THE TEACHING CONNECTION
The binding side of the IL-18 receptor
The binding side of the IL-18 receptor
IL18R1 encodes a component of the receptor for IL-18. It works with an accessory component, IL18RAP, to support IL-18 signaling.
How Dr. Purser connects the pieces
Dr. Purser connects this receptor pathway with celiac and inflammatory bowel disease contexts. A gene for receiving a signal is distinct from the gene that produces it. Symptoms and standard diagnostic testing should determine whether a gut inflammatory disorder is present.
Where the VARS Triad and MTHFR Daily fit
In Dr. Purser’s treatment framework, the VARS Triad—VARS Glutathione, VARS SOD and VARS Catalase—together with MTHFR Daily is a central consideration when homocysteine or cytokine issues are involved. He emphasizes VARS Glutathione as a foundational functional-support component across his genetic SNP teaching. The individual gene lesson explains how its pathway connects to that broader approach.
This describes the Purser treatment model, not proof that a product corrects a variant or treats every associated condition. Product choice, formulation, sequence and amount depend on the individual assessment, existing medicines, current findings and tolerance.
A question to bring to your visit
Are we investigating a confirmed gut inflammatory condition or only a susceptibility marker?
