Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks Dave! I will check it. Sulfur foods are such a big issue, I wish there were definitive, complete and organized lists of both high and low sulfur foods. I know they are out there somewhere. I have seen some foods, example tomato, almond, cashew, sunflower seeds listed both as high and low. norske Re: Sulfer Foods Norske - there is one in the files section of the FDC list. Have you seen that one? That's Andy's, so it may be the most extensive we have. Dave. ----------------------- Posted by: " norske_man " norske_man@... norske_man Date: Wed May 14, 2008 9:14 pm ((PDT)) Can anyone point me in the direction of a extensive list of high- sulfur, and more importantly, low-sulfur foods. The list of low-sulfur foods I have is very limited. Thanks, norske Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 This post is years old but I wanted to reply in hopes someone may benefit. My son had violent reactions to small amounts of sulphur foods in my milk from birth. At about 4 months we found the homeopathinc remedy sulphur would stop his reaction in under a minute. He is now almost 4 and we still don't go anywhere without it (Walking past an egg place can trigger a reaction). Hopefully when I learn a little more about all of this and chelate it will no longer be such an issue! a > > Dear listmates, > > > > I've noticed that my son reacts badly to eggs, chlorella, garlic, > and > > a food supplement (phytaloe) that had brussel sprouts, cabbage, > > cauliflower etc. I deduce that he has a problem metabolising sulfur > > foods, and I understand that may be because he has a high > > concentration of blood thiols.
