Why Every "Body" Needs This.....


Every cell of your body needs "nutritional" sulfur. Sulfur is important to cellular respiration, as it is needed in the oxidation-reduction reactions that help the cells utilize oxygen, which aids brain function and all cell activity. A deficiency of sulfur can cause:

  • poor nails and hair growth
  • unhappy skin
  • poor muscle tone
  • weakened nervous system
  • arthritis
  • constipation
  • lowered libido

Sulfur deficiency steals "methione" from less important parts of our body …. aka nails and hair. Methione is where "glutathione" comes from which is where we get HGH which is responsible for keeping us feeling young, skinny and wrinkle free.

Detoxes Heavy Metals (pesticides and other environmental toxins)
  • heavy metals are "fat-soluble" (think brain)
  • difficult for immune system to process
  • sulfur molecule attaches to the heavy metal changing its composition now to "water-soluble" (drink your water!)

Methylsulfonylmethane, or MSM, is a naturally occurring compound in foods such as fresh vegetables, meat, and dairy products and provides a source of natural sulfur.  It is also a building block for the detoxifying molecule, "glutathione".  I checked the ingredients in popular brands of MSM and the ingredients were very simple: MSM and vegetable or magnesium stearate and gelatin.  

The one I personally use, however, is Sulfurzyme by Young LIving and this is why:

Contains Ningxia Wolfberry Powder 
  • each berry is a complete source of minerals
  • sulfur metabolization requires calcium
  • calcium metabolization requires magnesium
  • magnesum metabolization requires potassium
  • potassium metabolization requires phosphorous…..(get the picture?)
First, I want to get the most out of my supplements as I can.  

Second, I do not want the side effects of something not metabolizing properly or too slow.  None of the other brands I researched contained anything to help metabolize the sulfur.  

Another benefit of Sulfurzyme is that it also contains pre- and pro-biotics which, as we know, are great for digestive support.  Sulfurzyme is so safe pet owners love giving it to their fur babies. 

Capsule or Powder?
  • MSM is tough to break down when it is dry. Being in the capsule, it enters the body dry so less is being absorbed, therefore, more is needed to be ingested.
  • The powder is meant to be mixed in a liquid which softens the MSM making it more palatable.  The body will utilize more of it, so less is needed to be ingested.

My Freedom Journey

 
People, including doctors, thought we were crazy...all in our heads.  After all, how could normal, every day household and personal product smells affect your ability to function, to cause you to be incoherent and feel shaky inside, to have an emotional break-down?  Inside we were dying.  Outside we appeared normal. 
Fragrances were, and are, part of every day, normal life.....candles, laundry, cleaning, perfumes.  Everyone and their neighbor used them.  For us, we either had to isolate ourselves or suffer the following day or two with a toxic hangover.  Isolation is never a good option, especially with children.  During the summer it was impossible to go outside without inhaling someone's laundry or the recent lawn product application.  My husband was so bad one summer that he could eat constantly and, yet, still lose weight.  Every month I would get a sinus infection and/or chest congestion. 
Then came the food sensitivities and autoimmune disorders.  How could food cause my ears to be red and hot, my cheeks to flush, and cause my entire body to break out multiple times in a horrendous, red, itchy, inflamed rash only to burn when scratched and ooze yellow, sticky fluid?  Imagine, every day having gauze pads over the majority of your body under your clothes and hoping the rash doesn't drain so much that it soaks through your clothes.  It would take months to disappear.  People said "just get a cortisone/steroid shot" for relief.  They could not understand why that was not my choice
By discovering and eliminating my many triggers, finding a new, non-toxic way to support my immune system, my liver, and my thyroid, I have not had a major skin breakout for about 3 yrs and have been able to manage my autoimmune disorders without the use of standard medication. 
I finally found a way to acquire "Freedom from Toxins", "Freedom to Achieve Wellness", and "Freedom to Choose".
