vial, and send it back the same day using the prepaid mailer. This curated panel focuses on key SNPs Dr. Purser selected after years of research, giving patients clearer answers and actionable insights into their health.
Superoxide dismutase (SOD)—your body’s first line of defense against DNA-damaging free radicals. SOD neutralizes superoxide radicals at the source of cellular energy production. But as we age—or if we have genetic SNPs—our ability to make SOD drops. That’s why we created VARS SOD, with over 10,000 IU per dose (most products have less than 240 IU). It’s a game changer for anti-aging, DNA protection, and reducing inflammation at the root.
