The Overlooked Link Between MTHFR Mutations, Hyperhomocysteinemia, PCOS, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Inflammation, and Renal Decline — and Why Precision Genetic Testing May Be the Missing Step
Dr. Purser shares his clinical perspective on homocysteine, methylation, and inflammatory patterns.
This video is coming from the Bahamas! Dr. Purser talks about the difference between MTHFR Support and MTHFR Support Plus. He explains how to use both together effectively to help your vitamin deficiencies!
High homocysteine often shows up first as widespread inflammation—pain all over, poor circulation, or even early warning signs of cardiovascular problems like stroke and heart attack. The best way to know for sure is through testing: a blood test can measure homocysteine directly, while a CMA with Redox uncovers the vitamin deficiencies driving it. For genetic causes, the DRP Genetics panel screens 15–16 of the 17 known SNPs that can cause permanently high homocysteine. If your levels are fixed by genetics, reduced glutathione and targeted B vitamins (like MTHFR Daily) are key to balancing the
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.
Your 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.
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. Purser dives into the root causes of low testosterone in men. As always, "Good nutrition in, means good hormones out." Could low testosterone levels be linked to severe vitamin deficiencies caused by genetic errors such as MTHFR? Dr. Purser has found this to be the case for many of his patients.
