Did you know your body’s natural defense against aging and inflammation quietly declines as you get older? Most people don’t realize that glutathione—the “master antioxidant”—drops with age, genetics, and high homocysteine. The result? More
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.
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?
Struggling with high blood pressure that just won’t budge—even with multiple meds? It might be due to genetic issues causing high homocysteine , which can stiffen your arteries through IL-8 and MCP-1 cytokines.
Top genes to keep an eye out for - homocysteine related genes, PEMT, and VDR. GET THESE ALL IN CHECK! If they are out of whack you’re gonna have a lot of problems, but we can address them. Get genetic testing and and Intracellular nutrient test and we go from there. Reach to my practice to get going. You got this.
Homocysteine is bad for you, but it’s a critical part of the transsulfuration pathway. You don’t make glutathione wothout it, but when your levels of homocysteine get too high, it becomes majorly problematic for you.
Two big genetic problems I see all the time 👇
- Inflammation (homocysteine, PEMT)
- Gut & liver issues (SIBO, colitis, diarrhea)
Sometimes people have both… and it’s brutal.
Genetics might not be the answer to everything—
but it’s the start

Dr. Purser and Justace discuss how genetics often reveal two major patterns in patients: either serious gut and liver issues like SIBO, pancreatitis, or colitis, or inflammatory problems tied to homocysteine and PEMT mutations. Sometimes patients suffer from both, which can lead to severe long-term complications like cancer, heart attacks, or strokes. While genetics isn’t the full answer, it provides critical insight into why these problems develop and how to intervene early.

Genetic testing has only been around for about 20 years, since the Human Genome Project made it possible to identify thousands of SNPs (gene variations) linked to disease and health issues. While gene editing with tools like CRISPR may be a future reality, for now the best way to “work around” your genes is by supplementing with the right vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. That’s exactly what the DRP Genetics test does—focusing on SNPs like MTHFR, PEMT, and others tied to homocysteine, gut, and brain health—so you can take preventative steps against even serious conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s. Reach to my office with any questions on testing to get started!
