Re: sulfation - dandelion greens?

[Guest guest]

OK, thanks both of you.

Does anyone know if egg WHITES have sulfur? I know the yolks do.

I have the lists of sulfur foods -- I am in Greece right now, and the

produce here is not quite the same in many cases as what you find in

the US, and I am not sure how to figure some things out. For

example, one thing I would like to eat is the fresh greens they sell

here, but do they have sulfur? They have a sharp taste, like

dandelion -- the sulfurfoods list in the Files section of this group

does not include some things that are on other lists (rosemary and

turmeric are some examples) so the fact that dandelion greens are not

on the list doesn't assure me that they do not have sulfur.

Also herbs in general -- recently I tried some yellow dock, supposed

to be for detox -- well, it hit me as if I had taken a spoonful of

whey. I got a feeling as if my forehad was full of lead plus general

malaise and this went on and on for days. Is it sulfur in yellow

dock? I am not sure. And don't know how to find out. If anyone can

give a clue, that would be great.

thank you

Ya, it's the egg whites where the sulfur should be - as the sulfur is in

the protein, and I understand the egg white is the part that has the

high protein.

As for the fresh greens or various herbs, I don't know.
