VKORC1 encodes vitamin K epoxide reductase, part of the vitamin K recycling system used in activating clotting proteins. It is not simply a vitamin K receptor.
Follow Dr. Purser’s teaching on folate, B12, sulfur pathways and antioxidant support around homocysteine.
ALPL encodes tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase, an enzyme important to bone and tooth mineralization and vitamin B6 metabolism. Persistently low alkaline phosphatase can deserve a different evaluation from a general nutrient deficiency.
GSTO2 encodes glutathione S-transferase omega 2, a redox enzyme with dehydroascorbate reductase activity that connects glutathione chemistry with vitamin C recycling. It is a separate gene from GSTO1.
Encodes cubilin, part of a receptor system involved in uptake of the intrinsic-factor–B12 complex.
What if the key to feeling better isn't another health trend—but understanding the nutrients your body depends on every day? Vitamin C. B vitamins. Iron. These essential nutrients influence everything from energy production and immune fun
How many health problems are being blamed on everything except the real cause? Vitamin B6 is one of the most overlooked nutrients in wellness conversations, yet it plays a critical role in everything from energy and mood to brain function
Unlock the power of B1 Thiamine! Join Dr. Dan Purser MD and Purser Wellness Coach Jackson Larkin as they reveal how this essential vitamin can boost your energy, support your nervous system, and help you feel your best.
Is your child struggling with unexplained health issues? The answers might be closer than you think. Genetics, vitamin deficiencies, and inflammation can all play a major role in your child’s well-being. With the right testing and a persona
This video is coming from the Bahamas! Dr. Purser talks about the difference between MTHFR Support and MTHFR Support Plus. He explains how to use both together effectively to help your vitamin deficiencies!
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
