TK--- sulfer compounds will be different and contian different

elements so you would need to be more specific and then googling it

would give you an answer, they contain sulfer which mobilizes Hg

unless it is bound in some way by the chemical chain [other elements]

of the compound.

TK--- it can cause the same damage by mobilizing Hg as stated above.

According to most sources taurine is a sulfur based amino acid. I am

just wondering is this is why it made my copper symptoms worse when I

took it.

Thanks

I am worried that by taking Taurine I am causing further damage either

through copper detox or mercury bouncing around. Anyone?

My copper symptoms go through the roof. Does taurine speed up

gluthione conjungation? and phase two. I do have gilberts which could

explain why I am in this mess to begin with, in gilberts the two above

things are slowed down big time. All I know is the 24 hrs I took

taurine it did simliar things that vitamin C did which is dump copper

into your blood. Panic attacks, racing heart, freezing cold etc.

Thanks

TK--- how do you know it is causing copper problems and not something

else ? not everyone can take everything and get the same results.

Please include the pertinent parts of the previous post you are

responding to for clarity and context.
