Sulphur
How to Use It
No recommended intake levels have been established for sulphur. Since most Western diets are high in protein, the majority of diets probably supply enough sulphur.
Where to Find It
Most dietary sulphur is consumed as part of certain amino acids in protein-rich foods. Meat and poultry, organ meats, fish, eggs, beans, and dairy products are all good sources of sulphur-containing amino acids. Sulphur also occurs in garlic and onions and may be partially responsible for the health benefits associated with these items.1
Most of the body’s sulphur is found in the sulphur-containing amino acids methionine, cysteine, and cysteine. Vitamin B1, biotin, and pantothenic acid contain small amounts of sulphur.
Possible Deficiencies
Deficiencies of sulphur have not been documented, although a protein-deficient diet could theoretically lead to a deficiency of sulphur. Low levels of cystine, and therefore possibly sulphur, were reported many years ago in people with arthritis, but this association is far from proven.2
