Yellow Flowers of Sulphur

INGREDIENTS: Organic Yellow Flowers of Sulphur, no fillers

SUGGESTED USE: You can apply flowers of sulphur directly to your skin as a dry powder. Shake it on, rub it in, or use a powder puff or a flour shaker. Use it like talcum powder. (note: Hope Creek does not recommend talcum powder as it is harmful to both skin and lungs). When using it on your skin, test it with a small quantity at first, and then use whatever quantity seems to be effective for your particular situation.

Flowers of sulphur can be used internally, and traditionally it is taken with molasses (treacle). A small pinch, less than the size if a match head, is mixed with a teaspoon of molasses and that is suficient dose for one day. Normally it is not taken for more than three days in a row. When used internally it has a mild laxative effect. Warning - test with very small amounts before taking yellow sulfur internally. A very few people react strongly to it.

You can mix FOS with skin oils and skin creams, for use on your own skin.To make an ointment, use coconut oil, palm oil, petroleum jelly, olive oil, cocoa butter or any other skin oil as you need. Slowly warm the oil to melt it, add 2 or 3 tablespoons of sulphur powder to a cup of oil, mix well and allow to cool.

Children, pregnant women and those who are breastfeeding should not use FOS without medical supervision because little is known about its possible effects on the fetus, infant or child.

*Flowers of sulphur is not the same as MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), which is also a source of sulphur. MSM is synthetic and therefore not recommended. Be careful to avoid wearing silver jewelry while applying sulfur to the skin as any granules that contact the precious metal will turn it black.

Sources of sulphur for health:
Sulphur is a critical nutrient that is neglected an all but forgotten, even though it is the eighth most common element by mass in the human body. Even though sulphur is basically ignored in nutritional circles, it is nonetheless a critical nutrient and one that is necessary for vibrant health and prevention of many degenerative diseases.

Those countries with the highest levels of sulphur in the soil, and whose people and animals eat sulphur-rich foods, tend to have the healthiest populations. Greece, Italy and Japan are the primary suppliers of sulphur to the rest of the world, and they enjoy some of the lowest rates of heart disease and obesity in their human population. Their people also enjoy some of the longest lives on the planet.

The people who live traditional lives on volcanic islands such as Iceland and Indonesia, have remarkably low rates of depression, obesity, diabetes, heart disease and many other degenerative diseases. Some scientists thought that the Icelandic diet was protective against these diseases because of a high intake of fish, but further research showed that those Icelanders who moved to Canada and continued eating a lot of fish did not continue to enjoy the same low rates of these diseases.

Sulphur should be found in the foods we eat. However, in 1954, when chemical feritilizers were mandated by the U.S. government, the sulphur cycle was broken. The use of chemical fertilizers, toxic pesticides and herbicides, prohibited plants from receiving the sulphur from the soil. Therefore it is greatly lacking in the foods we consume.

Foods rich in sulphur. Egg yolks are the richest food source of sulphur. Many plant foods such as onions (not for dogs), turnips, kale, garlic and cabbage contain sulphur, but the amount of sulphur is low unless the plants are grown in sulphur-rich soil. Beacuse humans and animals do not produce sulphur, nor can it be stored, it must be consumed on a daily basis.
