Let’s explore “CCL2 / MCP-1”

A subscriber post from Purser Wellness on Substack, covering cytokines and immune signaling.

PURSER WELLNESSGlutathione and Your Ability To Detox?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Your body’s ability to detox depends on one critical pathway—turning homocysteine into glutathione. But for millions with MTHFR or other genetic SNPs, this process is broken, leaving them vulnerable to toxins, inflammation, and cytokine storms. That’s why VARS Glutathione is such a breakthrough: it’s reduced, functional, and proven to lower harmful cytokines like IL-8 and MCP-1, giving your body the detox power it needs. After 15 years of research and real patient results, it’s the only oral glutathione that actually works where it matters—inside your cells.

CCL4 encodes MIP-1 beta, a chemokine involved in attracting immune cells. It participates in a recruitment network that includes CCL2, CXCL8 and related chemokines.

PURSER WELLNESSCope with Homocysteine Like a Pro!A conversation with Dr. Purser

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

PURSER WELLNESSHomocysteine is the Secret AssasinA conversation with Dr. Purser

Homocysteine is nasty — but here’s the truth no one tells you. It doesn’t kill you directly — it triggers white blood cells to release IL-8 and MCP-1, causing inflammation, kidney failure, heart attacks, and strokes. Most doctors don’t even check it anymore, thinking there’s no fix. But there is. Whether from 17 genetic SNPs or 12 vitamin deficiencies (like B6 or B12), you can address it by supporting your body’s ability to convert homocysteine into glutathione.

PURSER WELLNESSThe True Potential of Glutathione?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Struggling with inflammation, high cytokines, or conditions like psoriasis, kidney disease, or chronic fatigue? The root cause could be elevated interleukins like IL-8 and MCP-1, often triggered by high homocysteine levels. The most powerful natural solution we’ve found?

PURSER WELLNESSIs there a way to relieve hypertension naturally?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Struggling 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.

PURSER WELLNESSWhat is the true harm of high homocysteine?A conversation with Dr. Purser

🚨 Homocysteine might be the most dangerous thing your doctor isn’t checking. It’s been linked to kidney failure, dialysis, hypertension, strokes, heart attacks, melanoma, and renal cancer. But it’s not the homocysteine itself—it’s the cytokines it triggers, like IL-8 and MCP-1, that do the damage. And if you’ve got any of the 17 key genetic SNPs, you’re at serious risk. You may not be able to lower homocysteine directly—but you can shut down those cytokines with the right nutrients and VARS Glutathione.

Doctors have spent decades trying to lower homocysteine with B6, B12, folate, or $12,000/month injections. But it’s not the homocysteine doing the damage—it’s the IL-8 and MCP-1 cytokines it releases. That’s where glutathione (especially VA

PURSER WELLNESSTreating Homocysteine May Treat The WORLD!A conversation with Dr. Purser

Doctors have spent decades trying to lower homocysteine with B6, B12, folate, or $12,000/month injections. But it’s not the homocysteine doing the damage—it’s the IL-8 and MCP-1 cytokines it releases. That’s where glutathione (especially VARS or Glutaryl) changes the game. We’ve seen cytokine levels drop to zero—and symptoms vanish.
