Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 I have really loose joints and ligaments to the point where one shoulder repeatedly dislocates. It's also where I experience the most pain and fatigue. I've been reading how sulfur is important to the body and helps keep joints/ligaments together. So, I'm confused - if I reduce sulfur how will that affect my current problems? Also, is sulfur restriction a temporary thing until the mercury is significantly detoxed?

There must be other limiting factors that are contributing to the loose joints and ligaments. A pain specialist treated my ligaments before I knew that I was mercury poisoned. He told me that my ligaments wouldn't heal without cortisol and thyroid hormone replacement. He was right. Over the course of a year, with hormone replacement and prolotherapy treatments he was able to heal my ligaments, while other patients whose doctors wouldn't let them take cortisol didn't heal. A person needs just the right amount of hormone, not too much, not too little. > Also, is sulfur restriction a temporary thing until the mercury is > significantly detoxed? > Yes. I was on a low sulfur diet for about 4 years before amalgam removal, and one year after, and then I started to be able to tolerate sulfur foods, before I started chelation. Usually people start to tolerate sulfur foods some time during chelation. J > Thanks, > > Val > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
