Some Lyme patients often mention sulfer sensitivity so we gathered some information in hopes it may help you. I was taught Zinc, copper, selenium, iron(very small amounts)....these minerals are all important for sulfur metabolism.
"MOLYBDENUM RELIEVES AND PREVENTS SULFITE SENSITIVITY
Sulfites are sulfur-containing molecules commonly used in the food industry to keep food looking fresh. They are typically used as anti-browning agents, antioxidants, and preservatives."
"Today’s blog is an explanation of the differences between sulfur, sulfa drugs, sulfites and sulforaphane."
"In my client population, I’ve observed that SIBO, general gut dysbiosis other than SIBO, chronic infections such as Lyme disease, and mast cell activation disorder often precede the onset of dietary sulfur sensitivity."
"You need sulfur. You can’t completely avoid it."
"To understand sulfur and sulfide mineral sensitivity, first it is important to understand what sulfates, sulfites, and sulfide minerals are, how you might be exposed to them, and the difference between various sulfur compounds."
"In this article, I will describe what triggered me to learn more about sulfur, how sulfur is essential to the body, what are the symptoms of sulfur intolerance and how to treat it."
"Molybdenum is a cofactor for the enzyme sulfite oxidase. This enzyme is responsible for converting the sulfite (which is toxic), to inorganic sulfate. It is expressed in most tissues, especially the liver, kidney, muscle, but also in the intestine."
