MSM, sulphur

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I asked this question on the adult-metal-chelation and no-one

replied... maybe someone here can help?

I've just started undergoing a treatment plan for candida, under the

guidance of a nutritionist. She's recommended a powder to take for

leaky gut, called " Perm-a-vite " , made by the Allergy Research Group.

Among other things, it contains 160mg of MSM per dose (= tablespoon).

I was concerned about this as I am sulphur food-sensitive.

I phoned the company who supply it (Nutri-Link in the UK) and

explained, and they said that this amount was too small to be a

problem, I would have to take grams of MSM to have a bad reaction.

Does this sound right? I've never tried MSM before.

This powder also contains L-Glutamine, N-Acetyl-D- Glucosamine,

Slippery Elm, Stevia and " Glandular Complex with Epithelial Growth

Factor " (whatever that is!). Does this combination sound OK?

Thanks for any advice,

Cici

(PS I've been reading the recent posts here about sulphur food

reactions. I agree that mine are worse when chelating. Eggs are a

disaster, but even yoghurt (containing whey protein?) and certain nuts

(methionine?) cause problems. I get into a state where I can't think

or speak, for several hours. When I'm not chelating, I'm fine, even

with omlettes!)
