Are we sulfur deficient?

The article below has been authored by Patrick McGean. Patrick has been for about eight years the Director of the Live Study Group -- the only organized group of people who have been eating organic sulfur during these eight years.

Patrick has offered this "large picture" view of the benefits of eating organic sulfur.

I, Karl Loren, am the general source of this entire web site, and it is I who owns Vibrant Life, the source of "Preventive MSM" and also "Biosulf." These two forms of organic sulfur are yet to be fully tested by Patrick McGean, or his study members, but in due course they will be offered the opportunity to test PMSM and Biosulf, and to report their findings on these web pages, without restriction or censorship.

If you are interested in what some hundreds of people have discovered, using organic sulfur, read the comments by the man who has monitored the past eight years of use of organic sulfur, Patrick McGean.

I generally accept Patrick's comments, below, as valid and instructive. They are not my words -- they are his. I do not see anything significant with which I disagree, but on a more positive note, I also see much that I agree with wholeheartedly -0- I commend this article to your study.

Since Fourwinds10 published the preliminary report on the Live Blood and Cellular Matrix Study, 7 April 2007 we have had considerable increase of new Study members show interest in our major premise: We are sulfur deficient.

The discussion of sulfur deficiency is more than just the general depletion of our soils which was first reported in the 30s, it is the Study’s opinion that chemical fertilizers which are devoid of sulfur have decreased our availability of sulfur and

other minerals which are not bio available thanks to these chemical nature of

these “plant foods.” Since these chemical fertilizers were mandated in 1954 we have seen an increase in our disease rates at a much higher rate than our population increase.

The issue is what chemistry has done to the body human for the sake of profit

with little regard to our health. Since the soils cannot produce foods that taste

good the wizards of chemistry have been making chemicals to make these foods

taste “better.” MSG is a good example. Taste is a subjective thing but cellular biology is a fact of life, good cellular biology means life and the chemical of the

lab can mean death to the body human.

Simplicity could be helpful for this discussion. BC is before chemistry, and AC

is after chemistry changed the natural order of the cycles of life. Chemistry is

not all bad, it has enabled us to better understand the natural world. Chemistry

becomes bad when it disrupts the natural world. The key to the discussion is the

effect on man, we are a selfish creature. Has our selfishness caused us harm

by the damage done to the environment in which we live.

Examples of what chemistry has done is best seen in the world of pharmacology.

When chemicals appear to benefit our health they are followed up with more

chemicals to counteract the adverse effects of those chemicals, does thalidomide

ring a bell? Today we have more and more children on psychotropic drugs so that they do not disturb their kindergarten classes. We would argue that glutathione a sulfur based amino acid could be a more sensible solution to the inability to focus on inane preschool curriculums. But our study does not have

the resources to sell drug therapy for preschoolers to the pediatricians or school

boards who have bought into the drug therapy solution to “good students.”

The same added chemicals are seen in our soil management, the addition of more chemicals to the soils. More pesticides, more petroleum based fertilizers but no crop rotation. Food has been grown naturally since the beginning of agriculture using natural methods, organic materials which allowed the soils

to replenish the minerals and micro organisms which give soil its life. Now

chemicals do it more effectively but what about the nutritional value of that

produced from these soils?

We study sulfur so the discussion will revolve around sulfur and how its necessity

as a mineral has been effected since AC.

In 1700 a Polish chemist developed a fertilizer which could be made from coal tar

and Justus Liebig a science professor is credited in what resulted when Farbin I.G. took that information and developed the first commercially viable chemical fertilizers from coal tar which was readily available in 1860.

It should have been an excellent form of organic material but for the temperature necessary to make it. Sulfur is very temperature sensitive and in almost every instance the manufacture of chemical or artificial fertilizers requires temperature greater than the vaporization temperature of sulfur.

The following are the simple observations that have been shared by our Study members which may not have occurred if the sulfur cycle were not broken.

Brushing one’s teeth with sulfur has demonstrated a reduction in gingivitis and periodontal disease.

