Guest guest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Hi Mark, > Why is it necessary to avoid sulfer food? It is not necessary for everybody. Some people do fine eating sulfur foods, other don't. You may want to exclude sulfur foods from your diet for a few days and see if you feel better. What use to be proposed is that after feeling so well you eat a lot of sulfur food, like eggs and asparagus and see if you feel worse. If this is the case, you will be one of those who will benefit from a sulfur exclusion diet. Another reason for excluding sulfur foods is that yeast is better controlled. This has worked pretty well for me. 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? I think they are a very good idea. The real problem is not with sulfur, but with thiol groups, which are radicals formed by one sulfur atom and one hydrogen atom. Epsom salts are magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, no thiol and thus safe and a very convenient way to benefit from magnesium. Enjoy them! Good luck, > > Mark > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The form of sulfur to be concerned with is the form that is a thiol or can be turned into a thiol by your body. Sulfate can't so these are fine. > > Mark > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 , Thanks for responding. I have a follow up question. I noticed that on days when I eat a couple of eggs, I feel better. Can the effect be within hours of eating a high sulfer food? Thanks, Mark > > Hi Mark, > > > Why is it necessary to avoid sulfer food? > > It is not necessary for everybody.
