- Rich Vit Deficiency/sulfate metabolism

[Guest guest]

Rich..

Looks like a Vitamin D deficiency can cause problems

with normal sulfate metabolism. Barb

Some people also have the pathway

to sulfate inhibited at the enzyme sulfite oxidase, sometimes

because of a molybdenum deficiency. This causes them to be

sensitive to essentially all foods or supplements containing

sulfur,

because sulfite builds up and produces symptoms.

Hi Rich,

How do these symptoms manifest themselves? Curious,

because sulfur seems to be in almost everything, especially

meat and dairy...

Thanks
