Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Interesting idea. Why does the whey make you say that? Does it have sulfur? I'll look that up on onibasu. I always thought I didn't need a sulfur exclusion diet because I do eat so much eggs and broccoli and onions with no apparent problems. I really like those foods. How do I know if it's an issue? How do you come up with the idea it's an issue based on my whey comments? > > - if there was no subsequent crash after the initial positive effect of > the whey, then it may just be that you are a person who needs a fair bit of > sulfur in her diet.
