The Hidden Driver of Chronic Disease

PURSER WELLNESSGENETIC MUTATION DETECTION AND WHAT THAT MEANS for YOUA conversation with Dr. Purser

CRISPR is in the process of coming up with a treatment to change your genetic mutations. This could mean helping fix the mutations that put you at risk for Alzheimer's disease, macular degeneration, strokes, or Factor V Leiden. Stay on the look out for this very exciting new technology as it advances!

PURSER WELLNESSThe Struggle of HomocysteineA conversation with Dr. Purser

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.

PURSER WELLNESSHomocysteine is the Secret AssasinA conversation with Dr. Purser

Homocysteine is nasty — but here’s the truth no one tells you. It doesn’t kill you directly — it triggers white blood cells to release IL-8 and MCP-1, causing inflammation, kidney failure, heart attacks, and strokes. Most doctors don’t even check it anymore, thinking there’s no fix. But there is. Whether from 17 genetic SNPs or 12 vitamin deficiencies (like B6 or B12), you can address it by supporting your body’s ability to convert homocysteine into glutathione.

PURSER WELLNESSGlutathione for Wound Healing? Yes!A conversation with Dr. Purser

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.

PURSER WELLNESSPC can save your gut??A conversation with Dr. Purser

Phosphatidylcholine has emerged as a groundbreaking therapeutic agent in managing inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. Scientific studies over the past decade, including major publications like Annals of Internal Medicine and Digital Digest, have consistently highlighted its efficacy and safety.

PURSER WELLNESSHow to Keep Healthy Vitamin C LevelsA conversation with Dr. Purser

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.

PURSER WELLNESSHeal the Gut by Addressing One Genetic Error?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis: The Missing Link? Did you know there’s a genetic condition, PEMT, that may be a major factor in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis? If you have it, your body struggles to produce phosphatidylcholine, a critical compound for gut and liver health. Research shows supplementing with phosphatidylcholine and glutathione can make a huge difference in managing these conditions.

PURSER WELLNESSDefeat Inflammation with Super Antioxidants?A conversation with Dr. Purser

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
