Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 The gas is indeed sulfur, but that's not a mercury effect. When I listed high sulfur foods to my acupuncturist, and asked if she saw any connection between them, she said, " They all give you gas! " So, that's to be expected. The issue is, if your mercury poisoning symptoms get worse (I found them to be mostly psychological) then you're facing redistribution issues and need to decrease your sulfur intake. Dave. Posted by: " toowittybird " toowittybird@... If every time I eat eggs or avocado, I visit the loo within half an hour to one hour with d (in case of eggs it is also foul smelling), could this mean I have problem with sulfur foods? I don't believe I have such a strong reaction to eggs in baked goods (maybe the portion does not equal one whole egg). A food allergy test did reveal that I am highly allergic to egg whites but can have the yolk occasionally. Many years ago I used to eat two eggs at breakfast time without a problem (still had amalgams in my teeth then), then I felt I had a problem with the white for I started smelling the sulfury odor and just had the yolks with no problem. Then after almost 6 months I reintroduced the whites without a problem. It seems to have regressed again. I used to eat lentils daily, and then some months ago I started to have bad smelling gas every time. So now I have stopped that too. Is this also a sulfur food reaction? I avoid cabbage, cauliflower, apsaragus etc for they are too fibrous for me after my two surgeries for Crohn's. Not sure if it is my shorter bowel or lack of the terminal ileum or sulfur food reactions creating these problems. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 > Thanks Dave, that explanation has helped me understand the sulfur issue in my case. I am pretty sure when a couple of days ago I ate some rice chips that also had garlic in them (powder form) I felt a bit depressed and odd in the mind. I immediately stopped them. I now understand what I need to look out for and avoid. > The gas is indeed sulfur, but that's not a mercury effect.
