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
Just because you have EBV antibodies doesn’t mean it’s active—it usually means you’ve built immunity. The real issue? Most fibromyalgia patients have low reduced glutathione, which viruses like EBV intentionally suppress. That’s why symptoms overlap: fatigue, pain, immune dysfunction. Fix the glutathione issue, and you can support recovery on a deeper level.
The real root of fibromyalgia? It’s not just pain — it’s copper. We’ve uncovered that fibromyalgia is often driven by genetic mutations (like CBS, GAD1, GAD2) that affect how your body handles copper. The copper builds up in your blood but never makes it into your cells — leading to widespread pain, inflammation, and migraines.
This episode is special. Here we have 4 women discussing their journey of Thriving with Fibro while following the Purser Protocols for Fibromyalgia. Over the years, a community has grown and support each other.
Let’s talk about something uncomfortable but important—anal fissures, especially in people with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. These painful tears can extend deep and cause debilitating discomfort. Historically, treatments haven’t worked well… until now.
Struggling with inflammation, high cytokines, or conditions like psoriasis, kidney disease, or chronic fatigue? The root cause could be elevated interleukins like IL-8 and MCP-1, often triggered by high homocysteine levels. The most powerful natural solution we’ve found?
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.
Superoxide Dismutase 3 (SOD 3), also known as extracellular SOD or ubiquitous SOD, plays a critical role in your body’s defense against inflammation and oxidative stress. Here’s why it matters: Stabilizes Mast Cells SOD 3 helps suppress mast cell activation, reducing the release of inflammatory mediators that contribute to conditions like skin inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, and chronic pain. Reduces Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines By inhibiting cytokines like TNF-Alpha, SOD 3 can help soothe inflammation at its source. Supports Healthy Joints and Blood Vessels Whether you have joint disc
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.
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.
Endometriosis and pelvic pain is something I have talked about a number of times on my channel. However, in this livestream I will be discussing how I reinvented some of my tried and true treatments with a new approach that will be an absolute game changer!
