You need sulfur to build the protein, collagen, that helps hold your body's parts together. It also helps your liver with bile creation. Along with the B vitamins, sulfur works for basic body metabolism. Found in insulin, sulfur keeps your energy levels stable. It also works in heparin, a vital blood-thinning factor found in your liver and tissues.
Sulfur also helps build the vital amino acids cysteine, cystine, taurine, and methionine.
May help alleviate arthritis. Strict vegetarians who eat no eggs at all are at risk for not getting enough sulfur.
