Let’s explore “Lupus and cytokine networks”

VARS Glutathione works at the cellular level to calm inflammation by lowering cytokine activity. Cytokines are signaling molecules that, when overproduced, drive pain, fatigue, and chronic disease. By boosting your body’s master antioxidant

A subscriber post from Purser Wellness on Substack, covering cytokines and immune signaling, inflammation and antioxidants.

Remember all the talk about cytokine storms a few years back? 🌪️ These intense inflammatory responses are often triggered by overstimulated white blood cells—and low glutathione levels may be the reason why. If you’re dealing with lingering

A true functional glutathione would help prevent the cytokine cascade that leads to the cytokine storm with the invisible scourge. It would also help ameliorate the inflammatory response to the displaced heme iron we now know is being found

🧬 MTHFR Mutations, High Homocysteine & Autoimmune Disease: The Hidden Root Cause Most Doctors Miss For decades, patients with RA, lupus, MS, Hashimoto’s, and fibromyalgia chase symptom relief with meds that never fix the underlying fire. A

PURSER WELLNESSMTHFR Mutations, Elevated Homocysteine & Autoimmune Inflammation: The Hidden Root Cause Most Doctors Miss From the reading room

— A Guide by the World’s Leading Homocysteine Expert For more than four decades as a practicing physician, I have watched thousands of patients cycle through conventional autoimmune treatments that address symptoms but never touch the fire underneath. Rheumatoid arthritis flares, lupus rashes, multiple sclerosis relapses, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, fibromyalgia pain—these are not random. They share a common, often overlooked biochemical pathway: MTHFR mutations leading to elevated homocysteine that supercharges autoimmune inflammation . This is not fringe theory. It is the clinical reality I hav

PURSER WELLNESSGlutathione and Your Ability To Detox?A conversation with Dr. Purser

Your body’s ability to detox depends on one critical pathway—turning homocysteine into glutathione. But for millions with MTHFR or other genetic SNPs, this process is broken, leaving them vulnerable to toxins, inflammation, and cytokine storms. That’s why VARS Glutathione is such a breakthrough: it’s reduced, functional, and proven to lower harmful cytokines like IL-8 and MCP-1, giving your body the detox power it needs. After 15 years of research and real patient results, it’s the only oral glutathione that actually works where it matters—inside your cells.

Most doctors run standard serum blood tests, see a "normal" nutrient level, and send you home. But measuring floating nutrients in your liquid serum is like looking at the paint on a house to see if the plumbing works inside. After reviewing over 40,000 advanced intracellular vitamin lab panels, the truth is clear: intracellular glutathione vs serum levels tell two entirely different stories. Your serum can look completely fine while your cells are completely depleted of the master antioxidant needed to protect your life. The Cytokine Threat When methylation breaks down and homocysteine elevat

CD14 helps immune cells recognize microbial components, including bacterial lipopolysaccharide, as part of innate immune signaling. This places it upstream of some cytokine responses.

IL21 encodes a cytokine involved in regulating lymphocytes, including B-cell responses. It sits within an immune network that connects T-cell help, antibody responses and inflammatory activity.