The sulfur ingested also enhances the ability of our gastric fluids to function in a more alkaline environment. The ability to digest our food thus eliminating acid reflux, indigestion, GERD as well as other conditions which inhibit our digestive processes.

Some of the most dramatic reports have been regarding fungal and yeast infections in the stomach, Candida is thought by many practitioner to be one of the most often overlooked causes of lack of energy and depressed emotional issues, the list is all encompassing even including toenail fungus. Yeast and fungus are parasites which like all parasites rob our bodies of nutrition.

Resolution of these parasites and all parasites is a slow process but we feel

that along with their resolution the sulfur allows our stomach cell to regenerate

healthy cells formerly damaged by the pathogens. Cellular regeneration is the

key but elimination of the pathogens must come first. Giardia is a most resistant

form of gastrointestinal parasite which seems immune to the drugs of medicine. Giardia is expelled from the gastrointestinal system when it can no longer find a cell to hook into due to newly regenerated and pliable gastrointestinal cells that line our digestive tract.

Psoriasis is an embarrassing disease of our skin which the National Foundations and many sufferers believe can only be addressed topically. Have we forgotten that this condition is a viral entity? It begins at the endothelial layer of the skin and disrupts the stromal layer resulting is disfigurement of the epithelial layer. Sulfur alone has reversed and addressed the disruption with no scarring of the resulting regenerated skin. With none of side effects of the new expensive drugs which must be injected and were originally formulated for arthritis and we feel less effective that sulfur alone for both conditions. The individual mailings from

Abbott Labs who make these off labeled drugs are an example of the money

the drug companies will expend to find new markets.

The trick is time, cells regenerate slowly but continually if they can. In the case of psoriasis most of the Study members have reported a reversal of the skin lesions in a week or two. But to remain free of these lesions continued use of sulfur is necessary. Viruses do not like cells with adequate intracellular oxygen.

Sunburn? When pale skinned Scandinavians can venture out in the noon day sun and not burn when taking sulfur that could be a good thing, yes?

The continued hydration of the epithelium could be the protection for these cells

which are so prone to solar radiation. Sulfur historically has been known as the

beauty mineral and this could be an example.

Mosquito and insect bites? West Nile not withstanding, if you don’t smell good to about a mosquito they may not bite man nor beast. Or would we rather cover our bodies with long sleeves and our skin with DEET, another poison.

Rosacea many believe to be a reaction to the sun but we believe that it is a engorgement of the capillary network under the skin on the face and often on

the chest. When the engorgement of these capillaries is allowed to return to a normal capillary nature the “flush” of Rosacea is no longer an exists.

“Feeling better!” The majority, over 90% of our Study members volunteer that they just feel better. Why? We believe it is the oxygen but that is what we say about everything positive we hear regarding sulfur, sulfur enables the transport of oxygen across the cell membrane.

Constipation? What about being regular, having the waste from the food we eat

be eliminated on a very regular basis. That is a very big deal, just ask someone

who suffers from chronic constipation, most of the Study members no longer

suffer from any form of constipation.

Headaches, even migraines, even traumatic migraines? Our Study members who have had headache issues for years report a resolution to the pain. We believe that in the case of classic migraines with visual loss is the ability of the damaged or convulsed vessels in the midbrain to regenerate.

Not unlike the way the capillaries of the dermis have demonstrated in the case of Rosacea. All of our cells of all our matrices need to regenerate or they inhibit the function of the matrix, in this case that which carries our blood.

Hypertension or blood pressure issues? The pressure is determined by the physics of fluid dynamics, but the “tubes” of our cardiovascular system are not made of steel, brass or plastic and if those vessels can no longer can regenerate then our flow becomes compromised on both the arterial and venous side. We have a fixed number of blood cells once we reach maturation and those blood cells are carried in the blood vessels. When these vessels are constricted or engorged the amount of blood returning to the heard can also be compromised. Venus stasis occurs when the blood remains in the vessels of the lower anatomy rather than returning to the heart and the brain tells the heart to beat more vigorously. The brain is selfish when it comes to oxygen so when the oxygen carried by the hemoglobin is stuck in traffic all that the brain can do is tell the heart to increase its rate.

