Treating Homocysteine May Treat The WORLD!

In the description

Doctors have spent decades trying to lower homocysteine with B6, B12, folate, or $12,000/month injections. But it’s not the homocysteine doing the damage—it’s the IL-8 and MCP-1 cytokines it releases. That’s where glutathione (especially VARS or Glutaryl) changes the game. We’ve seen cytokine levels drop to zero—and symptoms vanish.

Autism Answered - Root Cause Solved with #1 Reviewed MD in the USA

In the transcript

Hi, I’m Dr. Dan Purser. For too long, autism has been treated as a mystery with only symptom management. In this episode, I break down what I’ve seen consistently in practice: the real root cause behind many cases on the spectrum. It starts with genetic variants (especially MTHFR and related SNPs) that break the transsulfuration pathway. When kids can’t efficiently convert homocysteine into glutathione, they lose their ability to detox heavy metals and environmental toxins. The result is chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and developmental challenges. The good news? Once we identify these biochemical and genetic imbalances through proper testing, we can intervene at the root with targeted support — restoring methylation, rebuilding glutathione function, and giving the body what it needs to heal. This isn’t theory. It’s the Purser Method® in action. If you’re a parent searching for real answers instead of just labels, this episode is for you. The root cause has been solved. Now let’s talk solutions.
