What I see again and again is an inability to detox caused by failures in the Transsulfuration Pathway. This is your pathway that converts homocysteine to glutathione. If you have MTHFR or 16 other Gene SNPs, you will have problems with this pathway.

What’s searchable?High homocysteine? It’s not the number—it’s the cytokines it triggers (like IL-8) that cause strokes, kidney failure & inflammation. We found 17 gene SNPs + 12 vitamin deficiencies that drive it—and VARS Glutathione helps shut it down.
One of the most powerful nutrients you’ve never heard of? Phosphatidylcholine. It builds the walls of your cells, protects your gut lining, supports nerve function, and even helps your body make bile. If you have a PEMT gene mutation, your body struggles to make it—and that means gut issues, nerve dysfunction, and chronic inflammation.
Want to keep your brain sharp and reduce your risk of dementia? New research shows that key nutrients can boost memory, support brain function, and prevent cognitive decline—and we’ve packed them into Brite Brain, our most advanced brain formula yet!
Did you know scurvy is still around today? It might sound like an old pirate disease, but a lack of Vitamin C can still cause fatigue, joint pain, bleeding gums, and slow healing. Without Vitamin C, your body can’t make collagen, which is essential for healthy skin, blood vessels, and connective tissues.
Scurvy, no one should have it in these modern ages, but I see these patients again and again. Thiamine Deficiency is another that NO ONE knows to look at, but it’s there. Remember, these are INTRACELLULAR deficiencies, not just blood serum levels. You have to Dig Deep to get the root of the issue.
High homocysteine levels can lead to inflammation, joint and muscle pain, and even shifting pain throughout the body. It’s also linked to birth defects and chronic kidney failure, and can raise blood pressure. Six genetic SNPs (like MTR, MTRR, and CBS) and MTHFR mutations (like C677T) can prevent homocysteine from converting into glutathione, which is essential for keeping inflammation in check. Plus, 12 vitamin deficiencies may temporarily raise homocysteine levels, so addressing these deficiencies is key.
For those who think I’m “alternative” or “on the edge,” let me clarify: I’m a Western-trained physician focused on root causes. I dive into genetics and vitamin deficiencies because they are grounded in science. Using intracellular vitamin panels and the latest research, I identify deficiencies and address them with the right versions of supplements. I love what I do and am here to help! Read my reviews, and thank you for trusting me.
Dan Purser MD, renown for his work with MTHFR, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, fertility, hormone health, fibromyalgia, and SO MUCH MORE takes on the recent podcast interview of Gary Brecka from 10 Times Health System and Joe Rogan. Mr. Brecka is correct on so many points, but there is still SO MUCH MORE to dive into. The 5 genes he looks at are critical, but there are several to dozens more that need to be addressed. Once you look at genes, you must check out Intracellular Micronutrient Levels. This is THE ONLY way to get the full picture.
Dr. Dan Purser literally writes out what glutathione is, why it is important to your body and your cells, and the difference between the useless oxidized version of glutathione (GSSG) and the functional version of glutathione (GSH).

After using the same intracellular micronutrient panel for almost a decade, I have found a new favorite! This Cellular Micronutrient Assay by Cell Science Systems is a real beast of a test with 100 data points, faster turn around times, less sample failures, and for the icing on the cake!... It is more affordable! Watch this video to see me go over the results of one of these micronutrient assays and find out how a test like this might be able to help you!