Varicose veins are the most remarkable sign of venous stasis but when the lack of cellular regeneration occurs then the issue of venous stasis becomes global especially at the capillary network. When the capillaries become dilated the issue becomes even more dramatic for the difference between systolic and diastolic pressures. The other issue not discussed with dilation is the blood will move too rapidly for the gas transfer to occur, one blood cell at a time is how it is supposed to work. With cellular regeneration the vessels can contain the flow and allow the blood to return to the heart and the blood pressure normalizes to the point where many of the Study members are no longer advised to take BP meds.

Arthritis is a given, if someone’s arthritis does not improve regarding the pain or

motility then they are not taking sulfur twice a day, or something else other than irritation of the joints may be the issue.

The Study has two HIV positive members and we believe that the increased

intracellular oxygen will halt the syndrome of AIDS and possibly cause the virus

to become dormant, this is one of those cases again where only time will tell. But the Study needs more individuals infected to participate to verify what we believe. There are no adverse effects even to the retroviral drugs that many of these people believe is their only hope of continued life. All viruses dislike intracellular oxygen and decreased viral counts will tell the tale.

The Study still feels that 20 to 30 grams of sulfur taken twice a day can reverse

the degenerative process of Hep C and other liver conditions. This is another

area where we need more people who will stop being fatalistic about their disease and who would consider their health is more important than blaming who ever they blame for having a diseased liver. That includes all of the Viet Nam Vets who believe their liver disease was caused by the Yellow Fever Vaccine they received before being shipped “in country.” The Study believes that may actually be the reason why the incidence of Hep C among Viet Nam Vets is higher than any other group world wide. Vietnamese vets have very little Hep C but suffer the same level of Agent Orange toxicity.

The above are examples of what we consider examples of how Organic Sulfur

can address sulfur deficiency which has resulted from our “modern” farming

practices and the over processing of our foods. Shelf life is good for the

manufacturers but is it good for the consumer?

The preceding are examples of returning a missing mineral, but what happens

when science and especially chemistry begins adding chemicals to the natural

order of life?

The issue with fluoride is classic example of the addition of chemical for reasons which are not clearly a benefit for our health, it benefits the seller of fluoride.

The argument is it benefits the health of our teeth. The chlorination of our water supply may be the cheapest way to “purify” our water supply and most profitable for those who supply the chlorine but fluorine and chlorine are poisons.

Byron Richards has made reported on Fourwinds10 that the “Big Pharma “owns” the FDA and the Congress.” This could be better restated that the FDA and the Congress have allowed Pharma to foot the bill for the research on the drugs they

produce. Is this a fox in the hen house scenario?

Food additives and artificial foods or even sweeteners are not unlike Vioxx

and the diabetic meds which cause elevated blood pressures and death. Since the chemists at Farbin made aspirin in the 1800s so that it could be patented rather than using white willow bark, artificial or synthesized patented chemicals

have been the rule for the sake of profit. To the best of our research white willow bark has never caused bleeding ulcers or ulcerations of the arteries of the North American Indians who have been chewing on this bark for centuries, it is all about the money.

The food additives don’t make the food healthier, possibly taste better, but they just make it last longer on the shelves without spoiling. The issue of sweeteners is possibly the most insidious. Refined cane or beet sugar cannot be assimilated by the human body without robbing other minerals from the host but it tastes “good.” Some argue that diabetes has nothing to do with refined sugar and hence why it is no longer called “sugar diabetes” but when you follow those who are diabetic who drink alcohol or eat refined sugar we see a change in their capillary network which can be attributed to all of the life threatening and vision changes which are the scare tactics of medicine, and yet medicine only suggests limiting these refined sugars without any explanation, the medications will treat

the high blood sugars. The list of other sweeteners are also suggested for diabetics Aspartame, Splenda, Sweeda, Sodium Saccharine and High Fructose Corn Syrup have all been reported as being effective without having negative side effects. That is what we have been told about being that refined sugar which is now “black labeled” in the minds of many. But these sweetener are not showing any benefit for the obesity or diabetes that they are marketed to combat.

