What does organic sulphur do in the body?
Did you know that sulphur is the third most abundant element (after magnesium and calcium) in your body? You can find the mineral in your muscles, connective tissue, hair and nails. Organic sulphur in particular plays a major role in your body. As a component of other substances such as amino acids, enzymes, hormones and glutathione, an adequate supply of organic sulphur in your diet is important. Organic sulphur also acts as a structural building block for proteins and your connective tissue. The difference between organic sulphur and inorganic sulphur is that inorganic sulphur is not linked to any other substance. Organic sulphur contains oxygen and carbon.
Organic sulphur in food
Organic sulphur is found in a variety of foods. Above all in protein sources such as meat, eggs and dairy products or in onions and garlic. With a balanced and healthy diet as a basis, you are sufficiently supplied with sulphur. Sulphur compounds in food supplements can supplement your diet.
