Limu: Sulfur ( was Natural Treatment for IBS)

[Guest guest]

Interesting. Limu. I went to www.thelimucompany.com and what I read of it's

beneficial effects made me think immediately of organic sulfur (sulfur in it's

organic, not mineral form - mine comes from pine bark). From the first day of

taking that I noticed my skin growing softer and the wrinkles disappearing. The

connections are deeper because apparently sulfur originates deep under the sea,

and volcanic eruptions bring it out into the world. It is ingested by sea

creatures and it also evaporates out into clouds and falls on the land. Limu is

a seaweed. It's 'magical' ingredient is fucoidan, according to the above

website. I looked up fucoidan and sure enough, it is a sulfated polysaccharide.

Moreover, the F-fucoidan form is >95% composed of sulfated esters of fucose.

 

According to the person I bought it off sulfur has the incredible effects that

it does have because synthetic fertilisers cause plants to be depleted in it.

According to someone else, even organic soils are depleted in it. But I think

there is more to it than that. It is essential for stage 2 of detoxification,

and with all the toxins the body has to deal with, it's not a wonder that we

have a deficiency. The person I bought it off said that it increases the

permeability of the cell membrane to oxygen, and that is why the cells of your

body rejeuvenate. But I have found that it is also an essential component of

collagen, which may be why you can try all the products on the market for your

wrinkles without effect - until you try sulfur. Remember to take plenty of

vitamin C if you are trying to build collagen - with any ingredient missing, it

cannot be made.

 

Someone was raving to me once about plankton, which you can buy. " We've NEVER

had results like these! " , he said. And he was marketing many things. I'm sure

it's the sulfur again. Sulfur is also found in Black Salt, or Krishna Laven,

found in Asian shops. This is the mineral form. Some friends of mine really

crave it. Asians typically have luscious hair, and good skin. For these, sulfur

is needed.

 

It is funny to think of nutritional science as being cultural. In Britain, we do

not live very far away from France. But there, therapists are prescribing

silicon for it's consciousness effects, as well as it's physiological effects

(it is very 'grounding' and 'stabilising' - but only the organic form

apparently, eg. from bamboo shoots - and I think it releases you from your

past); and they are also buying a lot of sulfur, according to my supplier. In my

nutritional book which was written by a French person and a Romanian, sulfur

(written sulphur in Britain) figures amonst all the other minerals (for skin,

hair and nails; rheumatism and arthritis; and allergies). However, in my British

nutritional book, no mention is made of either.

 

If sulfur increases the permeability of the cell wall to oxygen, it shows why we

need a little bit more than is in the best foods. Oxygen in the world is going

down all the time, especially in the cities. Moreover we live a lot of the time

in oxygen-depleted rooms, and it's getting worse with all the insulation. And we

don't get enough exercise to bring us adequate amount of oxygen. There are

innumerable reasons why we need more oxygen than ever before, but are getting

less and less. Cancer thrives in an oxygen-depleted environment.

 

I have started reading 'Anastasia' and 'The Ringing Cedars', and again the

astounding effect of pines comes up. There is a parallel between the belief

among certain Siberians that these trees 'draw in energies which are useful to

man' and the scientific fact that they are a good source of sulfur which has

come into the air from the seabed - from volcanoes.

 

The person I bought the sulfur off recommeds a teaspoon twice a day. Don't tell

him, but I can't take that much. I'm taking a break. It has a very powerful

effect. I don't know if it is identical to MSM, or just similar. It says

MethylSulphonyMethane on the pot - but I'm sure he told me it wasn't the same.

Anyway, many people take MSM for joint pain - arthritis etc. - but in minute

quantities. Buying it in bulk reduces the cost. The 500g pot I bought costs $25

($20 in plastic bag) but would be $160 if packaged in tiny capsules (I'm

translating from £ to $, and missing out postage). I actually want to buy a

sackful - if anyone has any ideas, let me know.

 

The person I bought from says he is doing research, looking at improvements in

skin and scars at the cellular level using digital photography.
