Hi, I’m Dr. Dan Purser. For too long, autism has been treated as a mystery with only symptom management. In this episode, I break down what I’ve seen consistently in practice: the real root cause behind many cases on the spectrum. It starts with genetic variants (especially MTHFR and related SNPs) that break the transsulfuration pathway. When kids can’t efficiently convert homocysteine into glutathione, they lose their ability to detox heavy metals and environmental toxins. The result is chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and developmental challenges. The good news? Once we identify these biochemical and genetic imbalances through proper testing, we can intervene at the root with targeted support — restoring methylation, rebuilding glutathione function, and giving the body what it needs to heal. This isn’t theory. It’s the Purser Method® in action. If you’re a parent searching for real answers instead of just labels, this episode is for you. The root cause has been solved. Now let’s talk solutions.

Facebook listingYour genetic results might list “wild type,” “heterozygous,” or “homozygous,” but what does that mean? Wild type means both copies of your gene are normal, heterozygous means one is normal and one has a change, and homozygous means both copies have the same change. With genes like MTHFR, these variations can affect how efficiently your body processes nutrients like folate—sometimes cutting function by 40–70%—which is why targeted nutrition and testing matter.

Dr. Purser uses CMA with Redox testing to go deeper than your average doctor ever will. He sees severe lipoic acid, biotin, PQQ, and lithium deficiencies causing symptoms that mimic dementia, thyroid issues, or low testosterone. It’s not “manopause”—it’s vitaminopause. Find the root cause, don’t just chase prescriptions.
What is interstitial cystitis or IC? It is a chronic bladder syndrome that causes immense amounts of pain. In this episode, Dr. Purser talks about new urinary genetics testing for bacteria (Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR), new pain options, and a diet that actually work for interstitial cystitis.

This week Dr. Purser covers his protocol of diagnosing and treating MTHFR along with the many other diseases affected or caused by these genetic errors. Dr. Purser recommends starting with genetic testing (DanPurserMD.com/genetics-testing), taking MTHFR Support supplements (PhysicianDesigned.com), and scheduling an appointment to meet one-on-one (DanPurserMD.com/schedule-appointment).
This week Dr. Purser bridges the concept of methylation errors being connected to PCOS. Genetic testing can help balance hormones and vitamins producing many great effects on certain diseases.
