Why do some people in the same family get destroyed by black mold… while others are completely fine?
Why do two kids develop autism while their siblings are completely normal?
Dr. Dan Purser explains the hidden genetic issue behind both: a homocysteine problem that disrupts the transsulfuration pathway — the pathway responsible for making ~90% of your glutathione.
Without enough glutathione, your body simply cannot clear toxins. Mold, heavy metals, environmental chemicals… they stay stuck. This is why some people get chronically ill and others don’t, even when living in the exact same house.
In this episode we cover:
How a genetic disruption in the transsulfuration pathway causes low glutathione
Why most “glutathione” products on Amazon do nothing
The only two patented forms that actually work
Real cases of black mold toxicity and autism improvement
Why checking genetics is more important than just checking a homocysteine level
This is root-cause medicine — not symptom chasing.