Are sweetener are like the dentist’s friend Fluoride? They are poisons which have been allowed into our foods and tooth paste for no other reason than someone is making a lot of money in the process. But who spends the money?

Our health is our responsibility. We spend our money for health insurance when

in reality we are underwriting ill health, most insurance will not pay for preventive

medicine nor will they pay for alternative medicine. Most insurance companies will pay for drugs, and 60% of most insurance claims are for drugs which do not

“cure” the problem but rather only treat the symptoms.

We can blame whoever for our ill health but the bucks stops with what we put into our mouths, we are what we eat! It is about time we begin to realize that that expression is not just an expression but in fact a truth regarding our health. If we eat “SH*T” we should expect to feel like SH*T. If we become addicted to drugs because of what we eat we need to take responsibility for that.

If drinking chlorinated water makes you more likely to have a stroke, a theory of

the Live Blood and Cellular Matrix Study, who forced you to do so? Granted your municipal water company adds the chlorine to make the water safer but there are other ways to do so without adding chlorine, and the other now favorite poison fluoride. If you drink soft drinks and Gatorade rather than water you did so by choice, but searching the symptoms of dehydration may be an eye opener for you. Just because something is a liquid does not make it water and even if the label says X% is water does not mean our body can utilize the water the drink was made with, the hydrogen and oxygen once combined with other chemical may no longer be bio available.

We can blame Don Rumsfeld for Aspartame, are you willing to hang him for doing a great selling job? He was doing his job just as he sent our young men

and women into a war for similar false reasoning. Mr. Rumsfeld is a used car salesmen who could care less if the car runs and does not care if he ever sees the customer again. My apologies to most used car salespeople who have more

integrity than Mr. Rumsfeld. Do we blame the department of agriculture for

mandating the use of chemical fertilizers or do we blame the money from

Nelson Rockefeller or Prescott Bush which influenced Ezra Taft Benson to put

the use of these chemical plant foods into law in 1954?

Thermasol, mercury in vaccines, especially banning them was vetoed by George Bush, that is another issue, another sales job. Anyone with an Autistic child now knows the autism could have been cause by the preservative allowed in vaccines. The FDA is the only advocate of Mercury that we know of. The vaccines must be viable for at least 12 months hence the need for a preservative, but why the one mineral which is poison to all living organisms, Mercury. Autism is not genetic, in our opinion. What about case of mercury toxicity in a young brain which may have spoken prior to their mandatory second year vaccination schedule. When the smoke clears this little side effect of vaccinations will cause a great many pharmaceutical CEO to curse their desire to profit from the vaccination business.

Currently the growing number of parents with autistic children could sway any national election and people like the President ought to pay attention because parents dislike what commerce has done to their children.

Better living through Chemistry seemed to be a truism when we first saw it advertised on television by Dupont but why is chemistry needed when the cycles

of life can continue very effectively when we do not mess with them. Now that

we better understand why companies like Dupont and now BP, beyond petroleum must advertise, or like the tobacco merchants of the 50 and 60

lie to us about their products. Should we question every ad we see? I say

we should. Healthy snack food? Healthy sweeteners? Milk does a body

good, if you can look paste the hormones that have been fed to the cows.

Cellular regeneration is how we begin and how we continue until we die, for that

regeneration to be healthy then intracellular oxygen becomes necessary and the Study believes that sulfur is a necessary mineral for the oxygen transport, but as this article began; we are sulfur deficient. Are You? Are you being poisoned by

the companies who would lie about the quality of your food only for greed?

Or the worst case scenario are the drug companies trying to make us sick because it is good for business. Name one drug that has cured any disease?

The Study is interested in more participants in its observational study of sulfur.

You must be breathing and willing to discuss your health or ill health issues with

the Study directors and share photographs of your face for microscopic examination of your cellular matrices.
