THE TEACHING CONNECTION
A distinct member of the glutathione network
A distinct member of the glutathione network
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.
How Dr. Purser connects the pieces
Dr. Purser’s notes connect GSTO2 with lung-related oxidative stress. This provides a teaching link to exposure history and antioxidant demand, not a diagnosis of COPD or proof that a supplement prevents lung damage. Respiratory symptoms need assessment on their own clinical merits.
A question to bring to your visit
How do breathing symptoms, smoking or other exposures and actual lung findings fit this discussion?

DR. PURSER’S TREATMENT FRAMEWORK
VARS Glutathione in the genetic pathway conversation
Dr. Purser emphasizes VARS Glutathione as a foundational functional-support component across his genetic SNP teaching. When homocysteine or cytokine issues are involved, his wider framework also centers the VARS Triad and MTHFR Daily.
This describes the Purser approach; it is not an individualized prescription or proof that a product corrects a gene variant. Review formulation, tolerance and your current treatment with your clinician.
