Guest guest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Why is it necessary to avoid sulfer food? Does everyone need to avoid sulfer? I read on one post that epsom salt baths infused the body with sulfer. Are these baths not a good idea? Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 > > I'm no expert, but wouldn't it be simpler to just take a sulphur supplement and make a note if you feel better or worse? > > ------- Well no, because you would still be eating sulfur so what's a litte more? Once you take it completely out of your diet for a few days, the mercury is no longer being stirred up, so you feel better. Then you eat something sulfury (eggs, cheese) and the mercury gets stirred up again and the symptoms come roaring back. Also, alot of mercury toxic people have huge yeast problems. Sulfur feeds yeast. This is the only place I've heard that and its true! I had alot of die off as soon as I took sulfur out of my diet. It's also worth noting that I was eating an almost completely sulfur diet before - eggs,coffee,cheese,chocolate,broccoli,stringbeans... The yeast in me was dictating my diet without my even knowing it! Smart little buggers... Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to clear the excess sulfur out of your system before you can notice whether you have a reaction.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 I am reading Andy's book right now and very confused about this issue. Epsom salts seem to help and my daughter a lot. We both have Lyme and mercury issues. She has a very leaky filling right now. Is there a difference between the sulfur from Epsom salts and the sulfur you get in diet? How can I figure out exactly how to supplement so that we are working with our bodies rather than against them with this particular issue. It seems so important when considering the phases of liver detox. Sorry if I'm missing an obvious link/reference here. I'm not finished with the book yet and have just begun to try to understand this issue. We had a pretty dramatic week last week and epsom salts seem to save the day regularly around here. Also, is it necessary to also supplement with other forms of magnesium? We still have our amalgam and can't chelate yet. I'm looking for ways to support clearing of all toxins.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi Mark, It is usual to feel better after eating a high sulfur food and to crash afterwards, if you are a sulfur sensitive person.

You need to find the dteailed description of the ';sulfur food reaction' on the list archives or in my book Amalgam Illness ( www.noamalgam.com ).
