Glutathione and Cytokines: A Hidden Cause of Renal Disease Did you know the cause of end-stage renal disease, often left untested, is high homocysteine? When homocysteine levels spike, it triggers the release of damaging cytokines like IL-

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.

CCL2 encodes MCP-1, a chemokine that attracts monocytes toward sites of immune activity. Recruitment is a different task from the cytokines that activate those cells once they arrive.

Good questions deserve a deeper conversation. Purser Wellness Explore is a new space to follow yours - videos, articles, and guided journeys with me. Start with MTHFR, cytokines, homocysteine, gut health… or whatever thread you’re holding

Explore cytokines, chemokines, receptors, and related genes on the comprehensive panel, including CD40LG, IL18R1, DDAH1, RAD50, and SLC19A1.

Explore transsulfuration, methylation, glutathione, genetic variants, cytokines, and possible connections.

PURSER WELLNESSWhat is VARS? Super Antioxidant Protection?A conversation with Dr. Purser

🔬 What is VARS? Why the VARS Trio (Glutathione + SOD + Catalase) is a game-changer for inflammation, recovery & fibromyalgia. Jackson Larkin sits down with Lois Schweiger to break down Dr. Dan Purser MD’s VARS line — Validated, Absorbable, Reduced, and Stable antioxidants. Learn the science behind VARS Glutathione, VARS SOD (from deep-sea algae near volcanic vents), and the newest VARS Catalase (Nrf2 activator from seaweed).
