Sulfur

Sulfur is mineral.  It disinfects the blood, protects against toxic substances and helps the body resist bacteria.  It protects the cells and is needed for the synthesis of collagen, a principal protein that gives the skin its structural integrity.  Acid-forming, it also stimulates bile secretion and is part of the chemical structure of the following:
 

  • Cysteine amino acid:  which is the chief protein constituent of the skin.  It aids in the production of collagen and helps detoxify.
  •  Glutathione tripeptide:  an antioxidant stores predominantly in the liver, where it detoxifies harmful compounds for their excretion through the bile.
  •  Methionine amino acid:  which assists in digestion and the breakdown of fats.  It helps detoxify, is beneficial for chemical allergies, required for the synthesis of collagen, and reduces histamine.
  • Taurine amino acid:  a key component of bile for the digestion of fats.   Necessary for the utilization of potassium and magnesium.  Helpful for anxiety.   Losses of taurine are associated with overgrowth of candida, stress and zinc deficiency.
     

Natural Sources of Sulfur

Some natural sources of sulfur are found in brussel sprouts, cabbage, fish, garlic, kale, onions, soybeans and turnips.  Sulfur is the key substance that makes garlic the best of all herbs.  Horsetail is an herb that has sulfur.  
 

Methylsulfonylmethane "M.S.M"

MSM is an organic form of sulfur.  It is non-allergenic and necessary for survival.  It can help:
 

  • relieve stress
  • relieve constipation
  • fight candida
  • benefit asthma and arthritis sufferers
  • detoxify the body
  • strengthen capillary walls and coat and heal intestinal walls
  • keep hormones in balance
  • relieve food, drug and chemical allergies
  • control stomach acidity while maintaining body's normal pH balance
  • boost vitamin, mineral and amino acid utilization
  • speed the healing of cuts, sores and wounds
     

Testimonies

See a mom's testimony on how MSM helped her son with eczema.  This mom's testimony and the research above caused me to try it.  I have noticed that my skin is smoother and I'm one more step ahead in the path down recovery.  It has helped me, and I would recommend anyone with eczema to try it.  This would be among my first priorities as far as supplements are concerned.  
 

Supplements Needed for the Assimilation of Sulfur

Potassium, vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) and biotin.  See, also, Vitamins and Minerals for Eczema.
